Congratulations! Great to hear I'm not the only one with a crazy AM dream.

I hope we do driving events as well. My plan is not to keep the miles that low.

Thank you! That is great to hear. How many miles did you drive since you acquired her?

Thank you! I was between meteoroid silver and Stratus white.
I'm glad about my decision.
She is definitely my personal favorite AM I have ever seen and still can't believe this piece of art is mine. The color pops in real live.

Hello Zettinger, welcome aboard and congratulations. I have had two V8V's and loved them both and now have a Vanquish currently being built so I thoroughly understand all of your excitement.
Where in Florida are you?

Thank you!
I'm located in Bradenton Sarasota area.
If I would have known you, I just could have admired your cars and save the money.
I hope there are some social events in Florida to meet other Aston owners.

Thank you! I still can't believe how beautiful she is. I'm spending so much time in the garage lately.

I was on a cruise with a few friend last evening. A friend of mine took videos of the quicksilver exhaust note.

Zettinger, I haven't done enough miles -- about 8700. Lack of time rather than any effort to keep the mileage down.

8700 is even a few hundred less than mine had.

My plan is to drive her as much as possible. My wife thinks to use a different car for work commute but this is still under evaluation.

I too came from M3 and 993. But AM Vantage is to another level of its own.
You guys have good taste. In addition to my Vantage, I have a 993 C4S and an E92 M3

My Dad fell in love with my 993 and bought her from me.

I still have my M3 and may want to keep her as a secondary commuter to the Vantage.
