About the V8 Vantage Prodrive Mk I

The 2006 Aston Martin V8 Vantage Prodrive Mk I is a rear-drive naturally aspirated coupe of 1,620 kg with 425 bhp, which works out at 262 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 262 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 2.01 s. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 1,126th quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest tenth, and the 38th quickest of the 84 Aston Martins here. Its 113.4 mph trap speed sits about where its 0-60 puts it, so it launches and pulls in roughly equal measure. The simulation is trimmed to 9 of 11 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Aston Martin V8 Vantage Prodrive Mk I 0-60 time?
The Aston Martin V8 Vantage Prodrive Mk I reaches 60 mph in 4.05 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 1,126th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Aston Martin V8 Vantage Prodrive Mk I quarter mile time?
12.57 s at 113.4 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 8.14 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.01 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Aston Martin V8 Vantage Prodrive Mk I have?
425 bhp and 1,620 kg, which is 262 bhp per tonne. It is rear-drive, naturally aspirated, with 6 gears and a quoted top speed of 301 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Aston Martin V8 Vantage Prodrive Mk I?
Closest here on pace: Jaguar F-Type Coupe 5.0 V8 450 (4.10 s), Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Coupe (4.17 s), Wiesmann MF4 4.4 V8 408 (4.08 s). Each one can be raced against the Aston Martin V8 Vantage Prodrive Mk I in the panel at the top of this page. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The Aston Martin V8 Vantage Prodrive Mk I is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 9 of its 11 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

Figures regenerated 2026-10-12. Every number on this page is computed by the simulator at build time, so the page and the app can never disagree.
