I have been looking at the pictures of your car and appreciating the sexiness/posture of this car. I really miss my AM, but did not own the DBS. The Vantage really needed some ponies, so I traded for something more aggressive. I can never get tired of looking at an AM. I really believe it's the best looking car out there, classy and somewhat understated.
love it. Enjoy in good health.

Well today, I would like to show you a photo shoot that my friend and I took for a loaner from the Aston Martin Dealer, they wanted me to test this baby, and I had it for few days.. I hope you will like it..

Wow I just realized that I haven't updated this thread since 2010.. many things happened since then.. I can say that I bought a new DBS, well at least it felt that way. hehehe
Actually I didn't, I decided to go for a change after a year and half of driving it, and wrapped this baby up with lightning silver foil. The two conditions I had for the company who did the job are that they have to match at least 90% of the silver color to the lightning silver shade, which they did, they went to the AM dealer and picked up a sample and worked on getting that shade.. and the second condition was that they apply it so perfectly, that no one can see the lines and cuts with their bare eyes even if they come very close.. In other words I wanted it as close as it could possibly be to a real paint job, which again they mastered.. I leave you with some videos I took for the end results..
best regards,

How much did the job cost? The DB9s were never made in that color in my2008

Very nice. Lightning silver is on my short list of colors when I finally look for my DBS. The foil job is pretty much perfect from what I can see in the photos.
If you weren't in Vienna I would offer you a temporary trade on my Bosendorfer Imperial, but you could probably just walk down the street and visit Rupert anytime you'd like
I need to take him up on his offer to come visit - I'd love to take a look at the job they did on your car.

and I'm pleased to see it is a manual - good man, enjoy the beast.

I hope you will like the new video.. I think it'll be the last for the season, cos the weather is starting to turn slowly..
