That is because the V8 Vantage (as well as the previous DB9/DBS) are really beautiful cars, in contrast to the new models as of 2015..... (ok, the new DBSS exterior looks great too, but the interior and the low-tech on-board..........many will pass and go for another brand). Let's wait and hope the next generation will be a positive surprise and can convince us to make the jump. In the mean time, stic to your V8V (and I will to my DBS)

My DBX arrived at the dealer today, 5 months from ordering.

Congratulations TAch and well done!

Once you get your stunning DBX home and have time to decompress, please post a few more pictures.

Other than playing with the Aston configurator, I have not seen a real white DBX and am very interested in seeing yours.

Thanks in advance and I wish you many enjoyable miles in your new Chariot.

My lunar white got home-delivered today. Quick comparison shot with the Macan before it got loaded for the return trip to the dealer. The solid white lunar looked brighter than the Porsche white, but can’t really tell with the overcast conditions. The only other white I’ve seen is the white stone and that looks good.

Very interesting perspective with the DBX and Macan and thank you for posting it.

I really like that you do not have the large triangular area aft of the front wheel vents in a darker color. Having the vent areas white with an elegant black stripe from front fender to door is simply elegant.

Please keep us posted on your continued thoughts as you get more familiar with your DBX.

One interesting thing on the DBX is the lack of trim around the side windows. Look at the top of the door panel, there is no trim. Closing the door it's either fingerprints on the paint or windows.

I thought the black triangle disrupted the flow of the body and character lines, as well as the optional black door handles. Closing the doors takes some effort without the soft close so no finger prints, just palm prints. The lack of a touchscreen isn’t a concern after personalizing the settings. I had the MB Comand on a S550 so it was familiar but it seems there are more choices to set up. I saw Sirius as a media source and just received an email for a free year of Sirius but I couldn’t pull it up...have to check the manual.

I would disagree with this. I'm in the market for a $215k SUV and was looking at the Turbo S e-Hybrid. While at the dealer (which also happens to have Aston Martins) I noticed the DBX. It is completely different than the Cayenne. The Cayenne is mass produced and the fit, finish and quality pales in comparison to the DBX I test drove. I have a Panamera Turbo and also a 911 GTS on order so trust me I love Porsche. The fact that a base Cayenne can be had for $70k with the same interior quality as a $215k Turbo S hybrid reconfirmed the decision for my wife and I. I'll be placing an order for the DBX and after driving both the DBX and Cayenne back to back the agile feel, premium interior and paint, endless array of customizable options it's a really a no brainer. The Cayenne Turbo I drove felt very utilitarian, which is fine by some standards but with the DBX I felt as if I was driving a rear wheel drive sports car. Considering that the general drivetrain of the DBX is geared to be more RWD it's just much more fun to drive than the Cayenne.

I had a DBX for week on loan. Amazing ride. Interior is a special place to be. Quality all over the place. Most comfortable seat of any Aston I have sat in. @harrish1985 is right. DBX is another league. Even in the four door segment beyond SUV's; the DBX is a strong contender at that price range.

Urus may look a little cooler if you want over the top. Urus interior is no way as nice. DBX feels like you want to drive for endless hours no problem.
