6.0-Liter 48-Valve DOHC V12 Engine Multipoint Sequential Fuel Injection 563bhp at 6,750rpm 7-speed Sportshift III Auto-Manual Transaxle 4-Wheel Independent Suspension 4-Wheel Carbon Ceramic Disc Brakes *Extremely powerful V12 Vantage S Roadster *Well-kept condition with less than 5,200 miles from new *Optioned from factory with a host of desirable options *Elegant Diavolo Red over Black Livery; very much 'Power, Beauty and Soul' THE ASTON MARTIN V12 VANTAGE In early 2008, Aston Martin CEO Dr Ulrich Bez confirmed that production of the V12 Vantage would commence in mid-2009, though with the 510bhp engine shared with Aston Martin's other 12-cylinder models rather than the Vantage RS prototype's 580bhp dry-sump racing unit. The classic hot-rodding technique of shoehorning a big engine into a small car is a well-trodden route to increased performance, and so it was with the V12-engined Vantage RS prototype, which combined Aston Martin's largest engine with its most compact model. Built in just four months by Aston Martin's Special Vehicle Operations department, the first prototype was unveiled by Dr Bez at the official opening of the British manufacturer's new design studio at Gaydon, Warwickshire on 11th December 2007. Dr Bez promised that a production version would be considered should there be sufficient demand; the result was a deluge of enquiries from enthusiasts eager to get their hands on what promised to be Aston Martin's fastest-ever road car. Based on the V8 Vantage Coupe, the production V12 Vantage was powered by Aston Martin's familiar 6.0-liter V12 as found in the V12 Vanquish, DB9, and DBS models. In 2013, Aston Martin announced the V12 Vantage S - a sportier version of the V12 Vantage that preceded it. The V12 Vantage S produces an astonishing 563bhp at 6,750rpm, and a massive 620 N⋅m of torque. The power is transferred to the rear wheels using a new 7-speed Sportshift III automated manual transmission, and the V12 Vantage S is claimed to be able to accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in 3.9 seconds, making it the fastest production Aston Martin at the time alongside the One-77. THE MOTORCAR OFFERED This spectacular, top-of-the-line 2017 Aston Martin V12 Vantage S Roadster is presented in the special-order AML color of Diavolo Red, over a Pure Black Contemporary Range leather interior. Nearly $40,000 in factory options was fitted when new, including carbon fiber hood meshes, exterior carbon pack, carbon interior trim, carbon paddles, lightweight forged wheels, embroidered headrests, black exhaust tips and window surround, extra Glass ECU key, and more. The new Aston Martin was completed at the impressive Gaydon Aston Martin factory in March of 2017. Destined for the US market the new V12 Vantage S Roadster carried an original MSRP of $246,006.00. Offered today with less than 5,200 miles on the odometer, the car presents extremely well inside and out, with just minimal signs of use. The Aston Martin if offered with the original leather-bound owner's manual, remote keys, the Windstop wind deflector, branded Aston Martin umbrella, and a copy of the window sticker. Stunningly beautiful in Diavolo Red, this powerful Aston Martin V12 Vantage S Roadster is bound to impress, and perfectly describes Aston Martin's motto: Power, Beauty and Soul.
