  • This week I lived out my teenage dreams of daily driving an Aston Martin. The new DB12 is drop dead gorgeous, and properly fast.

    14:23 complementing a Crosstrek while driving an Aston is peak motoring journalism moment. Lol.

    It's sad to see the V12 gone from the regular DB series cars but at least the DBS still uses a V12. There's an argument to be made that limiting the V12 to the top of the brands lineup makes the power train even more special.

    Aston Martin makes some of the most gorgeous sports cars ever!!! Who disagrees? One thing i hate though: the digital rpm needle is laggy and stuttering AF!!! That is a shame for a luxury coupe like this! The only i accept cars with digital clusters is if they're super super superrrrr smooth and zero lag! Else, stay in mechanical if you can.

    Watching this , I must say , your reviewing style is fresh , informative , thorough.....Listening to the stereo while driving is real-world , yet you don't see it in most reviews...In regard's the car ! it's a beautiful masterpiece for me , with Supercar performance on command. As you say , the little foible's give the car character and personality ; unless said foible's descend into unreliability. We don't want that !!.....Aston Martin are on a roll , with the new v12 Vanquish halo car just announced. And as the creator of Supercar's / GT's in the classical Coupe bodyshell , I can only be a fan.

    Next time you get to sample a car like this, take it out down Huron River Drive between Ann Arbor and Dexter.
    Going out towards Hell, Stockbridge, Gregory, and Pinckney have some incredible roads for fun cars too. Elevation, winding curves and esses, banking, and combinations of all of those.

    I love powerful V8’s, but it has to be mentioned that when you add turbos they tend to muddy the sound. I’m happy it’s not a 6cyl and will take this over that any day even if it’s dead silent.

    This car is absolutely stunning. DB12 as tested is $315K, so you might want to bring deep pockets. I'm guessing a V12 will come to the United States (and other select markets) eventually. Just a guess. How much will they be asking for that, if and when? Half million? 🥶😰

      Turbos, they behave like mufflers and give muddy sounds to everything they go on. AMG, Aston, BMW, etc etc all sound muddy compared to the days of the NA V8/10/12 stuff.
