It would probably pick one of these over a v8 vantage.

As much as I like the F Type, I dont think I could give up my love for the Vantage.

Same here. I think it's the best in its class of cars.

That's fucked up.
God, I hope there's someone out there with enough money to do this.

I would too, and why not? It's much cheaper and almost as good in every category.
Also, image. Consider the following exchanges between you, the owner, and someone attractive (either male or female, depending on circumstance).
Q - "What kind of car do you drive?"
A - "An Aston Martin V8 Vantage"
Q - "So, you're a stockbroker? What's it like being the 1%?"
or...
Q - "What kind of car do you drive?"
A - "I drive an F-Type Jaaaaaaaag."
Q - "Oooh, is that the one that looks like that car from the 60s?"
A - "Yes. Maybe we can go for a ride, then back to my place for drinks."
Q - "Sure!"

Oh I definitely would. The interior alone is much better. Not to mention this is faster and prettier and newer and cheaper and probably more reliable and better handling and sexier and just everythinger which is now a word.

It's basically a license to do whatever the sexual equivalent of printing money is.

Although, the V8 makes more power than the V12...and is likely much lighter. As much as it would be awesome, it might also suck. If you could somehow coax the V12 past 600 hp, it might be worth it. Especially if bolted to a manual tranny. Requirement...shift knob must be the same anodized orange aluminum as the shift paddles and start/stop button. I would literally cry of happiness at the very sight.

Honestly the F-type looks better than any modern Aston Martin not just the Vantage.

It is a beautiful piece of kit. Would dragon while making the Aston watch in the corner.

The Aston is a great looking car, but this is the new hotness. And more affordable.

You don't need 600+ hp. I would get the V12 for the godly sound alone.

I'm with you ... only if I can get the Coupe, though.

Normally I would too....although it might kind of wreck the car's balance. Not sure how much the AM V12 weighs vs. the supercharged Jag 5.0. I should go look that up actually
