2018 Aston Martin Vanquish S
2018 Aston Martin Vanquish S: The dinosaurs didn’t know extinction was coming. They carried on romping and stomping as the sky turned to fire and that meteor took out much of Mexico. In a similar vein, we doubt anyone at Aston Martin has been brave enough to tell the venerable Vanquish that it’s living at the far end of an overdraft of borrowed time. This is a car that sits on an architecture that already has been replaced and which is still powered by the gloriously anachronistic naturally aspirated V-12 that Aston has been using for nearly two decades. But while the new, turbocharged DB11 is an empirically better car by almost any metric you choose to employ, it can’t match the exclusivity of Aston’s range-topper. Buyers who opt for the Vanquish will have to find an extra $80,000 to get a car with less equipment and less power than its supposedly junior sister DB11, which costs “only” $214,820. But they will find themselves at the pinnacle of Mount Aston. It’s impossible not to see the continued appeal of this grandest of grand tourers, a car that makes a Bentley Continental GT look like something bought at Sears. Now, the Vanquish has been given a final freshening and the deployment of the S badges that Aston reserves for its ultimate incarnations. The Vanquish S gets more power, although the increase must be well within the margin of variation of the non-S’s engine. A fractionally freer-flowing intake system aims to sharpen the top end in the 5.9-liter V-12 and takes the output rating up 12 horsepower to 580 hp—still 20 horses less than the new twin-turbocharged V-12 in the DB11. Strangely, Aston claims a higher, 595-hp output for the engine in European spec, although it says the engine is in the same state of tune and offers no other explanation.
2018 Ford GT:
2018 Ford GT: Vehicle Summary: The mid-engine 2018 Ford GT supercar returns as the automaker’s flagship sports coupe. Other sporty Fords include the Ford Mustang coupe and convertible, Taurus SHO sedan, Fusion Sport sedan, Focus ST and RS hatchbacks, Fiesta ST hatchback, and F-150 Raptor pickup. 2018 Ford GT Overview: First shown at the 2015 Detroit auto show, we don’t expect any major changes to the limited production supercar, but we’ll update this space as soon as we have more info. The automaker has shown some special-edition versions since it first debuted, including the Competition Series. The Ford GT is powered by a mid-mounted twin-turbo 3.5-liter EcoBoost V-6 mated to a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission. The domestic mid-engine supercar is rated 647 hp and 550 lb-ft of torque and has a top speed of 216 mph. The Ford GT is EPA-rated 11/18/14 mpg city/highway/combined. The Ford GT is based around a carbon-fiber tub with aluminum front and rear sub-frames covered by carbon fiber body panels. Other performance bits include a inboard-mounted torsion beam and pushrod suspension with adjustable ride height mated to Multimatic’s Dynamic Suspension Spool Valve (DSSV) shock absorbers, active aerodynamics, and carbon-ceramic brakes. Carbon fiber wheels are optional. Inside, the Ford GT features a reconfigurable digital gauge cluster with five driving modes (Normal, Wet, Sport, Race, and V-Max). While Ford originally planned to make 500 cars over two model years (250 cars each year), the automaker announced it will expand its production to four years for a total of 1,000 examples of the Ford GT.
