I almost got one my self, but I think (it's only me) an Aston should always be silver.

Like you I think an Aston should be in silver...the bodies are made of aluminum after all. But this one I really loved in yellow.

Lovely looking AM there karan.

I agree with gt and Diablo on silver color, but AMs look stunning in some other shades like these:

Hey thanks everyone, though really a long time after I'm posting replies to ur comments!! The Vantage does look sexy in black, grey and silver as Bandhav has shown in his pics but yellow is also quite good. And considering lack of colour options, you have to go and buy such a rare diecast even if it's in your 2nd favourite colour.

Not exactly packed to the gills with details,this Hotwheels example.But the stance and shape/proportions are spot-on.Have one that looks exactly the same and love it to bits.Also,I'm a huge fan of the Aston Martin V8 Vantage in yellow.Probably,the only Aston that looks right in this colour.

You are right, the stance and proportions are what they would be in a premium model too. I don't think there's any details in this car to be added, the only difference between this and a premium version would be rolled-up windows, openable boot and carpetting in the interiors. So some serious bang for the buck here. Only turnoff is non-openable boot.

Arey, thanks dude!! Contrast came out really well in all these pics with both surface and background being quite dark so that focus is only on car....tried out a different light environment setting in the camera this time and I'm quite pleased with the results
