The first-generation Aston Martin Vantage carved out a unique place in the world of performance cars by combining compact proportions, rear-wheel drive, and soulful naturally aspirated engines. Starting with the 4.3L V8 at 380 hp, the car evolved into a more potent 4.7L version, but it was the introduction of the V12 that transformed the Vantage into something truly fearsome. The final evolution—the V12 Vantage V600—offered a 603 hp, manual-only sendoff with motorsport-inspired tuning and bespoke bodywork.

Performance wasn’t just about numbers—it was about feel. The Vantage’s hydraulic steering, balanced chassis, and low driving position delivered purity rarely found in modern sports cars. V12 models upped the drama with savage acceleration, a brutal soundtrack, and razor-sharp throttle response. The Vantage remained analogue even as rivals turned digital, offering a raw, connected experience for drivers who valued feedback over automation.

Visually, the Vantage matured from minimalist coupe to muscular bruiser. Wider tracks, aggressive bumpers, bonnet vents, and optional aero packs defined the V12 variants. Inside, it blended old-school charm with high-quality materials—leather, aluminum, and carbon fiber set the tone. Whether in V8 or V12 form, the first-gen Vantage stood for purity, performance, and presence—culminating in the rare and remarkable V600, a proper swan song for a modern classic.

Model Name Meaning (Manufacturer)

“Vantage” is one of the oldest and most iconic names in Aston Martin’s history, dating back to performance versions of the DB series in the 1950s and '60s. This 2005–2018 model, internally known as AMV8, redefined the Vantage badge as a compact, focused sports car, distinct from the larger DB9 and DBS grand tourers.

Model Name Meaning (Languages)

“Vantage” refers to a strategic advantage or high ground — a concept that translates well internationally, suggesting speed, sharpness, and an upper hand. The name is used universally without adaptation.

Body & Interior Colors and Rims

The Vantage was offered in a huge variety of colors including Tungsten Silver, Meteorite Grey, Lightning Silver, Stratus White, and later vibrant shades like Madagascar Orange, Alloro Green, and China Grey. Q by Aston Martin enabled virtually any custom finish.

Interiors came in Obsidian Black, Sahara Tan, Chancellor Red, Bitter Chocolate, and duotone combinations with Alcantara inserts, contrast stitching, and carbon fiber trim. Vantage S and V12 models featured carbon splitters, diffusers, and hood vents, along with sport seats and embroidered headrests.

Wheels ranged from 19" five-spoke alloys to lightweight 20" forged multi-spokes in graphite, diamond-turned, or satin black finishes.

Top Expensive Options

  • Carbon Ceramic Brake System (V12/V8S optional) – $12,000
  • Bang & Olufsen BeoSound Audio – $8,000
  • Carbon Interior Pack (console, door trim) – $4,500
  • Full Leather Color Split with Quilted Stitching – $3,000
  • Sports Seats with Memory & Heat – $2,200
  • Gloss Black / Carbon Side Strakes & Roof Panel – $2,500
  • Q by Aston Martin Bespoke Paint or Interior Stitching – $5,000–$20,000
  • 7-speed Sportshift II (V8 S / V12 S) – standard or optional depending on model
  • Custom Embroidered Headrests (AM Wings / Vantage S) – $750
  • Sports Exhaust System (titanium tip, louder bypass) – $3,000

vs Competitors

The Vantage faced rivals like the Porsche 911 (997/991), Audi R8, BMW M6, and Jaguar F-Type R. The V8 models were praised for their balance, usability, and iconic design, while the V12 variants were celebrated for delivering raw, analog thrills with a soundtrack unmatched in its class. While not as fast as a 911 Turbo or as tech-heavy as an R8, the Vantage won drivers over with character, emotional connection, and handmade charm.

Fun Fact

The V12 Vantage was originally not intended for production, but strong demand after a concept reveal pushed Aston Martin to squeeze a massive V12 into the V8 chassis, with only minor alterations. It became one of the most beloved purist driver’s cars in Aston history — especially the late-run V12 Vantage S Manual with a dogleg 7-speed gearbox.
