Aston Martin is currently in the midst of a reinvention process, one that sees the company working together with Mercedes-AMG to come up with a complete range of appealing proposals. And while the future holds an SUV for Gaydon, among others, we are now here to focus on the Brit's fresh entry model, namely the 2019 Vantage.
The Grand Tourer has already won over enthusiasts from across the world and even convinced many of them that the new front grille design is the proper way to go.

As for the said Affalterbach collaboration, this is how the new Vantage received its twin-turbo 4.0-liter V8 heart. Delivering 510 horsepower for the British toy, the engine seems like just the thing for the vehicle's GT purpose.

However, we want to give you a sample of what happens when an owner decides to remove the gloves and use the Aston for some good old hooning.

But first, here's a reminder of how Andy Palmer, the company's heah honcho, sees the 2019 Vantage: "I'm enormously excited by what we've created: a new Aston Martin Vantage that's more explicit in looks and intent, wrapping heart-pounding performance and dazzling dynamics into an everyday usable package. A true sports car with a sharper look and a keener dynamic edge, the new Vantage is the Aston Martin pure driving machine enthusiasts have been waiting for,"

Having mentioned that, we've brought along a piece of footage that shows the 2019 Aston Martin Vantage doing donuts.

And, as you can imagine, the aural side of the adventure is just as enticing as the visual one, which is why we're inviting you to turn up the volume before reaching for that "play" button below.

Oh, and in case any Porschephiles have landed here, you should know that the aficionado behind the wheel of this Vantage used to own a 991.1 911 GT3 and is preparing to take delivery of a new GT3 RS.
