This is a pic I took of Atlanta Braves centerfielder Andruw Jones' car. This is as close as I could get and as tight as I could zoom. Can anyone tell me what it is?

That's an Aston Martin V12 Vanquish. Very nice!
The Braves are my favorite Baseball team, so it's awesome to see their best player drive one of my favorite motor co's cars

Thanks.........What would one of those run me????? Love the Braves too. Went to Atlanta to see 'em spank the cubs this week. Chipper was in a Dodge Magnum, Marcus Giles was in a Hummer H2, P. Orr was in a Grand Am, Smoltz was in a Yukon/Suburban, Jeff Francouer was in a Yukon/Suburban. There were 4 Hummers in the players lot.

The Vanquish goes for 228K
Good to see that Jones has some style and doesnt go with those shapeless, ugly SUVs like is the trend with most sport players nowadays

does anyone else here beleive that the car you drive refelcts you personality in one way or another?

i mean look at me and my II. we're often overlooked by performance junkies (i dont really look like a football player lol), but if we put in enough work, we kick hiney (by work, for the cobra II, i mean cubic inches)

plus we're both danm sexy! and to think ppl criticized the cobra II for its flashiness. come to think of it, ppl criticize me for my niner apparel

my mom, who hates dricing and finds it a chore rather than fun, dirves a boring protege.

My uncle who can be snobby and arrogant most of the time drives a BMW 745i

my other uncle who doesnt give a darn what you think is better, lives for his family and thinks if he's content, who cars what other ppl think. he drives a cmary/sienna

any other examples out there?
