Thanks guys for all the great comments!!! For those that commented about not seeing the car any longer here and they will miss seeing the pics.... Me too! That color got more positive comments than any other car I've ever owned. In the end, I really wanted an open top car (Doc, I really loved your ^^ comment!). It all started with trying to trade my DB9 for the red volante pictured below my old DB9 pictured in this ad:



For the record, if you read the ads, it says the car just had its first oil change. That is an error as the one in May 2013 was the cars 3rd while I owned it..... Hurts them selling it to be that inaccurate.

While I've been mostly satisfied with St Louis Motorsports, I'm extremely dissatisfied with the quality of the detail they did on the car..... Today, I'm wasting a Saturday doing a clay bar, polish and wax that I shouldn't have to do on a brand new car..... There were swirl marks from a buffer on the hood and numbers imperfections in the finish all over the car....

I'll post more pics tomorrow after Cars and Cappuccino.

Thanks again guys!

 

The swirl marks and detailing job was just horrible on my V12V as well!
I spent close to 8 hrs. getting all of the marks buffed out.
When a person spends six figures on a car, the detailing should be impeccable. The paint on my viper was absolutely perfect, flat, and swirl free. Heck, my GMC denali HD had a better detail job.
AM needs to have some of their dealer network go back to detail school.
Done ranting
and once again; beautiful choice!!!!

 

^^I've had the same sort of experience.

From Cars and Cappuccino this morning...

 

Good to see you again today....to the guy who got me into the AM brand, after seeing your Winchester Blue DB9. Your new car looks great! I am enjoying my new Vantage. Hope to see you soon!

finding the best angle to photograph the Virage.....

Like this one:

Test drive today after disconnecting the vacuum lines for the exhaust valves. Sounds MUCH better!

 

Stunning! I'll miss seeing Winchester Blue too, but there's nothing like Onyx -- it's amazing (my V8V is Onyx ).

 

Looks great, sits really nice on those rims. I do hope that you got an umbrella with this one.....

I did and also got the ever elusive battery conditioner too!!!!

 

Painted the cover between the intakes (still have to clean off or paint the letters/numbers - haven't decided which?):

 

Looks beautiful! Jealous!

 

Elusive Umbrella!
