Some of the things Aston does as a company are so respectable. 1 robot in the factory, a person does a final inspection, 1 seamstress for the entire vehicle, no parent company. I respect those things so much. I'll be buying an Aston one day.

Hate to break it to you but that was the old AM/Bentley method of car manyfacturing, that isn't true at all now they have large production factories and the signature is now just a pre-manufactures plaque with the CEO's name on it and it's put on every car on the production line.

@@EbrahimSaadawii I can tell that you never visited Gaydon, did you? Luckily I own more than one Aston and I've also been invited to Gaydon more than once.

The problem with using a dark car with black wheels is that you can't see any of the beautiful design. Dark colors absorb light and make it very difficult to photograph. They should have brought a lighter colored car with silver wheels, since this is basically an advertising feature for Aston Martin.
A few years ago I went into a Starbucks that had a beautiful Aston Martin parked in front. A man was stilling in the shop having his coffee facing and staring at the Aston Martin. Obviously not just a pleasure to drive but also to look at. This made me chuckle but at the same time say why not since it is a car that makes me stare at it too. A work of art. Gratefully i can still enjoy something I can't afford by simply appreciating it from a distance. This video is a part of that enjoyment. Thanks Jay.
Exactly, I once saw a DBS in the most stunning silver colour sitting in a parking lot in some hick town in the middle of nowhere. You can't help but just stand and stare. The design is simple and not over the top but everything just looks so right. Pictures and videos don't do them justice.
I was once that guy who would say "I can drive anything" ,until i started watching Jay Leno. From steam to Jet, He is the only one that can and has truly backed it up.

