Trip to LA to pick up a Vanquish
My GF and I took a little road trip to LA this past weekend to drop off a Cayman S and pick up an 03 Vanquish.
About 30 minutes into the drive I went through the computer, and noticed that the tire pressure was a little off, lol. The front tires were at 22PSI and the rear tires 72PSI. We got off the first exist and made the needed adjustments and were on our way.
The GF not looking to happy because the radar was going off for 10 minutes straight when a CHP plane was following us onto the 5. I guess I should have kept it under 100 through Livermore.
The next morning the Cayman S battery was dead so I had to swap it out before driving to the dealer to pick up the Vanquish.
My good friend Reza's Phantom on 24's in front of his home in West Hollywood.
The 03 Black Vanquish in the showroom waiting for delivery.
Discussing the details and the price of the 2 Murcies

Congratulations on the Aston Martin its a great car, I drove the Vanquish S ultimate edition and I must say everything is fabulous from the exhaust noise to the interior fit and finish. Enjoy it in the best of health.

I love the sound of the vanquish, its hard to beat the sound of a V-12. As we were leaving LA driving down Sunset I flew by one of those star tour buses and down shifted letting out a sound that had me grining from ear to ear. All the tourist looked over and snapped pics, it was halarious.

Congrats on the new car... I like how the Vanquish looks like it's grinning at you, I'm sure you had the same smile on your face as you left the dealership!
