I think it's stupid that it has to be a special edt. rather than an all new model, Should have just badged it the "Vantage S". I also spoke w/ an Aston salesman well over a year ago about this car, and he said when he went for training on the V8 Vantage that there was a prototype loaded w/ a V-12 engine that was said to make it to a series production model sometime later in the pipline. I thought he was having more a pipedream than anything, such an engine would be too have and have a very negative footprint on the cars performance.
