Always thought the Z1 was a neat car. Almost like an inverted Gullwing

Z1 was cute, but I always saw it more like a dune buggy / golf cart for some reason (Toy). I love how the 840 or 850 looks, too bad is even less reliable than the weather report.

If the Z1 is a toy, my Midget must be a Power Wheels

Those 8 series look so good. Saw one at a local meet recently. Background and landscape fit so perfectly with that car.

aren’t those v12 super unreliable? I thought the 840i for a while was doing better in the used market because the engine had a hope at life.

regardless, I love the look.

Recent Aston’s have had a decent interior, but prior ones I thought were gorgeous outside, but the interior had some painfully cheap components wrapped in plush leather.
Also, my perception is that dynamics were average, and for a car that cost that much, underwhelming.
one line that stuck with me was from Mr. Clarkson (I believe this was from the special in Romania) when he was driving a DBS. I’m paraphrasing, but here it goes: Aston Martin has gone through great lengths to make this car as light as possible (lists a few things including a light weight weave for the interior carpeting) and the results speak for themself, [short pause looks at camera] this is by far away the heaviest car here.

So in short, there was some effort, but always lagged behind the market. Anyways, seems like their partnership with Benz and Mr Stroll moved things along, the latest car got good reviews from what I saw.

yeah, but the mc12 mostly a reskinned Enzo and mc12 has removable top and that air scoop right behind your head, I bet that v12 would sound amazing with the top down.
