This Aston Martin V12 Vantage S Video Is A Celebration Of Manual Gearboxes And Engine Noise
Aston has given its V12 Vantage S the option of a manual transmission for the first time ever. To celebrate, the company sent out its chief handling specialist Matt Becker to give the car a damn good spanking on and off track
The ladies and gents at Aston Martin have at last decided to give the V12 Vantage S the manual gearbox it deserves. But not just any manual: it’s a seven-speed dog-leg setup. Read more about it here.
Growing up on a diet of World Rally Championship highlights and lengthy Gran Turismo 2 sessions, a life in cars was as good as inevitable for Matt.

This car has a dogleg transmission! Brilliant!
It does have auto-rev mating though, but it’s still amazing!
Can the auto rev matching be turned off? Coz it definitely was a clip of heel toe in that vid
I was going to kill myself today…. I don’t think I will now….
aston martin deserves a nobel peace prize for keeping the manuals alive.
COULDNT STAND THE FACT HE DIDNT REV IT TO THE MAX😭😭😭
