Aston Martin isn’t the sort of company that updates is products very often so once they got done working on the Virage, they pretty much took a tea break.

Before the British did that they did realize that people needed some news from them so they cropped up a press release of new photos of their 2011 Aston Martin V8 Vantage S.
Even though its now got a new model year markup on the paperwork, the 2011 Aston Martin V8 Vantage S isn’t that much different from the previous version. Actually, the 2011 Aston Martin V8 Vantage S hasn’t changed at all.

The same 4.7L V8 engine delivers the same 430 horsepower and 361 lb-ft of torque as before. Aston Martin just wanted to show us some new photos of their 2011 V8 Vantage S so they dreamed up this press release for that sole purpose in life, there’s nothing more to this whole story than that.

The gear shifting duties handled by a seven speed Sportshift II transmission, one which uses shorter gears, thus enabling the Vantage S to stay on the power and help its performance.

That may or may not be so, what is important is that the 2011 Aston Martin V8 Vantage S is saved because of the way it looks. Also, the 2011 Aston Martin V8 Vantage S Roadster isn’t exactly ugly either is it now?
