Depreciation is a nasty thing, especially if you’re looking to sell a non-limited edition British sports car or even a super car. Whether it’s a Jag or an Aston, the second it’s no longer a low-mileage example, you can basically kiss nearly 50% of its retail value goodbye. In some cases, the hit you take can be even more substantial.
Now that there’s a brand-new Vantage coming for the 2025 model year, the previous/current model is expected to go down in both price and desirability, although this is still a fine automobile, and we should all be so lucky as to own one.

The Vantage in question, also known as the AM6 Vantage, shares a lot of components with the Mercedes-AMG GT, such as various interior bits/tech, as well as its M177 AMG power unit – a 4.0-liter twin turbo V8. Of course, the V12 Vantage came with a 5.2-liter twin-turbo V12, but that’s a whole different beast, with completely different performance characteristics.

Anyway, back to the V8-powered Vantage, we’ve just found a gorgeous 2019 example with a Stone White exterior and a dual-tone interior that would make every Denver Broncos fan proud (featuring Aurora Blue and Californian Poppy leather upholstery). Before we get into the spec, we need to address what happened when this car was still up for grabs to the highest bidder.

To put things into perspective, this 2019 Vantage Coupe retailed for $198,372, boasting nearly $50,000’s worth of optional extras. The sad, or rather embarrassing part is that the car failed to meet its reserve at auction, with the highest bid only going as high as $83,000. I mean, can you imagine? A car worth $200k being valued at $83k just 5 years and 35,000 miles later? That's rough.

Frankly, I do think the owner could hold out for a little extra cash, but it probably won’t be enough to make them feel much better. Maybe they can sell it for $90,000 or so, but I doubt this car will ever be valued at over $100,000 again, especially since the used market is already filling up with 2019 Vantage Coupes featuring sub-$90k valuations.

Now that we’ve covered that, let’s get into the spec again, starting with exterior highlights such as the black roof panel, the Black Bodypack, Exterior Black Collection (black grille, rear fascia inserts, window trim, rocker panel extensions), LED headlights and taillights, Union Jack fender badges, tinted windows, matte black quad exhaust tips, plus a set of black-finished 20” alloy wheels with orange multi-piston calipers and Michelin Pilot Sport 4S rubber.

Meanwhile, the interior comes with dual-tone orange and blue heated, ventilated and power-adjustable leather seats, Stone White accents, a blue headliner, dual-zone automatic climate control, and a flat-bottom leather steering wheel with paddle shifters.

As for that twin-turbocharged 4.0-liter V8, it was factory-rated at 503 horsepower and 505 lb-ft (685 Nm) of torque, sending everything to the rear wheels via an eight-speed automatic transmission. In a straight line, this will get you from zero to 60 mph in 3.6 seconds, before maxing out at 195 mph (314 kph).
