2021 Aston Martin Vantage Coupe: The Vantage Advantage

The Aston Martin Vantage is a name that stretches back over 70 years and nine generations. The 2021 Aston Martin Vantage has been around in its current form since 2018, and we think it's the best one yet. This two-seater sports coupe is powered by a muscle-bound 4.0-liter twin-turbocharged V8 engine borrowed from Mercedes-AMG, which delivers 503 horsepower and 505 lb-ft of torque in base configuration. With a tight chassis, impressive throttle response, and looks to kill, it's no wonder why competitors like the Porsche 911 and Mercedes-AMG GT look rather ordinary when parked alongside this British bombshell. These are a few niggles, such as an outdated infotainment system and a small trunk, but these are quickly forgotten once you get behind the wheel of 2021 Vantage Coupe.

Verdict: Is the 2021 Aston Martin Vantage Coupe A Good car?

The Aston Martin Vantage is one of those cars that doesn't need a lot of convincing to like. Just one look and most car fans will be hooked, and that's before we even start talking about how this coupe feels to drive. The 2021 Aston Martin Vantage Coupe delivers stunning performance behind the wheel, and we applaud Aston for managing to deliver a chassis worthy of the AMG V8 under the hood (which also guarantees reliability). The rear-wheel drivetrain is excellent, especially if you go with the manual gearbox, and eager drivers will be rewarded with a ton of response, feedback, and fun. Although Aston should spend some time updating its infotainment system, but the rest of the interior is beautifully appointed. Oh, and forget about trunk space. The 2021 Aston Martin Coupe's price is up there, but at this price point, most buyers won't be dissuaded. Overall, this is a charming and competent sports car with looks to kill and a soundtrack that thrills.

What Aston Martin Vantage Coupe Model Should I Buy?

Now that all 200 AMR versions have been sold out in the US, new buyers will have to choose between the base car and the F1 Safety Car lookalike with an additional 24 horses under the hood and a sweet British Racing Green paint job. We'd recommend going with the entry-level model, as it covers all the bases and leaves plenty of room for customers to customize colors, interior trim, and spec level. Any and all driver assistance options should also be added to increase the car's safety rating.
