There is a reason James Bond drives Astons!

This car is incredible. It's for performance and is incredibly sexy. It's stock sound is amazing. Handles in a high performance, but luxurious way. Not comfy on long road trips. This is not designed for the track. Go Porsche if that's why you want one. British sound systems are front oriented, even though the B&O system is state of the art. Major maintenance is high, but normal maintenance is reasonable for a sports car. The E brake is a booger. Bought this because it was my dream car. It is what I wanted <3

13 Vantage Coupe

You can feel the hand built quality in this car. I have owned a ton of 911's, they are very nice. But the Aston is really like a hand made tailored suit, it really is!
