Hi fella's////

have just returned from a week of Disney.....
happy to be home...

had a chance to drive an Aston Martin Virage while there......
it was a V12, pretty fun, but a tank of a car weighing over 5K lbs!!!!!
And it was very apparent while on the esses.......
A very, very handsome car, but not something for me, I was very happy to
get home to my cars....
couple shots....

thanx for looking

the color was very rich: a deep, deep orange with lots of fleck and sparkle in the paint......it was such a nice color......one thing about AM, they have 50 colors to choose from............ for the inside of the car too, it's quite amazing how many color choices there are......for stitching, leather and console areas
