British Invasion Country Club Style

Aston Martin is coming up on its 100th birthday (2015) and is enjoying a resurgence (at least around here) like few others. This is the performance wing of the British Automotive Livery, and nobody else can duplicate the combination of sheer performance and utter sex appeal in one ride. Aston's today are beauties from any angle. The sound of their motor is very distinctive; a low rumble at idle and low revs that turns into a high pitched scream (about an octave below a Ferrari)at the rev limiter. These cars offer neck snapping performance that is fitted to the driver like a Saville Row suit. Compared to their Italian, German and American counterparts, an Aston Martin is like, well, Bond, James Bond.
