Mercedes-Benz CL600 OR Aston Martin V12 Vanquish?

[MITSU-EVO]

Which GT do you think is better

[Rakshas]

Vanquish

[blindside.AMG]

The Aston Martin is a better car. And it is $100,000 more than the CL. You'd have to be stupid to pick the Merc. A better comparison would be the CL65 AMG. But even then, I'd still pick the Vanquish.

BTW - Your thread title doesn't match the poll.

DB9, if it lives up to the hype.


575 if it doesn't

[MITSU-EVO]

blindside.AMG,

I have to admit that you're right. I'm sorry... I just didn't want to get stuck with giving people only two options.

The 575 is hugely appealing but the design has been around a while, so its just pipped by the DB9 for me - much as i prefer the Vanquish for its looks (and that amazing exhaust note), Aston are said to have done a much better job on the DB9's paddle-shift than the Vanq's. And that interior is simply incredible.

The Merc is too plain boring, i wouldnt even consider the C65 in this company.

SORRY TO DISAPPOINT YOU BUT THE CL 65 WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO REACH 220MPH SINCE ALL THE GERMAN CARS EXCEPT FOR PORSCHE ARE LIMITED TO A TOP SPEED OF 250 KM/H VIA GOVERNORS. AND ALL THE OTHER CARS IN THIS POLL CAN....

[MITSU-EVO]

Plus if you're talking about modification then this poll would be nonsense since you can smoke any of these four cars with a tuned Supra. My question was based on the standard cars.

[YogsVR4]

I'd take the Vanquish over the others without hesitation. I've never seen a more beautiful ride

[moslerporschefreak]

As far as performance is concerned, I would take the 575. Ferrari makes a fine automobile.

Still, that is not the point of the thread. A GT car should be judged equally upon apearance and comfort as it is for performance. These taken into consideration, yes the Aston Martin Vanquish does edge out in front in my book.
