Aston Martin Vanquish 2006 Overview
The fastest production model ever to be built by Aston Martin is powered by a tuned version of the 6.0-litre V12 engine that powers the DB9, with a true clutchless manual. The standard Vanquish came in 2002, followed by the Vanquish S with the upgraded V12 in 2005. By 2006, only the S was left, which was also offered with a manual for the first time, before its eventual discontinuation. The S was complemented by subtle suspension and steering changes and a number of interior and external style revisions to the previous standard Vanquish. The Aston Martin grille apparently has a new rounded and more open appearance on the S for better cooling, and an aerodynamic splitter improves high-speed stability. At the rear, a redesigned boot lid featuring a new high mounted stop lamp reduces lift. All the exterior body panels are constructed from aluminium with each individual panel hand tailored to the central structure to ensure a perfect panel fit. Revised steering geometry provided a 20% quicker response, and the Sports Dynamics suspension, steering and braking package was standard on the Vanquish S. But would you take it over a Ferrari?
