    Default If you had $200,000 - would you get a '06 Vanquish S?

    As the title states:

    If you had $200,000 - would you get a '06 Vanquish S?

    I know of someone that is looking to pick up a summer toy (over the coming winter), and is seriously considering a Vanquish S.
    My question to you, is would you go with this vehicle if you had $200k to spend? Yes? No?

    If so, why?
    And if not, why not? (And what would you rather have?)

    I would probably pocket $60+k and get a DB9 instead.

    I'd probably go for the freshened V8 Vantage now.

    Or an Audi R8. Or wait for the R8 TDi. Or a 911 GT3 RS. Or a Gallardo. Or a 360 Modena.... man, there's too many cars to choose from these days.

    Ah how I wish my original post was intended for myself

    The decision is on the shoulders of a good friend in the States.

    I drive an Audi.

    If it was me, I would grab a GT2 OR an F430.

    The Vanquish is gorgeous... the DB9 outperforms it, but it really comes down to which you like better.

    Oh COME on, Ryan.

    My Vantage was the first or second in Calgary in May 07, it's not like these are as common as a 360/430/911...
