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?

Not bad, but if you were to directly compare that to the strongest n/a version (gt8), im pretty sure you wouldn’t be able to hear the new one. That’s for the “normal” n/a as well
