• Edmunds.com Review

  • "With an asking price of $132,900 for the coupe and $145,900 for the roadster (plus a further $6,000 if you opt for the Sportshift automated manual transmission), the N400 appears to be a lot more expensive than the standard V8 Vantage, which starts at $111,300. Since most Aston buyers load up their purchase with options worth as much as $20,000, we think the bottom line is reasonable. That's a view apparently shared by others, as all 240 N400 coupes have already been snapped up without so much as a test-drive."Edmunds.com: First Drive: 2008 Aston Martin V8 Vantage N400 (March 20, 2008)
