Aston Martin Vantage
The Vantage still comes in coupe and roadster versions with V8 and V12 engines. These speed demons can seat only two people, and they favour sportiness over comfort. The 4.7L V8 delivers 420 horsepower (430 for the S), while the V12 engines produce 510 and 565 horsepower (the latter for the S coupe). Want an Aston Martin but you don’t have the means? The V8 Vantage, at $150,000, is the least expensive. They’re practically giving it away!
