Can't wait to see some of these Astons on the road. I agree that it's a car I think of as being for someone in their 40s rather than 30s, but also agree that this car could change this view.

It will be interesting to see the reviews of the car compared (no doubt) to the 997. I'm pretty confident that the Aston will come out as a good GT car and the 997 the sporty option, but I don't think that is what AM want. Also, it will be interesting to see if the British press will be heavily biased towards the AM with it's British roots. Should be interesting cos they never have a bad word to say about the 997...



In fact AMS has done an exclusive little comparison on these two cars a while ago - have to dig out the mag to requote. I just remember that the AM's longer wheelsbase give it a bit more comfortable ride, opposite to the Carrera's sportier feel.

The 380 horses in the AM feel about as strong as the S's 355!
