    No problems at all until you go to sell it. I would never buy a new one again. Horrid resale and a very limited market.

    Another thought: between the 500hp V12 and the 06-7 V8, you could opt for an '08 V8. I believe the output was increased about 40hp in the 08 model year, if you find the 07 lacking.

    I've had a v8 vantage and the v12 one. Good fun for the first few months tho eventually I found it boring and lacking soul. You can drive it everyday though and in all weather conditions!

    The other thing that annoyed me is there are sooo many around now. Every plumbing, builders, electricians directors all have them now

    The visibility in the V8 coupe is much better than the soft top. The visibility difference on the DB9 is less of a spread. The little back seats add some airiness to the overall feel of the Volante.
