Aston Martin Vantage Specs, Engines & Dimensions (2005–2008)

Aston Martin Vantage Engines and Transmissions

A typical Aston Martin Vantage engine here is the naturally aspirated 4.3-litre gasoline V8, driving the rear wheels. You choose between a conventional manual gearbox, as in the 4.3 MT Coupe, and the automated Sportshift single-clutch transmission fitted to Coupe and Roadster alike, which shifts via steering-column paddles.

Aston Martin Vantage Trims and Equipment

Aston Martin Vantage trim levels sit on top of a technical version rather than replacing it: the 4.3 MT Coupe, for example, is catalogued under the V8 Vantage equipment configuration. Specification differences usually cover upholstery, wheels, audio and driver aids, while the mechanical package stays the same.
