The $118,000 V8 Vantage has gotten a few peformance and style enhancements.
The Vantage is one of those cars that feels better to drive the faster you go. It's also fairly pleasant to drive around town, although the manual transmission's heavy clutch pedal provides a sturdy workout.
Enter a highway and the Vantage begins to feel more controllable, not less, as speed builds. Be warned that keeping this car within legal speed limits is like trying to eat just one bite of a chocolate cake. If going fast feels this good, you just know that going even faster will feel that much better.
