The inspiration behind it is its namesake class SP10 in the VLN series, in which GT4 racing cars compete at the Nürburgring.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"></div><div style="text-align: justify;">The Aston Martin Vantage SP10 is offered in a bespoke specification that reflects its close affinity with the racing car.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Jeffrey L. Scott, Managing Director of Aston Martin Lagonda of Europe: "Aston Martin has a long and successful tradition in motorsport. Since in the GT4 class the technical similarities between racing cars and their road model cousins are extremely pronounced, many of our customers see their own Aston Martin as a way to identify with our motorsport activities, or they actively participate as 'gentlemen drivers'.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"></div><div style="text-align: justify;">"With the new Vantage SP10 we are now offering a V8 Vantage S with a special motorsport and race track flair - at a competitive price point."</div><div style="text-align: justify;"></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><b>Impressive performance and, for the first time, manual six-speed transmission</b></div><div style="text-align: justify;"></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Technically, the Vantage SP10 is almost identical to the V8 Vantage S but with the addition, for the first time, of a six-speed manual transmission.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Since its market launch in 2011, the V8 Vantage S has developed into a popular model for Aston Martin customers, a model that places an even greater emphasis on sportiness. With its 4.7-litre V8 engine, which produces 436 PS and 490 Nm on the road, the V8 Vantage S manages 0-100 km/h in 4.5 seconds and reaches a top speed of 305 km/h. This sportiness is enhanced by its striking appearance, which took inspiration from the V12 Vantage, and the sensational sound from the engine, which comes thanks to the sports exhaust with active bypass valves which was specifically developed for this model.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"></div><div style="text-align: justify;">The Aston Martin Vantage SP10 is the first V8 Vantage S to feature a six-speed manual transmission. This manual gearbox is offered as standard and, as with the V8 Vantage, will impress those who enjoy pure sports car driving.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Alternatively, customers can choose the optional Sportshift™ II automated manual seven-speed transmission that was developed for the introduction of the V8 Vantage S. This transmission allows for gear changes that are around 20% quicker than the previous transmission, which worked with six gears. This additional gear brings about shorter transmission ratios and optimum gear shifting. And the result: faster acceleration and a more sporty driving experience.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"></div><div style="text-align: justify;">With the V8 Vantage S, Aston Martin has further closed the gap between road cars and racing cars. Like its role model, the Vantage GT4 racing car, it has an extremely rigid aluminium chassis - the ideal platform for a racing car but also the perfect basis for a sporty road car.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Impressive performance, dynamic driving characteristics and superb handling transform the V8 Vantage S, and thus the Vantage SP10, into a sports car that delivers a true 'fun factor' for enthusiast drivers of all kinds.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><b>Design inspired by motorsport</b></div><div style="text-align: justify;"></div><div style="text-align: justify;">The Aston Martin Vantage SP10 has a purposeful appearance that showcases its agility and performance and transfers the visual dynamics from motorsport to the road.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Both the Coupé and the Roadster are available in Ceramic Grey Metallic. The convertible top of the Roadster is Titan Grey. Its 19-inch cast alloy rims with V-shaped spokes in a diamond turn finish and painted in high-gloss black, and the black brake callipers, emphasise the muscular look of the car. The special paint on the rims is offered exclusively for the special Vantage SP10 model.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Other visual and functional details from the world of motorsport include the front splitter and the carbon rear diffuser - both come as part of the Vantage SP10 standard equipment, along with the clear rear lamps.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Black is the dominant colour in the vehicle interior. Entirely in line with its motorsport pedigree, the Coupé features characteristic Vantage S seat and backrest covers and a sports steering wheel in Black Alcantara.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"></div><div style="text-align: justify;">The silver stitching offers a strong contrast. And the interior is rounded off by a roof liner in Black Alcantara. In contrast to the Coupé, the Roadster features black leather seat and backrest covers and a black leather steering wheel, also with silver stitching.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Both versions are equipped with a centre console in Piano Black. The instrument panel is trimmed entirely with leather and embellished with silver stitching.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><b>Extensive combinations of features for more luxury and practicality</b></div><div style="text-align: justify;"></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Like the V8 Vantage S, the Vantage SP10 is more than just a distinctive sports model. Thanks to its features, it will prove itself to be outstanding in everyday use.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Electrically operated seats, satellite navigation, cruise control and Bluetooth telephone preparation are just a few examples of the luxurious list of standard equipment that makes the Vantage SP10 a pleasant companion for everyday life. And with the 750W Premium Audio Sound System which is even part of the standard equipment in the Vantage SP10, music lovers can also make the most of this car.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"></div><div style="text-align: justify;">The high-fidelity sound can be enhanced further by choosing the 1000W Bang & Olufsen BeoSound Audio System as an optional extra. This and other additional equipment features, such as a reversing camera, sports suspension (on the Coupé only) or lightweight carbon seats, guarantee even higher levels of comfort and luxury.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"></div><div style="text-align: justify;">One particularly distinctive feature of this special model is a badge on the engine block that features the inscription "Aston Martin Vantage SP10" and which, of course, comes as standard.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><b>Articles Source : </b>Netcarshow</div>
