Car Tech: James Bond would never drive this Aston Martin Vantage

The 2012 Aston Martin V8 Vantage Roadster is perhaps the most beautiful, and infuriating, car in the world.

Wow what an annoying reviewer. That sex toy is to put in place of one of the cupholders he just wasn't bright enough to figure that out. The key is beautiful. And get a manual transmission to solve the transmission problem.

I'd love to own a Vantage even with all those small things that guy pointed out. Those eccentricities make the car special.

If you have to replace that crystal key, it's a cool $5,000!!!
I totally agree with him on the transmission, it tries to be a manual
transmission but fails miserably.

I got to 3:35 then shut it down. I fucking hate this clown. Stick to reviewing laptops and cell phones. He probably drives a Prius.

He was still biased as hell. That's not how you review a product.

Not sure if reviewer is serious or not, he dwelved way off topic from the "tech" of the car and started talking about how terrible the car is in general, even has the audacity to speak ill of the transmission, basically saying its worse then your corolla 4 speed auto.
