About the V8 Vantage Roadster Mk I

The 2007 Aston Martin V8 Vantage Roadster Mk I is a rear-drive naturally aspirated coupe of 1,726 kg with 380 bhp, which works out at 220 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 220 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 2.19 s. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 2,022nd quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest quarter, and the 63rd quickest of the 84 Aston Martins here. Its 105.2 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 10 of 10 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Aston Martin V8 Vantage Roadster Mk I 0-60 time?
The Aston Martin V8 Vantage Roadster Mk I reaches 60 mph in 4.85 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 2,022nd quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Aston Martin V8 Vantage Roadster Mk I quarter mile time?
13.56 s at 105.2 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 8.80 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.19 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Aston Martin V8 Vantage Roadster Mk I have?
380 bhp and 1,726 kg, which is 220 bhp per tonne. It is rear-drive, naturally aspirated, with 6 gears and a quoted top speed of 280 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Aston Martin V8 Vantage Roadster Mk I?
Closest here on pace: Maserati GranTurismo (4.89 s), Cadillac ATS Coupe 3.6 V6 325 (4.84 s), Alpina B7s Turbo Coupe (4.84 s). Each one can be raced against the Aston Martin V8 Vantage Roadster 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 Roadster Mk I is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 10 of its 10 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.
