With that said, i too would take the Aston. The fact that Aston hasn't forgotten about a proper manual transmissions in their cars is so important. There are very few GT cars i feel can stand up to a DBS.
This is very true. Although I can't really explain it. It's like comparing a TL to a 335. You get in the 335 and it feels like higher quality materials, richer colors and better build quality and design efforts. That's the difference between the Gran Turismo and the Vantage.When I sit in it I can just look around I know i'm in something really damn good, versus something special.

The DBS is probably one of my favorite cars of all time. Where else can you get all that class and all that performance. It's a benchmark if you ask me. It would be one of the first cars I'd buy if I won the lottery...
-DBS
-Carrera GT
-Alpine B7
