Aston Martin’;s quickest and fiercest roadster ever.
Aston Martin could have large plans for its future models, but apparently those crafty Brits haven’t finished proliferating their current crop of speedy sexpots. This latest variation on the Aston Martin theme, the 2015 V12 Vantage S roadster, is a especially savory 1 that combines the relentless speed of the V12 Vantage S, which we drove final fall, with the exuberant open-air romance that is innate to British roadsters.

If you know anything about the V12 Vantage S coupe, none of these specs will surprise you. The naturally aspirated V-12 makes the very same 565 hp at 6750 rpm and 457 lb-ft of torque at 5750 revs in both physique designs, and it likewise comes mated solely to Aston’s third-generation 6-speed automated manual, dubbed Sportshift III. The engine supplies significantly far more scoot than the non-S V12 Vantage roadster that Aston introduced for 2013, which developed “just” 510 hp and 420 lb-ft of torque.
According to Aston Martin, the tiny 2-seater calls for a mere 3.9 seconds to hit 60 mph from a cease, .1 second longer than the coupe and .3 second faster than its manual-only predecessor, producing it the quickest series-production Aston Martin roadster in history. Prime speed is a noggin-scalping 201 mph, up a outstanding 11 mph from the original V12 Vantage roadster. Of course, we’ll reserve judgment until we have put it via our test regime. We are ready when you are, Aston.

The chassis follows the identical sportification program as the coupe, with 3-stage adaptive damping, 2 levels of energy-steering assistance, and specially created carbon-ceramic brakes. A separate Sport mode for the powertrain dials up throttle response, shift speed, and even the sound good quality of the new One particular-77–derived exhaust technique.
The ideal news is that, unlike the original V12 Vantage roadster, the S roadster is coming to the U.S., with deliveries beginning in the first quarter of 2015, according to Aston Martin. Pricing hasn’t been announced however, but do not count on much alter back from your $ 200,000 bill.
