2013 Aston Martin V8 Vantage S Roadster

INTRODUCTION: An Aston Martin Vantage S Roadster offers something few cars can- a perfect blend of exotic performance, timeless British elegance, and the unforgettable sound of a naturally aspirated V8. This exceptional example has just 6,525 original miles, a clean Carfax, only two owners, and presents in virtually pristine condition.

EXTERIOR: The Vantage S Convertible blends elegant British styling with unmistakable sports car performance. Finished in stunning Stratus White from the Contemporary Collection, this example is in immaculate condition. The paint is glossy and virtually flawless- I didn't find any noticeable chips or imperfections. The glass is crystal clear, and the rubber seals are soft and well preserved. It features projector beam headlights, clear LED taillights, a carbon fiber front splitter and tail panel, and the optional bright finish grille that adds just the right amount of contrast. It's equipped with optional 19-inch 10 spoke wheels with color matched accents wrapped in high-performance tires. Completing the look is the optional tan power cloth top from Aston Martin's Contemporary Collection, along with the removable wind deflector that easily snaps into place for comfortable top down cruising.

INTERIOR: The interior is every bit as elegant as you'd expect from an Aston Martin. It's wrapped in beautifully tailored, hand stitched premium Bridge of Weir leather, selected from the finest hides for an exceptionally soft, luxurious feel. This example was specially ordered in contemporary designer colors, complemented by the optional Tamo Ash wood fascia for a rich, modern look. One of the most memorable parts of owning an Aston Martin is starting it. Instead of turning a key, you insert the crystal Emotion Control Unit into the center of the dash and press it home. The naturally aspirated V8 instantly comes to life with an exhilarating growl, making every start up feel like a special occasion. It features glass crystal style switches, power seats with memory, power windows, navigation, Bluetooth, cruise control, and the optional 700-watt Aston Martin Premium Audio System with a CD changer. Every surface reflects Aston Martin's attention to detail, creating a cockpit that's both luxurious and unmistakably British.

ENGINE COMPARTMENT: It is as impressive as the rest of the car- clean, original, and completely factory stock. At its heart is Aston Martin's hand built 4.7-liter naturally aspirated V8, producing 430 horsepower and 361 lb-ft of torque. Its dry sump lubrication system allows the engine to sit lower in the chassis for improved balance while ensuring proper lubrication under spirited driving. Free of turbochargers, this V8 delivers instant throttle response and one of the most exhilarating exhaust notes you'll ever hear. The engine bay is immaculate and unmodified, exactly the way enthusiasts hope to find an Aston Martin of this caliber.

TRUNK COMPARTMENT: It opens by pushing the small chrome button on the trunk lid or using the key fob. It is fully carpeted and exceptionally clean, reflecting the meticulous condition of the entire car. Everything is pristine, right down to the optional Aston Martin umbrella neatly stored in its factory location- a classy finishing touch that's quintessential Aston Martin.

UNDERSIDE: It is exceptionally clean and well preserved. It features a fully independent aluminum suspension with Bilstein shocks for precise handling and four-wheel disc brakes with massive ventilated rotors and optional silver calipers. Sport mode sharpens throttle response and opens the exhaust for an even more aggressive driving experience. A rear mounted 7-speed Sportshift II transaxle and a 4.18 limited slip differential provide near perfect weight distribution, while the factory stainless dual exhaust delivers the incredible sound only a naturally aspirated Aston Martin V8 can produce.
