does the 2007 Aston Martin V8 Vantage Roadster comes in automatic transmission?
May 22, 2007 by ahmed a | Posted in Other - Car Makes
Yes...
According to this cull out from Edmunds.com:
"The Roadster, like the coupe, is available with a selection of two transmissions. The six-speed manual transaxle is familiar and offers a express, positive and satisfying shift action. New to the V8 is the Sportshift choice, which uses an automated sequential gearbox with shift paddles mounted on the steering ring, the same ZF-built unit also featured in the DB9."

Difference between Roadster and Coupe?
Apr 04, 2009 by I want to be 165 xD | Posted in Other - Car Makes
I am looking at an Aston Martin V8 Vantage and was wondering why the roadster expense more than the coupe. There are no differences in HP or cylinder or mpg. Why is it more expensive?
I noticed that the coupe has a hardtop and roadster looks like a flexible. Doesn't the coupe have a hardtop convertible?
Convertibles are more sought after than coupes, impress on the memory more of their value, and are almost sure to be a collector item, especially on a great in extent end car. What you don't see is the engineering and creative thought put into cutting the roof, a important structural component, off a car and having it still perform well and be safe. While they may look the same, underneath they have a lot of notable differences. Desirability and engineering is where the difference is.

Which Aston Martin is the best car?
Oct 20, 2007 by Early.Sunsets.Over.Belleville. | Posted in Other - Car Makes
I True-love the V12 Vanquish, but I"m not sure if that's the car I want to buy.
Which one is the best?
DBS, DB9, V8 Vantage, V8 Vantage Roadster, or V12 Vanquish?
The V8 Vantage is the slowest, weakest, and cheapest Aston, but i like it the richest. I think it looks the best. It goes from 0-60 in 4.9 seconds and has a top shoot of 175mph.
