I don’t care what you say. It’s the Aston Martin Vantage. Or the Vanquish. Or the DB9. Or the DBS. Doesn’t matter, they all look the same. laugh.gif




Regardless of incorrect opinions, I want to hear what you guys think is the most beautiful sheet metal ever.

NOT GREAT! Turns out I am not in good shape to be doing secret agent man stuff.

The car is fantastic though. Slow as heck in a straight line but in the corners, it’s a helluva car. I recently took it on a mountain cruise and I have to say, it’s certainly an experience to be rowing gears in a 6 speed Aston with that V8 soundtrack. Straight line performance really isn’t as bad as I say it is but you just don’t get any drama from it. It’s a very smooth engine and all the power comes on above 5,000 rpm so it’s not power you use around town. When you do use it, the power curve is is very linear so you never really feel it. You certainly hear it though!

I expected endless James Bond remarks with this car. So far I have gotten none. I have, however, gotten multiple remarks about my “Batmobile.”

I have requested “DAT AST” for a license plate. Let’s see if it gets approved.
