Aston Martin's possess a subtle beauty to them, just as many luxurious European cars do. Mercedes, for example, are by no means flashy, but are still beautiful cars. Same with many Bimmers. Both of these brands (along with many others) possess subtle, trademark styling cues and a masterful use of lines and curves to express themselves. Mercedes has it's ridged taillights and classic C-pillar. BMW's have the distinctive Kidney Grills and round headlights. Such is the case with AM. The grill on the Vanquish is eerily reminiscent of the early DB series, among other similarites.
To generalize "ferrari enthusiasts" as incapable of understanding Aston Martin's subtleness is absurd. This also assumes that AM is on a higher level, which it is not. Ferrari also possesses certain trademark cues (i.e. grills, taillights...), yet Ferrari's styling is overall in your face, aggressive, and clear.
