price difference is ... gasp. 380k for the 599 ... plus how much over? Crazy.

I love the DBS ... just wish it had the Ferrari engine, lost the Robocop shifter and wrong way RPM gauge ...

I'm definitely in the minority on this one - but I don't think the Aston holds a candle to the 599.

The DBS is gorgeous but I'd choose the 599 every time. I get how some people like the Aston's styling better but even though I adore the Aston. In my humble opinion it can't hold a candle to Ferrari in terms of looks or otherwise.
Great article thanks for the post.

The 599 is a faster car, but the DBS driver is probably doin' the 599 driver's wife.

I think the DBS is the best looking production car regardless of price.
