You know, I really like this car. I'll buy one in 2025. In fact, I'll even take this one--it's the perfect color for me and I like the interior. What is it about MBZ cars that look so, so well-engineered and "strong" for lack of a more eloquent term? This is a very cool car and I'm jealous y'all get to punish it for a while.
Missed the Vantage comparo, so yes, the Vantage IS simply sexier, but I'm scared I'll break down on a road trip or something with the Aston. Not so with this Porsche-look alike from Mercedes.

For what it's worth, the Vantage does use a Mercedes engine. (At least that was the case last time I checked–feel free to prove me wrong.)
I haven't driven either, but I think I'm leaning Vantage, because Aston Martin.
It does along with a lot of the interior stuff behind the screens. I really liked the previous GT car from Mercedes, like a LOT, and the Vantage was on my short list but a bit to shouty and stiff at least the ones I was able to drive.
