Re: For MaxT and other aston martin lovers!!
Hi Alex, sorry for the late reply but I just saw this thread!
Yes, you are right...when I was reading all the magazines that tested the Vantage, I was so excited about what they claimed "the best engine sound of the entire world!".
But, when I was able to finally test drive the car, I felt a bit disappointed...well, to tell you the thruth, the Vantage have a very nice sound, but nothing compared to the experience of driving a DB9, without roof, in a tunnel...

Anyway that was my impression inside the car! Few weeks ago, I met a guy in a V8 and I followed him for a bit...that was an insane experience!! The sound from outside is just glorious, nothing compared to what I heard when I was inside the car!!
Cheers,
Max T.
P.s. In my hopinion, the V8, right now, is the best looking car money can buy!! Unfortunately she lacks a bit of power, but a "S" version, with a compressor engine, is rumored to come next year!
