Description[]
The Aston Martin Vantage GTE, also known as the Vantage AMR, is a grand touring race car designed and developed by Aston Martin Racing, Aston Martin's motorsports arm; it replaced the V12 Vantage GT3 and V8 Vantage GTE previously used in Aston Martin's racing programs. Designed by Dan Sayers, the car is capable of being converted from Group GT3 to GTE specifications and was developed alongside the Vantage road car, which it was unveiled alongside. Performance of the car was notably poor in their initial campaign as they struggled with tire degradation, but in later seasons performance of the car picked up, with the car being capable of challenging for wins, winning the 2019-20 World Endurance Constructors' and Drivers' Championships.
This casting is based in appearance on the initial show car version of the Vantage GTE. Oddly, the car features a "hybridized" interior; it features two seats and the circular steering wheel of the road car and the spartan interior and roll cage of the race car.
