Aston Martin Vanquish vs Ferrari 550 Maranellokapplera 11-25-2001, 10:57 PM Which do you like more? Take into account: - Looks - Performance - Prestige - Reliability - English vs Italian I am completely undecided. ak LiuBei 12-04-2001, 10:00 PM Would you like a bloody cup of tea Guv'nor. No comparo needed Ferrari all the way. Aston's are just cars, Ferrari's define passion USA Racer 12-06-2001, 02:08 AM Both are great and it's hard to pick. But I'll take the 550 Maranello. Only because of a few things though. They are both very very good cars. GTStang 03-14-2003, 01:36 PM Both unbelievable cars. Nothing bad to say about the Ferrari but I'd take the Aston Yea Babyyyyy Jimster 03-14-2003, 02:47 PM VERY HARD Comparo- but n terms of the aftermarket- Ferrari has it sewn up (Koenig) even stock for stock for stock the Ferrari moves and handles much better than the Aston- and they are by far more "passionate car"- However if you want Luxury then that is where the Aston shines Neutrino 03-14-2003, 06:56 PM from the looks department i would take the aston from the mecanical department i'll take the ferrari Pick 03-15-2003, 07:45 AM Ferrari rocks this poll all the way. Aston Martin's are too heavy and handling sucks.

You'd be suprised- but some people do- Just because you don't and I don't doesn't mean the next guy won't :rolleyes: 90EX 03-17-2003, 09:45 AM I have always dreamed about owning a Ferrari. crayzayjay 03-17-2003, 04:43 PM If you hear the sound a Vanquish makes your dreams of owning a Ferrari will rapidly evaporate.. The word "sound" doesnt even do it justice. Jeremy Clarkson described it as "God shouting" :hehe: BMW-Hamann 03-19-2003, 08:59 AM Originally posted by kapplera Which do you like more?

I will own one someday - just not yet. crayzayjay 03-19-2003, 11:30 AM Originally posted by BMW-Hamann did u hear it directly? ... I only hear it from the JB movie Die Another Day .. and I fall in love right away .. :D ;) You bet your ass i heard it first hand... a guy who lives on my street has one.... i was driving behind him for a few minutes once (trying hard to keep with him) and it really sounded incredible, like nothing else out there.... not surprising, with a trick exhaust and all... still, gorgeous sound... not outrageous like a Diablo but just as sexy crayzayjay 03-19-2003, 11:39 AM This gives you an idea http://supercars.ifn.cx/news/06012002.shtml honestly though, it sounded 1000 times better "live"... the way theyve recorded these files arent great i should add, the second file is better (and only 232k) BMW-Hamann 03-19-2003, 09:14 PM Originally posted by crayzayjay This gives you an idea http://supercars.ifn.cx/news/06012002.shtml honestly though, it sounded 1000 times better "live"... the way theyve recorded these files arent great i should add, the second file is better (and only 232k) thank u Cray .. but after i downloaded it, I find the sound was different compare to what I heard in Die Another Day movie .... which one is the real sound of Vanguish?:D crayzayjay 03-20-2003, 08:01 AM The second mp3 clip captures the sound quite well, I saw the Bond movie but I cant really remember what the car sounded like in that. Im pretty sure the two clips are genuine, the second one does sound close to the real thing BMW-Hamann 03-20-2003, 08:48 AM Originally posted by crayzayjay The second mp3 clip captures the sound quite well, I saw the Bond movie but I cant really remember what the car sounded like in that. Im pretty sure the two clips are genuine, the second one does sound close to the real thing ok Cray ... but the sound not really the same ... from the MP3 clip, it's sound like Scooby cat-back on WRX ... quite nice .. but the movie version nicer .. the sound is really awesome ... :D crayzayjay 03-21-2003, 10:54 AM like i said i dont really recall the movie but hear the car in real life and a scoob doesnt compare... not even close... its incredible BMW-Hamann 03-22-2003, 10:06 AM Originally posted by crayzayjay like i said i dont really recall the movie but hear the car in real life and a scoob doesnt compare... not even close... its incredible hemmm ...
