Aston Racing Green or Casino Royale Green would look awesome. They're classic Aston colours and suit the DBS wonderfully. Then again, the DBS looks beautiful regardless of the the colour.

Since we're talking Astons, I decided to use the UK spelling of "colors".

Closest color to it would be glacial blue

That would be sick, didn't Merc develop a special kind of silver/grey for the introduction of the R (I think) which is designed to show off a car's curves?

For me, if the car has lots of vents & side curves its better to go with light colors such as LP640, DBS & 599

For cars that are mainly plain without or littile side vents such as Maserati GT, F430 it looks nice in dark colors

I totally agree with you. The white looks awesome and it's probably what I would do if ordering. When I was at service on Friday, there was the first automatic DBS there getting prepped for delivery and being sent to CA (from NY). The guy who's car it was had bought a 6-speed to tide him over until the auto came in. I wonder if he'll keep both as the 6-speed is here in NY.
Anyway, the auto car had the Quicksilver exhaust and it sounded great. They had black, titanium silver, Casino Royale and the lighter gray (grigio?). I think the titanium showed off the design best of those colors, being the lightest color. The blue and green shown in this thread look like girly colors IMO. Do the white with black & red interior, red calipers and the quilted seats.

White with dark gray wheels is my pick. And like u mentioned, cars with more vents goes better with lighter colors.

Mabrook in advance. Good choice.
