Move over G..i found a new love

[BreaKaoss]

i can't get enough of it. i loved the concept. now i want to marry the production model. to be priced around the 911 i believe too. so say 80-90 grand. has got to be one of the sleekest body styles. love the mean stance of the vehicle too.

-edit- check out the doors. see how they are tilted up when open?

6 mt 4.3 v-8

3461 lbs.
380 hp
302 torque
0-60 4.8

a turbo would do wonders to this car.

on a side note. are there any tuners for the aston martins? i don't think i've ever seen anybody that does work on them. they definately deserve one.

I'm with you Brea, you just can't get any better than an Aston Martin. It is absolutely where style, performance, luxury, speed, and class come together.

Now if you take all of those things and throw in value....you have a G.

[ckforensic]

Yup. I'd love to hear the engine on one. I've only seen them at auto shows or through the windows of exotic car dealerships. SWEEEEEEETTT!

there are a few little known but good tuners that do aston but i don't know the names off the top of my head. Personally I like the DB9's syling more than the Vantage. Only thing that would really keep me from gettin an Aston is that it's still a Ford powering the thing.

I agree, if I ever have more money than I know what to do with I'm heading to the Astin dealer.

But why would you need to tune an Astin Martin?

[Jaylin]

Damn that's a beauty.

How about that new Lexus coupe that's coming out in 2006, 500hp. Think it was in last motor trends. Anyone seen it?

[GZire]

Me likey, especially the DB8's.

so you can have more power

plus, tuners usually add lips and rear underbody spoilers. things to make it stand out and seem a little more aggressive, and generally look all the better for it.

i flew up to detroit for the 2005 north american auto show and let me just say that all the Lexus concept cars were amazing. they always have the best concepts. Aston Martin Vanquish has always been my dream car and I think they are amazing. The engine sounds great and they handle amazingly well and just everything i expected was more than fulfilled.
