    Which is why Top Gear have their DB9 supercool fridge thing on the cool wall
    Rule 1 of the forum, always accuse anyone who disagrees with you of bias.I would say that though.

    It has to be Ferrari or Alfa Romeo, for me. I think older Aston Martins are beautiful, but I don't understand the fascination with the styling of the new models. I'm fairly sure Jeremy Clarkson desribed the DB9 as the best looking car ever built, but I just can't see it myself. I'm speaking relatively of course. If I ever got the chance to own a DB9, I'd be a happy man.

    But compared to a lot of the newer GT's the Aston Martins look lovely. It's all relative I guess. They're certainly not ugly by a longshot but I can think of dozens of cars which are more beautiful My brother used to have a '69 Giulia Sprint GT so I have a thing for Alfa Romeos too.......

    You see, I think the Scaglietti is beautiful, but most people feel that it's let down by its looks. Horses for courses, really.

    The spaghetti has grown on me I'll admit. But I doubt that the 599 GTB will be as lucky.
