How Would You Spec Your Ideal Aston Martin Vantage?

If you were hoping to get something productive done today, we have some bad news: the configurator for the new Aston Martin Vantage is now live. And hot damn, are there a lot of cosmetic options to choose from.

There are 30 separate ‘AM Palette’ colours to choose from - including the vibrant ‘Lime Essence’ finish seen in the reveal images - and a further 11 ‘Q Palette’ hues on offer. Things like the door mirrors and brake callipers can be specced in myriad colours, plus you can pick a particular finish for the grille surround, and even the grille insert material itself.

There are no prices just yet (the configurator is “intended as a guide only”), but with all those trim choices plus equipment options like premium sound systems and fancier seats available, it won’t be hard to inflate the Vantage’s £120,900 base price.

Our first attempt is finished predominantly in ‘China Grey’, enhanced with a ‘Lime Essence’ graphics pack and a crap load of carbonfibre. On the inside, we opted for brown. Lots of brown. And a little more carbon, of course.

As is customary when a manufacturer launches a configurator for its fancy sports car/supercar, we’re now handing the reigns to you. See what you can come up with, and make sure you share a few screen grabs in the comments!
