New Vantage ordered
I finally gave up on my SL63 and ordered the new 2025 Aston Martin Vantage. Highly tweaked same engine with significant power increase and design features. With my new engine, the SL has performed well and still looks great, but the total engine failure lost my allegiance. It's not due until December and I look forward to trying out that new engine.

Congratulations. The new Vantage will also be my next car (I’ve owned 2 Vantages and a DB11 before) The updated interior, front end, and increased H.P. are awesome.

Congrats OP very nice car, agree with the inflated prices MB had on their products, the AM is pretty much no brainer as this tier and price point.

$191,000 base plus options totaled $240,800. Probably overdid the options and a very nice build could be done for $210,000 I think.
Configuration code is T5NEWWLM7G and I think you can look it up on their configuration site for details.

Agree, thrilled with my SL63 and coming from the 2019 Vantage, my sights are squarely set on the facelift for my next car - just gorgeous and love the upgrades - Drive in good health! KH

Nice car, but one of the biggest reasons I got a SL, is the drop top.

Agree on preferring a convertible, but the Vantage Volante configuration may be six months away and I also think the coupe looks really good as is. I will probably look at the convertible version after 18 months or so.
