Those wheels were optional, and available in silver as well. That's what I ordered, although I've gone aftermarket at this point.

 

I wish the FType had a small spoiler like the one on the AM. That would make it near perfect for me.

 

Ah yes....but the AM has no shark fin.

 

I am a mad spoiler guy, but I havent seen one on an F Type yet that I thought was perfect, except maybe the GT4 wing on the invictus games one, and that is maybe too much for even me

 

Vantage front and rear too busy. Keeps reminding me of a sad fish. I like certain aspects of it, but overall I cannot get myself to like it.

Roma looks a bit contrived - like it’s trying too hard. Too many lines and angles. I like it much better than the Vantage. Inside is awesome! At $275k.. well, not likely to see the inside of my garage.

The F-Type actually has a lot of lines going on, but they are complimentary to each other and come together for a clean, powerful presence. I love looking at the car. Funny that $120k should ever be called a bargain, but in this case, he’ll yeah.

I generally evaluate products without respect to cost. Poke, prod and weigh them up to decide which I like and why. Then I apply cost and see if I can make my choice work. I should also say impossibly costly things well out of my range don’t make it on my list for consideration.

 

In person the Roma looks pretty good. The only iffy aspect is the front grill, which there are a number of choices for, including body color, so its OK if you pick the right choice for the color of the car.

I like the back of the Vantage, the front was always the issue, but I have that same issue with the newer F-Types.

Having driven all three, the place where the Aston and the Ferrari have the advantage is the suspension. The F-Type has always seemed to be missing a "higher" setting for the dynamic suspension to tighten things up a bit more.

 

purely on looks, #1.

 

That's where lowing springs come in as they tighten the suspension by lowering the center of gravity and stiffening the springs thereby significantly decreasing the sensation of body roll and producing a car that feels really planted.

 

I've got forged 21's on mine, the handling improvement over OEM 19's is massive, with barely any issues with ride comfort. It really makes you feel in control.
