Naw, just saw how much they were going for on ebay. Yummy was talking about getting a C63 next so maybe an Aston isnt that far from a reach...

One of those would be pretty sweet to kick around town in.
V8: check
RWD: check
6mt: check
gorgeous coupe styling: check
European "leet" apeal: double check
I'm guessing maintenence a repair would be a nightmare though.

Just read the April '09 Motor Trend article on the new Vantage. They loved the engine and it's looks, and that was just about it. They felt the interior ergonomics sucked, they had to cut the test short because the 6sp linkage broke and they couldn't fix it in time to finish the story, instead they got another one in auto and that one had problems too, so they couldn't finish their instrumented testing. Sexy car though..Oh well.

I love the look of Astons, I like the image of the car and I like the package at face value, but factor in the poor residuals, high maintenance costs and the competition it makes it hard to seriously consider purchasing one. In the at or around(or over) $100k mark there are some fantastic cars that dance circles around the Vantage. That does not mean I don't rubber neck every time I see the Vantage that lives around the corner from me, but it means if/when I spend that much on a car it would not be a current Aston, they are great cars to covet, however I suspect the lust affair would end quickly if you owned one.

Actually my friend is getting an Aston Martin convertible. I'm not sure which model he is getting, but he mentioned that it came equiped with a V-12. To be honest, I'm didn't think Aston had V-12s.
The picture of the car he showed me looked like a DB9, but those are only V8s.

Thanks for the thought, man...but, I need to grow a family into the car.
...unless...I can convince the fiancee that we can tie the kids to the hood.

Dude...I posted news of that in Automotive News many days ago. Pics and even video are included.
Auto/car-related NEWS are not in this sub-forum. Almost all are in Automotive News. Car Talk is just general chatter, Q&A about cars...but, info about new models and etc., that's in Automotive News.

I also learned to take everything magazines say with a grain of salt. It's unfortunate they didn't get a good car to properly try one. When I was heavily looking into one around christmas 08 in Virginia, I really loved my 6 speed test-drive, it also had a dealer-installed Quicksilver exhaust. The only thing I thought that was quite odd about the interior was due to the handbrake being on my left side rather than where it usually is. Apart from that, it's a terrific car with great soul (err noise.)
