The Aston Martin V8 Coupe was the entry-version of the V8 Vantage model and was produced from 1996 to 2000.
Featuring a more conservative look than its Virage/Vantage ‘brothers’, the V8 Coupe was fitted with a 5.3L V8 supercharged engine delivering 350 hp and 369 lb-ft of torque. The new car lacked V8 Vantage’s bonnet vents but featured mesh radiator grille and air intakes in the front spoiler. The Aston Martin V8 Coupe was produced in 101 units throughout its 4 years of existence and was only available for the European and Middle East markets (didn’t make the US due to approval reasons).
