The Vantage name has been associated with high-performance versions of Aston Martin’s grand-touring models since the mid-1960s, beginning with the 1961 DB4 inline-6-powered coupe that made a certain British spy a household name. In the years that have passed, the Vantage’s power source has doubled the number of cylinders to the 12 that now line up in V formation beneath the vented hood of this Jet Black 2012 Aston Martin V-12 Vantage. In fact, it’s the Gaydon, UK, manufacturer’s largest engine, tucked into its smallest GT coupe, a straightforward naturally aspirated device devoid of such complexities as variable valve timing and direct injection.
That might sound overly simple compared to many of today’s hyper-complex performance automobiles, but it delivers 510 HP at 6,500 RPM and 420 lb-ft of torque at 5,750 RPM (copious servings of real-world power) through a 6-speed manual transaxle and a sturdy limited-slip differential to 19×11-inch rear silver forged-aluminum wheels fitted with Vantage-specific Pirelli P-Zero tires. The performance enabled by this combination is formidable: 0-60 MPH comes up in 4.2 seconds, and the Vantage tops out at 190 MPH.
The Vantage is an athletic machine with taut handling thanks to 4-wheel independent suspension using upper and lower A-arms, coil springs and the electronically controlled shock absorbers that are part of its dynamic stability-control system and carbon-ceramic ventilated disc brakes—complete with yellow-painted calipers—for immense stopping power. It is also as well appointed as one would expect from a hand-built, bespoke Aston Martin, its quality Jet Black exterior finish matched inside with Obsidian Black Connolly leather, Alcantara headliner and accents, and Piano Black wood veneers.
Accessorized with air conditioning, heated front seats with memory, pop-up navigation, Aston Martin Premium Audio, Bluetooth and Satellite radio capability, and steering-wheel audio controls, this V-12 Vantage coupe is exceptionally fresh at just 1,480 miles and a worthy heir to the Aston Martin Vantage name.
