The AMG-Engined Aston Martin V8 Vantage Growls Like A Pissed Off Demon
Aston Martin's next generation Vantage has been spotted testing once again, and its AMG-sourced powerplant certainly delivers in the sound department
While the new V12 in the DB11 is all the work of Aston Martin, the company is set to replace its Jaguar-derived 4.7-litre N/A V8 with a twin-turbo 4.0-litre unit from Mercedes-AMG.
While it doesn’t quite sound as spectacular as the outgoing engine in this test footage, it still makes a brilliantly angry noise.
What do you think?
Growing up on a diet of World Rally Championship highlights and lengthy Gran Turismo 2 sessions, a life in cars was as good as inevitable for Matt.

Sounds great, not as good as it did before though :/
Speaking of the devil…
we need a cygnet with a V8. that would make it a pint size monster
As a non English native speaker I have difficulties spelling the name of this car correctly.
i really don’t have a Q.
AMGON MARTIN?!?!
Hey look an AMG GT!
RIP Vantage V8 and GT12 😭
It is a sad year…
compared to the outgoing version..
Hope it’ll look just as beautiful as the old one
Which it doesn’t seem to…..
:c this made me cry :C
Hope Aston is modifying it because it is pointless to have a Merc engine in an Aston.
Great Aston Martin 63amg
