    Re: Aston Martin DBS

    It is 0-60, not 0-62, so 4 seconds may be valid.

    Still...AM builds beautiful cars but nothing more (yet).
    It may change with the DBS but right now, I'm not impressed.
    Of course AM builds sporty cars too, thats not the point but if a AM with a couple of horses more than a 997 Turbo for example needs a couple of seconds longer for the 0-200 kph acceleration, not to speak about the 0-300 kph acceleration where the AM Vanquish V12 (I think...) was over 20 seconds slowlier. 20 seconds for a car which is much more powerful, not to speak about the price tag. I even won't mention winter driving capabilities, etc.

    Bottom line is: Aston Martin has never build so beautiful and performant cars before and this is really a good thing. Unfortunately their products, though absolutely great in technical design and of course visual design, are more for the older people among us. I may consider a AM when I'm 60 or so, right now I would stick with Porsche, Lamborghini or Ferrari. Just my personal opinion.

    You are a bit stupid, don't you? You really think that a car like that would make all those roles just when it does a turn? The movie car was equiped with hydraulics and a special suspension just to do that role. When the car does a turn the suspension impulses one side of the car so it can roles in that way...



    Please watch your language, your post is in violation of our forum rules.

    jamesdamanuk1 apparently made a joke, apparently everybody except you understood that.



    Sorry, my fault, my english is still not good enough, and consecutively, my point of view is not good too in situations like joks and other stuleties of the english language.My apologies.

    anybody know anything about the carbon-fibre steering wheel on that interior shot? It's got visible stitching, so I'm wondering if it's not real carbon-fibre

    It's definitely not CF. Looks a lot more like a textured leather, vinyl, or other synthetic material.

    Recall Porsche's "sport design package" from a few years back, and it's textured diamond pattern.

    The Porsche girls on the pics look pretty "cheap". The pics were made at the "Reeperbahn"? The Bond girls are elegant and have a characteristic beauty.

    RC, RC, RC,

    You should have photoshopped her in front of your car then you would have made an excellent point.
