    It's...OK.

    IMO.

    If it were AFFORDABLE, I might care a lot more. But it won't be, so I don't.

    There's a wealthy guy here in Wilm. that has the 2 door model. I see it every once in a while when I'm passing a certain high end comunity. I love the styling.

    The model is the 2010 *Rapide*

    I have a weakness for Aston Martin's. Not the most well built cars, but the styling is just so...sexy....

    What?

    How on Earth can you substantiate such a claim?

    meh...Doesn't really do it for me.

    Basically any car with 4 doors won't do it for me though.

    They (along with Jaguar) are prone to electrical problems, that's all I meant. And for 6 figures, I don't think a car should be prone to any problems.

    Again, how on Earth can you substantiate the claim? Have you owned an Aston?

    Furthermore, you can research online, Aston Martin and Jaguar both managed to shake the spotty electronics gremlins in the 90's when Ford bought them both and turned things around with improved quality control and manufacturing processes. I can't say I've heard of a Jag or Aston with electrical problems in 15-20 years.

    Then again, I don't own an example from either so I can only go by word of mouth and professional reviews.

    I'm not really fond of this whole recent 'lets turn an exotic sports car into a four door saloon' theme, but I think I'd still take a Porsche Panamera over that.

    LOL I wish my claim was coming from personal experience; would love to be able to afford an Aston Martin at 20 years old. My good friends dad is a service tech at an Aston Martin dealership back home, and he was telling us about how most of the repairs that come in are for electrical issues. Jag I was basing off of the past, maybe they improved, I don't know. I drive a 2007 Hyundai, and I know for a fact that they are not the same Hyundai from 10 years ago. But the Aston tech is currently employed there and the electrical issues are still pretty commonplace.
