2014 Geneva Series Finale Double Feature-Aston Martin V-8 Vantage N430 and DB9 Carbon Special Editions

Aston Martin V-8 Vantage N430
The V-8 Vantage N430 is based on the N420 back in 2010. The N430 has 10 more hp than the N420, 430 hp to the previous car's 420 hp, mainly thanks to Aston Martin putting a 4.7L V-8 in the front. Aston has the 0-60 time at 4.6 seconds and the top speed is 190 mph. The rear wheels get power via the 7-speed Sportshift II tranny. The N430 will cost $150,000 and you will have to go to Europe to get one since it isn't for sale in the U.S.

Aston Martin DB9 Carbon Special Edition
Unlike the N430 this Aston sports a larger, more powerful, 6.0L V-12. It can produce 510 hp and 457 lb-ft, propelling you to 183 mph. It comes in 2 colors, black or white, and depending on which one you get, it has a Carbon Black or Carbon White logo to separate it from the pack. This car, sadly, won't be for sale in the U.S. either.
