Jonmartin · 10-12-2007, 07:03 PM

Most real watch enthusiast consider jaeger le coultre Far better then rolex although I like Rolex I have to agree.

Dammmittt · 10-12-2007, 07:09 PM

We should be recieving our first DBS next month at work. Can't wait.

O-cha · 11-06-2007, 11:51 PM

So they took the tiny RF chip out of the FOB and put it in a watch and want to justify 34k for doing so?

ArmyBimmerDude · 11-06-2007, 11:56 PM

No thanks. Gimme my DBS and $70 Fossil watch and I'll be happy.

11-06-2007, 11:57 PM

damn i like that watch definately gotta show this to my dad i think he'll like it

OC Guy · 11-07-2007, 12:02 AM

Okay that will cost almost as much as my car. Crazy.

11-07-2007, 12:06 AM

wait... can you buy the watch by itself?

335iheLLraiseR · 11-07-2007, 12:21 AM

actually my boss' wife has one and she says its a piece of shit, the dash peels off along with the steering wheel. cheapy.

e90-4aj · 11-07-2007, 12:26 AM

the Martin is SICK!!!

335iheLLraiseR · 11-07-2007, 12:32 AM

its still a ford.

E90SLAM · 11-07-2007, 12:50 AM

Aston Martin always looks very very NICE!!!

But there's so many switches and buttons you can also find from Ford and Volvo....its a total turn off!

Jonmartin · 11-07-2007, 12:59 AM

Wow alot of people don't know wth they're talking about "still a ford" um ok...Just because it's owned by Ford doesn't mean it's a Ford engineered product.Also if the dash also peels like your friend claims it's called maintenace any car with a leather dash will eventually do that Ferraris do that often.It's part of the game owning an exotic other wise you stick to cheaper Disposable cars like Toyota since Vinyl /Plastic dashes last forever.

I dunno how they get away with that cheap ass Ford Focus interior....

it was a joke man...just being sarcastic.

but the shit with the interior is true though, it is lady driven, and its only driven about 12 miles daily, yet the buttons to shift, the paint on the dash, and the steering wheels is coming off. She was a little dissappointed for a $2200 monthly car payment.

imolazhp_ci · 11-07-2007, 01:19 AM

seriously, i don't know how many of you have actually driven an AM but there is definitely a reason they are struggling. my dad purchased a DB9 last year and yes, the car is the most beautiful thing in the world, it sounds unbelievable and has some power... but seriously, its slow, handles like garbage, and although the materials are top notch, the assembly and build quality is a complete joke. my dad sold the car after 2 months and let me drive it for the last few days he had it and seriously... man, it's a real shame that such a beautiful car can be such an incredibly huge piece of trash. he traded it in for a bentley GT and at least in their current state, Aston is NOWHERE NEAR being in the same league as bentley... and i understand the whole "its a different car thing..." but the amazing thing is, the bentley was cheaper, handled better, was faster, and the build quality was absolutely out of this world, better than anything i have ever seen... the car was totally bulletproof. never a single problem... the Bentley GT is a phenomenal car, especially compared to the DB9.
