Ahem. Le Mans, 1959, Aston Matin DBR-1. Does this ring a bell?
Yes, Astons are luxurious cruisers for the most part. There never were as many competition Astons as there were competition Ferraris. But there were competitive Astons that kept pace with the Ferraris in the 50's and 60's, and there are Astons out now that compete directly with the equally luxurious Ferraris. Are we forgetting that of the four current production Ferraris, two are ultra-lux GT's? The 456GT Modifica and the Aston Martin DB7 Vantage are made for each other as competitors. And the 575 Maranello is lined up right in the sights of the Vanquish. Come on folks, Aston doesn't have a mid-engined go-kart like the Modena or the Enzo. Don't compare Apples to IBM's. *rimshot*
