Hi everyone! Wanted to introduce myself and thank you all for the wealth of information I've been able to research over the last few years. This site helped me feel more confident in my search for an Aston, and I'm proud to say I recently picked up my very first one—a 2010 V8V in Quantum Silver.

I'm sure I'll have questions, and I'm glad I know where I can find some answers.

Very sharp eyes. She is a 2010—I went with the sport shift (I know, I know)—and that pic is right after a service at AM Palm Beach.

no excuse for ASM...I was a strictly manual guy for years but love the ASM... I actually prefer it as it's just easier and quicker to enjoy the drive

One thing I highly recommend is putting PPF on the top of the rear bumper where it meets the hatch. This area gets scratched too easily they way the hatch opens. If you use a CTEK, the cord will rub on the same area of the car.
