About 37 years ago in North Carolina I was held up at the airport hotel because of weather (I had my own plane) - across the street was an Aston dealer and they had a new Lagonda on the showroom, at the time one of the most expensive cars in the world. The salesman asked if I wanted to sit in the car - from that moment I was smitten.

Almost 1 year (organized purchased about a year ago, managed actual pick up about 11 months ago).
Because I can't leave well enough alone, in the last 11 months I've done:
H&R Springs
BC Forged Wheels
Porterfield R4S Pads
Tubular Headers
High Flow Cats
X Pipe
VAP Valvetronic Exhaust
VAP Air Filters
VAP Tune
Oil Catch Can
CC Charger Exhaust Control
Aston Installations HD Screen/Wireless Carplay
Floor mats
V8S/Roadster undertray/stiffners
Aston "spats" to front wheel arches
Clear taillights
Full professional polish/ceramic coat
35% Tint All Around
Working on changing to glass buttons and the later model center console now. I'd like to do V12 side skirts and a full ECPS carbon interior kit this winter, and eventually have the door cards and seat centers re-trimmed with a diamond pleating (I have an obsession with this).
Love the car, plan to keep it for quite a while, it's a great driver.

2019 DBS Superleggera bought in 2020 (1800 miles) only 19000 miles at the moment...
Nothing like them!

2012 Virage, got it 2 years ago almost exactly (18k miles) and now coming up on 25k.
Have always had British cars of some sort or other but daydreamed about an Aston. Don't think I'll ever get rid of it, I couldn't give up that sound. There won't be any more like these, with a big naturally aspirated 12, and I wanted that experience before they disappeared.
Really nothing like it, Astons feels special even when you are doing the most mundane things.
