How to beat a V12 Aston Martin Vantage - Page 2 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Realize...regardless what happens...you're driving a Chevy...and he's driving an Aston. He wins.

I've driven both (V8 Vantage and my Camaro) and its not even a fair comparision lol But it shouldn't be for 40K to 140K.

Nice as the Camaro is, it just can't cope with any Aston Martin.

That being said... it's nice to see AM owners flash you and give a big thumbs up when you're out in a Camaro

BTW: I'll take both, thank you

It is sad that the Camaro can beat the AM.

The AM will definitely make it alot easier to dirty your sheets with random chicks though.

He smiled with a big wave as we both have very sexy cars and neither should feel bad about that.

He is still driving an aston martin, speed is not the only thing cars are for.
If a civic beat a camaro in speed, the camaro is still better.

Trust me, I can dirty a lot of sheets with a Camaro 2SS/RS and an extra hundred grand in my pocket than he can with just an AM.

It's not too surprising. It's a V12 Vantage. It's going to win in every category of comparison. Now, if it were the regular V8 Vantage, then we might have a race. The V8 Vantage is underpowered.... when you compare it to it's V12 brother at least.

average LS3 camaro with a cam (+ supporting mods) traps 116.5mph according to the fast list here. so thats probably what it would take to at least keep up. average cam + heads camaro traps 118mph. Im talking average full weight cars though.

A bad pic from my cellphone for those that were wondering.

It's Elwood Blue, bespoke to the Aston Martin Race team with custom picked leather interior; IE the stitching in the car matches the exterior paint. Oh I forgot to mention the insane 1000WATT Bang and Olufson Stereo

At some point I will have to get these two cars together and have a race..I will try for a video.
