It's been a while, but new car time!

Lovely car. Enjoy it. My brother has just had a difficult time deciding on whether to buy a 911 or a Vantage and has just decided on the Vantage.
 
Love the sound, love the shape.

Hate the colour, hate the stripe, hate the interior.

How can AM charge so much for a car with an interior from 2004?
 
Looks good, except for the colour, and not really fan of the side stripe though, looks like something more at home on the side of a 15 year old max power hatchback.

The interior is actually a very light grey with black leather and alacantara accents. I've had a couple with all black interiors before and really like the contrast, feels it makes the interior a lot more modern.

I can put some pics up of the Porsche but honestly the damage is barely even visible, the rear bumper just has a few creases in it but there was some damage underneath apparently.

Very nice. I thought you had a Ferrari. Did you trade it for the 991?

Sold the Ferrari around this time last year, picked up the 991 to replace it.

Actually, it's a bit of a bargain (relative to the UK), these start at $99k + options, mine ended up around $120k which is interesting because it has the same engine and trimmings as the V8S which starts at $136k. At $99k it's a little stripped out compared to the V8S but at around $115k it actually has all the same options, sometimes more.

Not that it's cheap, but it's a lot of car for the money IMO, and while the interior is an old design now, personally it's one of my favorites in any car as it's just so clean and beautifully put together - everything is either metal, carbon, alacantara or leather.

Oh bugger I've just re-read how that sounds, was meant to read like "are you my real dad" not "your dad bought it.

Bugger humour fail, no offence meant OP.

I didn't even think to take it the wrong way, don't worry! But adoptions are closed I'm afraid ;)

I'm undecided on the stripe yet. Normally they come with red "lipstick" around the front grille and red stripes along the tops of the side windows but this one had them deleted. Part of me likes the fact that the stripe gives a bit of separation of the white, the other part agrees with you entirely.
