Yes the Aston is a nice car but the whole Ford/Jaguar relationship has killed the exclusiveness of these cars. This new Fusion is a a complete Aston/Jag styling job. Nothing new here!

Correct, but the styling cross-pollination continues...

Gotta be the Vantage - but I'm rather bias!

Have you seen what's in my garage!

All nice cars, but I don't know how you can't say it's the Porsche. It like eye candy.

In possession of a "loaner" 2008 DB9 for a brief spell, the car is certainly gorgeous and gets tons of compliments. The exhaust note is UH SO HEAVENLY...

I will say, however, that I have been disappointed in driving dynamics - everything from numb steering feedback to the touchy brakes to the super slow paddle shifts. On top of that, the visibility sucks and for a large car the interior is surprisingly cramped. Only been a few days so maybe it's just getting used to things.

If not given the choice of choosing from the recent or distant past, there might be a couple, but they are not anywhere as nice as some that have been made.