Thank you so much for sharing your journey Jay.
Mark Shihadeh I still say that! But I add... It takes me a few minutes to figure everything out. 30 minutes to be comfortable. By end of day I’ll have it mastered.
The fact he lets them come outta retirement every so often and have a small adventure galloping about in modern traffic is something that really pleases me, for some reason!
Love when Jay has these guys on to show their product and brings up every other manufacturer they compete with. This fella took it in stride though and handled everything really well imo. Always like getting a look at something I'll never afford also.
the moment of inertia stuff was explained so well, absolutely on the money, something so obvious that at least as far as im concerned wasn't obvious until now
Yeah, I hate when people refer to most mid-rear engine cars as "rear engine" cars. Noooo. It's a mid engine car, whether the engine is in the front of the cabin or the rear. It's mid-front or mid-rear.
Yeah I really liked this rep that Aston sent. Much better than the last one I saw and I think he is a pretty great face for the brand on shows like this
Yes, a very good explanation of polar moment of inertia. Then I ended up musing to myself that Corvette started using the rear mounted transmission on the C5 in 1997. And before that, Porsche used the same configuration on the 928, 924, and 944 series of cars.
As a track instructor myself, I really appreciate Mr. Jenkins' clear and well-chosen words describing the Aston's engineering, design, and business/finance side of things. He dresses like a career instructor too: minimalistic yet functional, and with decent driving shoes 👍 Thanks for the refresher on Aston's amazing cars, Jay! I'll never forget when we shook hands when you were still doing The Tonight Show! #legend
AND IF IT'S AN OLD CAR ADD: "LINCOLN COULD DRIVE THIS" "ORIGINAL AND UN-RESTORED" "THE TRUNK IS BIG ENOUGH FOR A FAMILY OF FOUR" OR "LANDLORD, ANYONE IN THERE?"
I'd say a good rule of thumb is that children dream of Ferrari's and Lamborghini's and adults dream of Aston Martins. I remember being a kid growing up and watching my first James Bond movie where he ripped around in his Aston thinking it was the coolest car ever because I had never seen anything like it and then moments later I saw the Ferrari F355 spyder racing along with it and that then became my dream car. It took me nearly 15 years to realize that while the Ferrari was an amazing and cool car it was obnoxious and didn't have the class and luxury of the Aston, there's something just so cool about driving an Aston. It's showing the world that you don't care for trying to show off and you'd rather enjoy the more elegant things in life and be subtle.
Jay, I owned a DB 2/4 MkIII for 9 years. Bought it for $5,000 and sold it for $5,000 in 1986. My youngest son found my old car last spring and it was for sale for $400,000. Rats. Anyway, I loved that car.
I was lucky enough to own 5 Astons over the years. I loved them all because they were a man's car: strong, solid, high performance, comfortable and safe. I owned Ferrari's, Maseratis. Porsches. I found this care to be handsome and solidly put together. I Went to the factory in Newport Pagnell, Buckinghamshire; where I spec'd my last one. I loved everything abut this bespoke vehicle. I bought my first one off the turntable at the NY AUto s how in 1977 from Jess Pouret for the sum of $25000--brand new. Those were the days.
- ok, let`s open the trunk - that`s the booth - now, let`s see what is under the hood - it is a bonnet on the Aston Martin - It is so light, is it made from aluminum - It is actually made from aluminium. i love this guy
Art Vandelay. of Vandelay Industries? (Seinfeld) ... It depreciates the same as a high end Mercedes, right? 200k and meant to be driven, what is not to like.
What a fabulous bit of kit - Am I right in thinking pretty much everyone loves an Aston? If you pull up for petrol in a Ferrari people think "Rich &^%*!" - pull up in an Aston and everyone thinks - "nice car!"....defo the best thing to come out of Newport Pagnall (that and The Swan Revived hotel)......
I can't agree more. In this segment the image of the brand very often relates to the owner. For most Ferrari or Lamborghini drivers an Aston is not flashy enough. So when it comes to class there are differences.
You’re absolutely right. I had the 2019 Vantage and when I pulled up to the petrol station, people would come over to it, ask me about it, take photos, tell me how much they love it…
A guy in a DB9 raced me through the centre of Leeds (in yorkshire) at night. The thing that impressed me the most about that car was the amazing sound made going through the gears from traffic light to traffic light.
You do what you gotta do to make money. Look at Porsche. They've been very close to going under multiple times. The Cayenne basically saved the company. You see those daily.
Thanks again Jay for all these amazing reviews! and very well done on the camera crew’s part also. Truly worthy of being a segment on a big TV network but you still to this day share your videos with the world for free :) Your a great man!
Finally a guy representing the manufacture that knows what he is talking about not just some marketing guy who can't drive a car properly . 007 forever Aston Martin .
The DB11 looks so much nicer with dark paint colors to smooth over the overall design. This spec is by far the best looking example I’ve seen by a mile. Great work Aston!
@ 08:25, the AM PR says a customer claimed to put 110,000 miles on a '06 DB9. I'm sure. He just left out the part where it cost the guy $100,000 just to keep it on the road :-) I used to have a DB9 Volante. GORGEOUS, but the biggest hunk of $hit I've ever had the misfortune of owning. The experience permanently soured me on the brand and, while I'd never consider another one, I do hope the newer products are improved and the company becomes profitable.
I had to watch this video twice in a row...and will probably watch again tomorrow! I thought I would never like a blue car but this thing is a work of art.
They're only building it for one reason - money (so I can't fault them for that). However, they have to change it to "we make beautiful sports cars.....and an SUV".
Terrence is the ideal rep to invite to Leno's Garage. I agree, this is a truly beautiful car. I am intrigued by the possibility of race level performance that can be realized without race level driving, that is what it is all about! And your wife loves it too. Aston Martin gets it.

Simeone Museum in Philly has a DB1 race car, along with a veritable “ton” of other race cars... Alfa’s that won the MilleMiglia, Bentley’s, Ferrari GTO, Shelby Daytona, Mercedes 300SL, etc, etc Amazing place
I love that they use their formula for F1 cars, and apply them towards their road cars. And ofcourse the fact that it is hand built in the country of origin!
Great review as always. The DB11 is beautiful, in and out. Is worth $200k, yes if you can afford it. Jay, I could listen to you all day speak about cars.
Just when you think it's one long ad or a puff piece... "Who do you compete with...? Any dopey SUVs?" As long as he's not hosting a Late Night show, Jay is the man.
Aston Martin just makes the best looking cars at the moment. DB9 is still one of my favorite looking cars ever. No one comes close when it come to make cars this sexy, and Aston has in my humble opinion never made a truly ugly car. Just breathtaking...if i could only own one car in my lifetime....it would be an Aston Martin.
Some of the things Aston does as a company are so respectable. 1 robot in the factory, a person does a final inspection, 1 seamstress for the entire vehicle, no parent company.
I respect those things so much. I'll be buying an Aston one day.

