Yes please! Agreed, that’s more muscle car in looks than uber GT. I bet the interior is insanely nice tho, which is where it parts ways with most other cars.

I saw a spec in BRG. Sensational! So mean. So muscular. I’m not into those tropical fish colours.

I keep reading Van Halen. You really got me.

They’re doing some epic stuff, but they’re still broke

I loved my Astons, still tempted to get another (the V8V was a manual ), but my dream of a 458 is calling.

They aren’t doing well, are they? Bummer.

The cars in these pics are proper looking Aston’s. I’m just not on with most modern styling of various supercars. Just isn’t working for me. They are all trying too hard and it’s a race to add one more scoop, bulge, wing, fold, aero kit, etc. Not for me.

Do get a 458. Last truly classic looking Ferrari , IMO. Wish I could get one.

I take it back. The colour is amazing and the car is stunning. Watch the Hagerty video. It’s a car that is much better when not static.



Imagine wanting a Ferrari over an Aston. No accounting for taste I guess.

They haven’t been doing well for 113 years and gone bankrupt 7 times. I’m not buying the business I’m buying the cars. I think the current strategy is sound and the last quarter was a lot better.

(Edit I’d only seen photos didn’t realise OP posted the video. Anyway. Watch the video.)

The Valour hearkens the 1980 DBS (I prefer the Volante).

One of my favorite cars of all time. All panache.
