Looking at 02 DB7 Vantage Volare
Newbie here. Going to look at a DB7 this weekend. It will be my first drive of an Aston. Always wanted one. Thinking of trading in my 911. What should I expect, and what should I look for? I've done quite a bit of research online already and I haven't found any real nightmares as far as maintenance goes. I saw one post on here that compared costs to the 911. Any more thoughts on that? The 911 has been very good to me so far...can I expect the same with a DB7? Thanks.

Hi. I don't have any answers for you, but you might try the Aston Martin Life forum. The 6speed Aston forum tends to be Vantage-centric. Good luck.

Thanks. I'll check it out. I've already learned so much from here and AMOC. Astonmartins.com has great information too.
