fantastic preview, this will be the AM to hold onto for a while it sounds like...so are the seats more or less comfortable than the CSL's?

Bad news is that B&O will only be an option on cars that go into build from 1 September onwards. Disappointing, but not a train smash. I'd rather be listening to that V12 than the stereo and I get to save some money :lol:
Yea I think you are right there Mike you wont even listen to the sound system much with that V12 up front. And by not having the B&O system you will not only be saving money but weight too, both of which are good things to be saving :smilie:

Will there be any in the U.S.?

The lightweight seats are far more comfortable than the CSL's, but that is another category of car. I think I'm going to change my order to regular seats, prefer GT comfort for this car as it will be utilized far more.

As far as I know, it will not be making it to US shores. Hence why they are only making 1000.

Great review!!

That pic with the hood open --- is it me or does it look like the V12 Vantage has a rib cage and sternum lurking under there! Those intake runners are immense! :lol:

Thanks for great review. As I understand the main purpose of this car is not being raced against GT2 or Scuderia, but to be driven and enjoyed.

Congrats on getting your V12 Mike. I will never be tired of repeating that your specs are the best ever possible on this car.