He always lane drifts 😆
This is one of the car brands that represents me. A nice luxurious comfortable interior, comfortable driving experience and if I want or need the power... it’s there.
And then it breaks down…
Simeone Museum in Philly has a DB1 race car, along with a veritable “ton” of other race cars... Alfa’s that won the MilleMiglia, Bentley’s, Ferrari GTO, Shelby Daytona, Mercedes 300SL, etc, etc
Amazing place
Red Ram hell yes, crazy how under the radar it is. Amazing place.
I love that they use their formula for F1 cars, and apply them towards their road cars.
And ofcourse the fact that it is hand built in the country of origin!
I think this is the first video jay didn’t mention his “400hp viper” 😂
Still mentioned the F1 though :)
Waaapo “There will never be anything over 400hp, this is it!”
Or his McLaren 🤭
Yes. It pulls very nicely Jay. Pulls very nicely. Is there anyway else to describe it other than pulls very nicely?
This is a very beautiful car. That color was dope. (the yellow brake shoes though ) ;)
A great interview with an informative gentleman and a marvelous, sleek automobile. Thank You, Jay!
Great review as always.
The DB11 is beautiful, in and out. Is worth $200k, yes if you can afford it.
Jay, I could listen to you all day speak about cars.
This isn't a car you buy to trade this is a car you buy to keep and drive and love
Art in motion.
Never change, Aston Martin. Never change.
If jay likes it you know it’s good.
One of the best looking cars I've seen, thanks for the review Mr. Leno.
Aston Martin has never made a car l didn't find attractive.
You must not have seen the DBX yet.
@@xenonram l like the DBX. It looks better that the Urus or the Bentayga.
The golden ratio working its magic.
Lagonda.
Have you seen the Cygnet yet?
"If you want one, I know a guy!" lol ... what a great video!
"Exercise obviously is my middle name." - Buff Jay Leno
Just when you think it's one long ad or a puff piece... "Who do you compete with...? Any dopey SUVs?" As long as he's not hosting a Late Night show, Jay is the man.
Amazing work from Aston Martin!
Classy and powerful coupe!
Aston Martin just makes the best looking cars at the moment. DB9 is still one of my favorite looking cars ever.
No one comes close when it come to make cars this sexy, and Aston has in my humble opinion never made a truly ugly car.
Just breathtaking...if i could only own one car in my lifetime....it would be an Aston Martin.
I will have an Aston Martin just like this one.
Same!
Good luck
Yes. It will come in a small box with 'Matchbox' written on it.
@@_._._._._._._._ No sir. I will get a real genuine Aston hot wheels.
Jay always goes off the road and drives in the middle lol. Love Jay!!
Very surprised that Jay hasn't got one of those yet!
Like he needs another car... LOL :)
@@Spazik86 that's why I'm surprised as he's got just about everything else!
Give him a week or two
@@PatOD75 some private automobile collections are never seen, I'm glad Jay likes to share his knowledge and collection!
It's always good to know it pulls very nicely.
Stunning car definitely my lottery win wheels😍
Now that DB11 looks sharp.
Jay Leno casually namedropping all the cars he owns. :D
He does that a lot ! All part of being filthy stinkin rich...but he deserves it.
This was great. Love the car and I love the brand rep Aston sent for the show. Guy knows his stuff and does s good job repping the brand.
Bro, what kind of brakes?
Brembro brakes.
Brembro?
Yes bro.
630 HP...sounds great...looks fun to drive...and the color is killer!
Made me love the car even more
The moment of inertia presentation was like the best car related presentation I ever saw on RUclips?:)
Keep up the good work, Jay!
I love all things Aston Martin; just a superbly made, iconic car.
