Benjamin Choi is infamous around these parts

db9 mansory kit else vanq '06 with manual shifter.

but yea, the vanq S is by far the best looking aston ever made. db9 is a bit slabsided in comparison and this includes the dbs.

I still have a Master with Record and Delta brakes from when I raced Junior. In Ferrari Red of course. I still compete regularly in 30+ and the odd Pro 1/2 Race. Still like to mix it up a bit. Looking at getting a "retirement/Sunday bike" and another Colnago is definately on the list. They just released a retro Master Light in the Saronni colours. Quite the bike. Cheers and keep turning those pedals!

Maybe because both the Vanquish and the DB9 are not sportcars but GTs?
Even so, I would take any Ferrari with a F1 gearbox, not manual.
