Car & Driver V12V Video story
#4
I was set on that color or merlot but ended up with tungsten. If not forthe black vents, I would have ended up with one of those hues. Of course when I toured the factory, they said they would have painted them if asked. Bummer.

Thanks for the link! Best Aston review I have ever watched, bar none. I think in general that the automotive press chases raw performance numbers too much, and forgets that most cars are driven on the street in the real world. This guy clearly gets it, and he has summarized why the V12V is such a great achievement, judged solely on its merits as a drivers car, without needing to fall back on cliches like 'class', cachet or the 007 connection.

spinecho - Agree, so tired of hearing the standard cliches . . . nice to see the car judged purely on it's own merits.
ON ANOTHER NOTE:
They do list this car as a 2013 Coupe (in the another post, it was suggested production might stop on the coupes for next year) But then again, the narrator did also say it was a 5.9L while showing the engine cover of 6.0 . . .
