| //06-02-2010 The Aston Martin V12 Vantage has continued to receive global recognition after being named the Wheels Magazine ‘Supercar of the Year’. The V12 Vantage beat off stiff opposition from the Jaguar XKR, Maserati GranTurismo Trofeo Mercedes SLR and Porsche 911 Turbo to land the accolade.
The criteria of entry for the awards, voted for by the Wheels editorial team, meant each car had to have been on sale in 2009, and test driven over the course of the last year.
Wheels writer Amit Benjamin reviewed the V12 Vantage for Wheels: “The Aston Martin V12 Vantage is a traditional sports car in every sense, with a wonderful six litre engine up front, delivering enormous reserves of power to only the rear wheels. Sublime looks have been made even better with the DBS style rims and carbon fibre bonnet louvers and rear diffuser.” |
