gooooooo!

I was flipping through my DuPont Registry last night and i saw an 88 Aston Martin, sheesh those things were ugly!

Just shows you how much Car Tech has evolved...

But I admit the Aston is nice now..

Have you seen FAMILY GUY (movie with Nick Cage), he drives a silver Aston....ooo la la I paused that many times to check it out haha...it just looks so smooth....the body and the movement of the beauty.
It's a big jump from an Excel to an Aston..but I like itttt! :p

This pic is of an Aston vantage..2000 model..mmm ;)

ya i know tech has been upgraded so much in da last 15-20 years eh but anyways nice pic man it is sweet eh

that picture is of the DB7 Vantage. The actual Aston Martin Vantage (older models known as Virage) is much more brutal looking. Its unfortunately the last of a breed of dinosaurs that has to be phased out due to emmisions regulations. The awesome Vantage S600 was 600hp, and weighed 2 tonnes. to see it is to love it, below.http://www.plus4.freeserve.co.uk/amorg/virage/am1107.jpg

Great looking DB7 Vantage Penzoil GT-R.

There were a lot of cars that were ugly in the 80's that are beautiful now...

I think that if it is the film I think you are talking about, it is a Ferrari 550 Maranello, not a DB7.

Is it the film where he wakes up one day and he is married with children, as he used to be a single businessman?

If you saw an ugly Aston it was probably a US spec model as they had huge black bumpers instead of the clean chrome ones that they used in Europe. Also the lines on the back of the V8 were chopped to make room for the US number plates which ruined the back.

Who in gods name decided to stick thoes plastic things on in the 80's. Its pure butchery! the lines of astons should not be touched...

Ralph Nader (or something)? Wasn't he the guy who had the idea back in the 70s about the ugly black bumpers? Blame him! Anyone who says Astons are ugly should have their eyes examined immediately!

lol yeah those thing r pretty ugly
