Overall

A car that is so good looking it doesn't really matter that it's not the highest performer in its class.

Dynamics

Sounds great, not quite as powerful as peers, handles impressively.

Comfort

Rides on the stiff side of comfortable but in the acceptable range for sports cars. Intimate cockpit may be tight for some.

Function

Lesson learned from earlier Aston efforts apparent in Vantage. Controls are more intuitive.

Design/Build Quality

Craftsmanship a cut above other mass-produced rivals. Drop dead sexy styling.

High Performer Handling is excellent and performance is near the top of its class.

Image Enhancer The limited number of Vantages on the road makes it a real head-turner.
