Product Overview

Aston Martin Vantage Roadster is a compact convertible sports car in production from 2006 to 2018. It was available with a range of V8 and V12 engines that displaced 4.3 to 5.9 liters.
One of the sportiest Aston Martins ever made, the Vantage was what many enthusiasts gravitated to. The Roadster further enhances the driving experience by giving the driver the top-down option. Notably, the V12 Vantage and V12 Vantage S could be configured with manual transmissions: the V12 Vantage S even came with a 7-speed manual, which is the ultimate luxury convertible sports car made in the last decade.
