True!
The problem with the Aston Martin is that the costs to run it are so high. Fuel, insurance, maintenance, etc. Depreciation is actually not that bad compared to the fuel, insurance, and maintenance. And everywhere I go these days in California is almost by electric car! And if it's further than the electric car range by a lot, then I just fly. Flying in the USA is mostly fairly convenient. Plus, every time I drive the car, it gets so dirty, so many bugs in the spring/summer time. Driving the Aston would necessitate cleaning it every few days!

Just to cement my passion for a particular race, a particular color scheme, and last but certainly not least - a particular car manufacturer ........ ...
They can be surpassed....
in most other quantitative measures, sometimes all too easily, but aesthetics is one where everyone else has quite a challenge on their hands just to keep up . Cheers, Filip
Not the new ones though...
The new ones by Marek Reichmann seem to be less classic. It's a whole new Aston Martin. I call it "Neo Aston Martin." The design doesn't seem to be as well received as the original Callum/Fisker designs. But they are beautiful and modern. The cars I bet a...
Oh, I've driven the new Vantage.
It is indisputably a superior car in every tangible way to the previous generation V8 Vantage (which I've also driven), and yet, I still prefer the older generation! As I mentioned before, outright performance simply isn't my subjective metric of main ref...
Honestly the AMG products have done such a good job of that...
I drive a fairly old AMG, and while it is fast, it's not the most refined car. Nearly 500 horsepower and only a 5 speed automatic transmission doesn't lend itself to the most refined experience. But the new AMGs are so good. The new turbocharged cars stil...
MB has improved many fold....
over the past decade in my opinion. For my money, they are now making the best cars of the 'Big 3' German manufacturers. I love the fact that AML has chosen to partner with them for various components over any other car maker. It's a hugely beneficial par...
Funnily enough....
this was my viewpoint during breakfast this morning, and I immediately thought of you! ...
Oh my favorite!
My absolute favorite sports car. No, it's not exactly elegant compared to an Aston Martin. But it's a great performer that's still very emotional! A tenor, where the Aston Martin is more a Bass. I'd get mine in either dark grey or black with lime-green br...
I'm afraid to...
It'll just make me want one even more badly. And I already have two cars and another two ordered cars on the way. Yikes!

That, mon ami,
is quite the understatement, which is something the French aren't famous for LoL . I am having way too much fun with it! Cheers, Filip
The new Renault Alpine!
How come you didn't bless us with a review of that one here?? Cheers, Filip
I wrote several!!!
Here are the links: www.watchprosite.com www.watchprosite.com www.watchprosite.com
FYI,
the first two of your three links do not work. I receive an error message (404 page not found), the remaining link provides an excellent article from May 2021. No wonder I missed that one, it was exactly when I came back to L.A. from the California desert...
Btw,
Your grey A110 Legend is one cool sports car! Love the color, and especially the heritage details, although I have to say those original rims were totally excellent in my opinion as well ....
Oh, I surely wish....
I'd get a chance to be there in person at some point! That, and the Isle of Man TT race . Cheers, Filip
