The 1977 Aston Martin V8 Vantage is a RWD sports car by Aston Martin that appears in Forza Motorsport 4.
It returned to each main title of the Forza series with Forza Motorsport 6, where it was featured as a Rivals mode event reward.
Synopsis
The V8 Vantage is the fastest car of Aston Martin's V8 grand tourer series from the 1970s. It differs from regular models by having a high-performance V8 engine that gives the car a top speed of 170 mph (273 km/h), making it similar in performance to early supercars such as the Lamborghini Miura P400.
It was manufactured until 1989 and replaced by the Aston Martin Virage which would later receive a Vantage performance model.
Drivetrain
The V8 Vantage is powered by a 5.3 litre V8 using a double overhead camshaft valvetrain along with four twin-choke carburetors. Its engine has a compression ratio of 10.2:1, and produces 380 hp (283 kW) and 380 ft·lb (515 N·m) of torque that make 0 to 60 mph sprints in 5.4 seconds and top speeds higher than 170 mph (273 km/h) possible.
Platform
To cope with the high amount of power, a five-speed manual transmission by ZF is fitted to the car along with body modifications consisting of a revised front bumper and rear spoiler that create more downforce for greater stability at high speeds. Its chassis, which has an almost neutral weight distribution, received a front anti-roll bar and four-wheel disc brakes for increased rigidity and more stopping power, respectively.[2]
