Aston Martin DBS Carbon Black

http://www.autoblog.com/2010/05/03/a...-black-review/







Hit the gas again and the exhaust signals its approval. That evolves into a throaty wail when the bypass opens up at 4,000 rpm, but still, it never gets overbearing. (Nor does it get old.) It's just enough. You can putter around town, you can set the cruise at near triple digits and enjoy the sounds of the car or the sound system, or you can point-and-shoot from turn-to-turn and have more fun than you ever would with a Canon.

AM can give the Italian designers a run for their money. Sad how cars like these seem basically ignored over here.

I agree. Everyone I know lusts for a Ferrari, and while they are nice, I think I'd prefer an Aston.

Perfection. I do think Ferrari motors look sexier though. Picky, picky, picky.

I love Ferrari's my self but of a different era. If I was in the market for a vintage "GT" car My first pick would be a 410 Superamerica. But for a modern day "GT" I would want an AM without question.


(though the Panamera has peaked my interest as of late )

...though AM has it's horse for this race: Rapide...

to me it's by far better design, even though I've read it shouldn't be directly compared to Panamera.

Vantage V8 and DB9 - awesome wheels!

Oh my God. I saw first time the interior like this. Actually I like the car from start to end and I like the internal furniture and the engine mechanism most. Actually this kind of cars is my dream and I like to buy these kind of cars.
I like the rims of the car. Transmission system also.
