4. Aston Martin V8 Vantage (2005)
Built from 2005 and still going, the Aston Martin V8 Vantage along with the V12 Vantage model are a series of hand-built sports cars.
The V8 Vantage was the leanest and most agile car in Aston Martin’s lineup, and as it was intended, a more focused model to reach out to potential buyers of cars such as the Porsche 911.
This model was initially fitted with a 4.3 L quad-cam 32-valve V8 engine which produced 380 hp, but the models produced after 2008 suffered an upgrade to a 4.7 litre 420 hp engine.
Aston Martin planned to build up to 3,000 per year, and the V8 Vantage model was retailed for £79,000 ($110,000) in 2006.
