Spotted: new Aston Martin V8

Driving I90 yesterday afternoon I came up behind a new V8 in the left lane doing about 75. Beautiful silver color w/ a black interior being driven by some dweeby lookin' guy. I gave him the thumbs up and he didn't even smile or wave back. Nice car though!

Very nice, always have had a love for those cars. Unfortunately those who drive them tend to be douchebags

I almost got myself killed staring at a DB9 that was driving next to me a few weeks ago...Simply the most beautiful road car right now in my books...

If I won the lottery, I think the very FIRST thing I'm buying is an Aston Martin...




Yes, this is even before I go after some grail robot toys I've always wanted...

Can't say I've had my share of AM run ins. Don't see them as much as I see the Bentley Continental GT's, which is kinda odd, as I recall them being more expensive.
