Black Avante - I just want one
I realy like this newer version more than the original rere. It seems it has a torque splitter centre diff or something, ball raced steering and some different rims. I just want one
Anybody know much about this car yet?

Re: Black Avante - I just want one
Oh man, that new Avante looks sinister! I've never seen that black one before. Is it a new production? The blue Avante is one of my bucket list cars to own. I'd prefer the vintage, but the rere looks just as sexy.

Reggie I think they are just old Vanquish design rims. They have the ribs on the outside face. Kinda weird but kool aswell.

Not the black one, but once they get the car out of the sand there are some very cool views of the drivetrain.

Re: Black Avante - I just want one
I grew up racing with a guy who had one painted Pearl Purple and Pink. Sadly those were the days before digital photography... It's still in my top 10 favorite models of all time. Way out of my price range when I was younger. Once I get my space settled I may have to get a re-re. Nowhere to put it right now. That orange looks awful slick too. That body styling and chassis design really lends itself to a lot of fun and different looks.

Re: Black Avante - I just want one
I would love to see these in action on the track today. Would they be able to give the modern buggys a run?
