    2007 Aston Martin V8 Vantage

    VIN - SCFBB03B87GC04454


    6-Speed Manual / 3 Peddle Car

    Exterior Color: Tungsten Silver
    Interior Color: Red Fox

    20,850 Miles from new




    I purchased this car in early 2017 through a Southern California Maserati dealer whom took it on trade from the original owner. The car stayed in Southern CA until I moved it to Scottsdale AZ in the spring of 2018 where it currently resides. These cars are such a value in todays market. Excellent condition true manual transmission cars with low miles are getting hard to find.

    Pros


    1. Manual 6-Speed Transmission/3 peddle car
    2. One of the best color combos
    3. 2007+ has much better seats
    4. Quick Silver Stage 3 cat back exhaust (it’s pretty loud, but in a good way)
    5. Upstream O2 sensors recently replaced
    6. Fluids changed yearly (Motul Synthetic)
    7. Aftermarket IPhone connecter/Sat radio (hidden)
    8. Fresh Michelin 4S tires 08/2017
    9. Condition is excellent for a driver
    10. CTEK batter tender installed and included
    11. Everything in the car works well
    12. Redpants TPMS delete (reversible)
    13. Records binder included
    14. Just passed AZ emissions check 11/2020
    15. 2 Keys/remotes in great shape.
    Cons

    1. Ding on the carfax for a parking lot accident. A car backed into the drivers side door (previous owner). Repairs done by Aston Martin (Sticker notation in door jam).
    2. Small/light dings along the passenger door. My guess is the previous owner parked daily driver next to it in the garage and wasn’t very careful.
    3. Minor scratched and nicks in paint from regular road wear and tear.
    4. Minor nicks in the leather from watches or rings. Can easily be touched up
    5. Nav screen stays in down position (on purpose). I will include replacement gears if new owner wishes to repair, but the Volvo NAV is terrible and looks better down.
    6. No service records from previous owner and missing owners manual.

    You should post some interior photos - a Red Fox interior looks awesome. What color carpets?

    I will as soon as I get the car out of storage. The Fox Red is amazing against the Toungsten. I would call the carpet Dark Grey, like the dash and part of the door panels.

    I have one of these cars. I purchased her three years ago and cannot believe how underrated these cars are.
    I do not know this car or the seller but really these are great fun cars

    Couldn’t agree more, but sadly I need the space and don’t have the time. Most likely I will circle back down the road. I had a Vanquish S, but liked this car a lot more.

    I had one of these as well - big fun, equal to a Porsche 911 of the same era in performance. Only negative they are tough to reverse as you can't see out the back. Great price, there is a lot of car here for $ 48K. A little Vantage trick, pull out fuse # 22 out of the back and it opens up the exhaust tone to make it superb, no need to install an aftermarket pipe. GLWS.

    That would be true if it had a stock exhaust, however the OP said the car has an aftermarket Quicksilver exhaust so no need to pull Fuse #22. I have a Quicksilver exhaust on my Vantage and the sound is absolutely glorious.

    Tungsten Silver is one of the prettiest colors I have seen. It has just a touch of green in it. Saw one of these examples in person - in Southern California, BTW.

    Just absolutely gorgeous in that color with those standard wheels.

    IMHO

    What is a "3 Peddle Car"? Is it car from the PEDDLE car buying service? If so, what extra fees are associated with the sale? [www.peddleDotCom]
    I assume you mean to write "3 pedal car".

    Great price for the car. Good luck with the sale.

    I cannot believe this car is still available!!!
    As I have said , I own a similar car and they are truly great, stylish, and fun to drive.
    I actually prefer the 4.3 motor as is allows you to rev the engine more and get higher up in the power band.
    These cars are a treat!!!

    That’s a good assumption. My apologies for not catching the grammatical error. The car has 3 pedals. Often people/dealers list sport-shift cars as having a “manual transmission.”
