"If you could, you would"
Yeah I'm gonna say no, I prefer to have a car that isn't sitting in a service center somewhere across the country probably half of the year.
Also you'd just be enabling all the ford fanbois who bought a Ford because of the fake Aston Martin grille.

Did those wheels come from Walmart?
I would.
Jaguar XJS, 6 liter V12, 304 HP, GM 4L80E auto...16 MPG.
What a long way we've come.

Sweet car, no doubt about it.
Pretty sure if I had one I wouldn't be worrying about "ford fanboys" (I refuse to spell boy with an i) when I drove it, that's for sure.

Well, it has a carbon fiber boot lid. I'm sold.
If I had an extra 200k laying around it would be on the top of my list.
The engine looks like it is still based on the old V12 that was 2 Ford Duratech 3.0L V6 engines connected. I would buy one in a heartbeat if I had the money.

Imperial MPG... 31 Imperal MPG = 26 US MPG
Still pretty good for a V12...

Yuck. I'll pass. Looks like every other car on the road. Very Fusionesque.
If you don't show up in something like this how will others know how important you are, besides you telling them?
People that drive this kind of car are interesting. They put up with build quality, running problems and service related downtime that would drive a Honda owner postal.

Probably because an Aston isn't a daily driver like most Honda.

A fair number of them have "people" to put up with that stuff...

Yep, and I'm sure the "average" person driving a new Aston Martin isn't stranded hitchhiking to work or wondering how to pick up groceries when the car is in the shop.
Nice, but I CANNOT STAND the looks of that glass roof.
I love AM's so sexy.

If I remember correctly they entered into a contract with Mercedes to supply V12's and will be using them at some point. AM is a bit broke.
