Event: Cars and Coffee June 2012, Part 3

What's not to love about Aston Martin?

Our first choice for a lottery car is the DBS.
Comfort, style, and adequate performance, all in one well made package.
Astons have some of the best proportioning in the industry.
You just can't find a bad angle.
Then again, their new line of ultra GT luxury is quite tempting as well...
The new Virage is incredibly stunning.
We don't believe that there's a glossier black from any other manufacturer.




The build quality of the interior is second only to Rolls Royce.
If only they would update the steering wheel. It's straight out of the DB9 from way back in 2004 and really dates the interior.
We'd call it a minor complaint but the steering wheel is your direct interface with a car and if it's dated it makes the rest of the car feel dated.
But we do love the large light catcher that runs from the bottom of the lower fascia down the sill of the car.
Classic Alfas are always a show pleaser.
This one was in pristine condition inside and out.
Perfect interior.
It's amazing how two cars from the same area can contrast so vividly.
Another replica GT40
We love how low these cars are. It must take years of practice to figure out how to enter and exit these cars gracefully!
Always remember that your spinners need safety wire and the red is for the driver side...
...and blue is for passenger. One side is reverse threaded to keep the spinner from wandering off while you're trying to earn more man points while racing your GT40.
 A black Black.
German muscle at it's finest.
We still say that Aston has the better paint finish but Mercs don't give up the title that easily.
The thought of a custom Pantera never crossed our minds until we saw this car.
Now that's just about the only way we'd have one!
No expense spared on this one.
The one lug hubs where oh so nice.
Maybe we don't want any custom Pantera, we just want this one!
