Vehicle Description
The 2002 Aston Martin V12 Vanquish has been a classic from day one.
Built to take on the best grand touring exotics from around the
world, this has the undeniable mix of style and performance that
only a true Aston can deliver. So no matter if it's the 6.0-liter
V12 power or the coordinated leather interior, this Vanquish will
have you hooked.
The V12 Vanquish was a return to world-class Aston Martin touring
cars, and this one really does it best. After all, you know this
was squarely aimed to take down Ferraris and Lamborghinis with a
color name like Toro Red. The original paint has a terrific
radiance in the sunshine, which is what you get with a cherished
low-mileage instant classic like this example. This well-respected
feeling is seen throughout the car. The aggressive body lines with
flared fenders remain crisp. The headlight covers recall some of
the best classic racers and remain crystal clear today. The 19-inch
factory alloys look like they have never seen a curb. Even with
this much appeal, and the popularity that came from being featured
in James Bond's Die Another Day, Aston never bowed to mass
production. That's why there were less than 1,500 V12 Vanquish
coupes produced over a five-year run.
Grand touring comfort means absolute luxury for two people and the
right space to carry their luggage. Gray is a very British color,
and Aston Martin knows how to do it with style. The two-tone
leather is like a wave that starts on the door panel, and wraps
around the rear storage shelf until in settles back on the opposite
door. The dash, center console, and seats follow this same color
theme. And speaking of the seats, they have been engineered so that
you and your passenger can find the individual ideal balance of
performance bolstering and all-day comfort. And of course, like a
true Aston, there's a ton of luxury features, including automatic
climate control, power windows, keyless entry, power locks, power
mirrors, dual airbags, power steering, a premium AM/FM/CD/cassette
stereo, cruise control, and navigation. Of course, when you push
the start button, see the gauges dance, and hear the motor roar to
life, your senses know this is far more than just a luxury
machine.
The 6.0-liter V12 motor is part of Aston Martin's world-class
package. The original powerhouse is nestled into the sleek body so
snugly, that you realize Aston snuck all the power into the engine
bay they possibly could. And because this has spent its life so far
as a cherished toy, everything under the hood still looks fresh.
But don't let this ultra clean presentation keep you from adding
miles to the odometer. After all, this coupe is a true driver's
machine. The fuel-injected V12 sings a 460 hp symphony, and you
control it through the electronically operated six-speed manual
transmission. That means the total control of a true manual, but
with clutch pedal replaced by F1-style paddle shifters on the
steering wheel. As you look at the undercarriage photos, you'll see
nothing but flat panels for better aerodynamics - another
race-inspired piece that proves how serious a performance machine
this is. But you'll also be able to spot all the right features,
like the fully independent sports suspension, grippy Pirelli P-Zero
tires, and the vented four-wheel disc brakes.
Complete with owner's manual and Aston's battery tender, this is a
very well-presented low-mileage rarity. Don't miss your
opportunity, call today!
