I love my 575. I've had it for 6 years and will never sell it. Even with the F1 shift it's so easy to drive..in town it makes traffic driving easy and on the attack on the mountains the changes are plenty fast enough. Faster than I could shift gears in my 355. I always use the paddles, never the auto setting. The car is great on long journeys and tremendous in the twisties. It's a hidden gem.

The paddle change needs careful setting up to work at it's best, but if you lift throttle slightly on up changes, you don't get the lunging effect, just reasonably quick, smooth changes.

Ferrari for me ,especially with that gated manual,love the click it makes with every shift😊

Well balanced and perceptive review; but forgive me, the paddle shift on the S is far from “woeful”. Having driven one for several years, I can say all it needs is just a little patience to realise the sound of the engine tells you when to change up or down best, and to treat the change as if it were a manual one. Once mastered its fine! Sadly few reviewers knew this, so the false heresy of an appalling Vanquish S gearbox was born. Loved your vid anyway and of course subscribed; thank you.

At the time I thought the Vanquish looked nicer but 20 years later I actually think the 575M has aged better. I loved this generation of Aston's styling but the DB9 and V8 Vantage were the real lookers in the range. The Vanquish isn't bad looking at all but from certain angles it looks a bit awkward. The way the rear quarter panel meets the doors for example almost looks like two different cars stuck together. Wouldn't complain to have either to be honest but a manual 575M would be my choice

3:42 that transition is cool as hell

For a GT car and been both launched not too far apart, I gotta give this to Aston Martin. It looks better and more cohesive. I love Ferrari, but the 575m was just a refreshed 550 Maranello and it seems out of place next to the Vanquish

Hard to explain without "in person" demonstration. From side, bumper stick out to give shark like expression and in same time it makes tribute to older Ferraris like 288 GTO, F40, F50 that have those same lines both in front and sides. Still 575m doesn't have those lines on sides because of huge shark gills.

Among every iteration of Ferrari vs Aston Martin V12 GT, this was an easy pick for the Vanquish. The 575 looks a bit boring and the V12 in Vanquish just sounds so much better.
