Not sure about the baby Aston but I would take a CPO DB9 over a SL63 any day of the week. When I checked out a new black SL63 the other day I wasnt too impressed. Yet every time I see a DB9 I actually feel my heart race...probably my next car.

The Vantage (manual gearbox) drives better and relaxter IMO than the DB9. The DB9 of course is "more car" and appeals more to our materialistic side.

For a "second car" however I would definitely choose the antage V8 over the DB9.

But the V12 is so sweet.

I looked at the Vantage and DB9 but I have to say neither came close imo to the porsche turbo. Tempted to take a look at the new Lambo but can't see myself turning up to see clients in that, I Might just about get away with it in the Porsche, just.
