Absolutely beautiful! Congrats on the purchase. This is my favorite color combo... so classy yet sporty.

This past weekend was British Car Day at Redmond Washington. Some interesting cars...

DB2/4 (1955?)


DBR2 (one of only 2 in the world) was actually driven to the event!!




And more recent models too...

wheels for sure but, I really like the stock wheels.... I'm pretty sure the springs will fit but, I called H&R and they are really confused by the Virage. Modern day AM according to H&R include Vantage, DB9, DBS and Volante..... The springs I have will fit a 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013 DB9 but not the Virage? DBS is a different part number and they say the last Vanquish was in 2006. Not much help. My concern is that the front spoiler seems lower than on the DB9 and lowering it could be a problem. .....wish there was a height adjustment!

Going to check part numbers for the springs on the 2012 DB9 and the Virage to see if that will help.

In either case, the HREs will fill out the fenders better. Waiting on TPMS b/c they are different than the DB9 part number.

Great car...is it manual or sport pack this one?

The Virage is/was only available with TT2 and no sport pack although it does have damper adjustment and sport button that remaps throttle response and opens exhaust valves (vacuum hoses on either side of resonator have been removed...). My initial opinion of the TT2 is very favorable. So far, I like.

I suspect the springs will fit and I will prolly go that route b/c the stance is soooooo much improved!

V12 Zagato

Picked this one up in Gaydon the week before the 24hr at Nurburgring. The team at Aston built the perfect V12V. I tried to get larger photos but it would only post thumbnails.
