ASTON MARTIN VIRAGE


The Aston Martin Virage was introduced at the Birmingham Motor Show in 1988. The Virage was a large, heavy car, but the 5.3 Liter V8 engine elevated its performance to near supercar levels. "Acceleration just never seems to run out", claimed Sports Car International on a first test. "Nothing sounds quite like an Aston V8," they concluded.
