Hello,

I don't know if this is a post for "Competition" or "Lounge" so forgive me if I placed it wrong

Does anyone know a good forum for Aston Martin (especially V8 Vantage roadster)?

Thanks,

Postel

Did you get the Aston? I remember your post when you were looking at the Aston plus a few others. Let us know!

Thanks for the interest!!

We have tested the R8, the Carrera 4s and the Aston.

It is probably going to be the Porsche or the Aston.

We are considering the limited edition aston (N400) convertible...Maybe also testing the 911 Turbo...

I think the decision is going to be next week but I think the Aston is going to win...The only negative on the N400, is that the leather is always black...

I have a 911 and test drove the Aston. It's looks are like sex on wheels. There's nothing more beautiful on the road. But dynamically, I don't think it compares to the Porsche. I went back for a second test drive just to be sure (I really, really wanted to like it), but unforturnately I was right the first time.

Be sure to post pics of the beautiful lady - Aston or Porsche!!

Yeah, you're right!!!

If you want the looks, go for the Aston...If you want a dream to drive, it's the Porsche...

But the Aston looks soooooo good...

We are thinking of buying the limited edition N400...They say it drives like a dream (Nurburgring in less than 8 minutes)...

We just returned from Monte' Carlo and let me tell you....the Aston is a beautiful car. Knowbody even gives the Porsches a second look there, but the Aston draws a crowd and stares from everyone. Good luck!

Does anybody know the price of the N400 Vantage convertible? Because prices are different in different countries, also mention the price for the normal vantage convertible please, so I can see how much % it costs more...
