Aston Martin Forums...

First off I want to say that the AM forum here has been awesome. In fact, is it the most active forum out there?
I am on AMOC as well, but that platform looks so ancient and not too active either.
Any other AM forums for info?

pistonheads is the only other comparable to this, but mostly brits from my reading. This has taken off in the last year or so.

A listing should be made similar to pistonheads of every owner and their model of AM. As the age thread brought out a lot of seldom posters. An active forum will help you guys a lot as these cars age.

Are we able to request that certain Aston-specific posts get 'stickied' on here? I think that would help the forum and users as well (and keep things organized and avoid repetition). Off the top of my head I'm thinking about:
  • A cabin light replacement thread
  • A definitive Fuse 22 thread (with How To's for various mods)
  • A "What do you think about the price of this Aston" thread


... I'm sure there are others ...

I'm on PistonHeads too. It's interesting to get the British perspective on things and there are more V12V posters there.

I browsed through pistonheads, some times hard to get through the British lingo and sense of humor. It would be nice if there were a larger US forum and thus organize meets and such.

Congrats on your purchase! I see you went with the N400.

Hey Ross, thanks!
Yea, I haven't posted anything about it just yet, as I am waiting for delivery in 2 days....yes, it's an 08 V8 manual Nurburgring Edition, so has the 400 bhp, clear tail lights, etc. Can't wait to get it, losing sleep over it heh.

I see you had the Elise and Noble before....ever think of buying a Lotus again?

I sold my track Elise, and regret it....think I'm going to pick one up again.

I don't have the flexibility needed to get in and out of the current gen Elise . My next car will probably be the Esprit if it turns out as good as it seems.

I can't wait to see pics!
