New member wants to buy SL65 and sell DB9
Hi everyone. I just found this forum while researching the SL65, I am looking for a black/black with all the options. Any help would be appreciated. I got an Aston DB9 in January but it is not the car I thought it would be. It is very uncomfortable for my 6' 3" 220lb body, and a little to stiff for driving in LA. So I decided to sell it and get what I think is a much more user friendly super car Hope to have some spirited discussions on this board.

The 9 has just about all the options. Anything specific you are looking for? I have some pics but not sure how to post them. I can e mail them if you like.

E-mail them to me.

I'll post them for you.

I'm just trying to get information out for people on what kinda car you have

Personally, I love the car, but my dad would never buy a British car.

Nope, I take pictures usually at the highest resolution I can. I then resize them on the computer using photoshop to around 1024*768 and then run a few image optimizers to fix some colors and what not. I don't do much

I just loooooove taking pictures.

Notkts, my sister has a DSCP10, that's 5mp, and I hate it.

I personally have a DSCP9 which is 4mp.

I take my photos at 4mp, or 2272*1704 and then resize them on the computer.

Have you read the manual?

Just experiment with the camera, and you'll learn almost 110% of it. :p
BTW: How do you like that camera, I need a new one, and something that's slick so I can keep in my pocket.

From what I know of its amazing, the screen has to be the best on the market and the size/verstility is amazing. I find myself keeping it in the Murci to take short clips of my adventures, all around I think that its worth its money. I give it my stamp of approval, would you like to see an example of its pictures?
