So we can consult it and not get confused whenever we see one. Or talk about them.
Honestly. Can you distinguish them from afar? If someone mentioned the V12 Vantage. Would you know which one it is? And where it sits in the range?
911s and Caymans are pretty easy. BMWs, depending on the angle can get pretty confusing. Especially considering the F30's size. Audis are very confusing, too. But still, with not too much information you get hints enough to distinguish a 4 from a 6.
Someone will probably take their time tell me I'm stupid. But Google doesn't lie. And don't get me wrong. I still have the opinion Aston Martins are the most beautiful cars currently made. Hands down.
And let's play a game. Name these Astons by heart. This is not a test to check your Jalop Credentials. We all know that Jalop Credential tests are made with random questions about Miatas and old Mercs.
Answers:
1-V8 Vantage, 2-Vanquish Volante, 3 DB9, 4-DB9 Volante, 5-Rapide, 6-V8 Vantage, 7-V12 Vantage Roadster (nope, not Volante), 8-Vanquish, 9-V8 Vantage S Roadster, 10-V12 Vantage S, 11-V8 Vantage Roadster, 12-Vantage N430

That's another good one.
Last week I was waiting for some gentle car to allow me to cross the street (it doesn't have a stop sign or light, just a pedestrian crossing), a car stopped. The guy waved his hand, to sign I could pass. I nodded in appreciation and thought "what a nice Fusion driver". Until I heard that Rapide roar.
I like to think he was being nice. But a part of me thinks he just let me cross so he had an excuse to plant his foot on the loud pedal (which isn't really a bad thing).

I've edited the answers in the post. I had to triple check the answers, and it's still probably not correct.
