V12 Vantage is the answer...

Agreed, excellent song btw.

And what state would that be?

I too would have to say Thunderball is my favorite. That is until Casino Royale came out.

James Bond has always been about style. Sorry to say, there is no style in a wagon, even if it is the fastest wagon on the planet. I bet that monster would beet a number of GT cars besides the DBS. I have the unique perspective of owning both an AM and an M BMW vehicle. I can say that my X6M is like the space shuttle leaving the atmosphere. It is ineradicably fast. However it does feel large an not nearly as nimble as the Aston which will not hang with the big BMW in a straight line. They are 2 distinctly different vehicles with different vehicles and I am blessed to have both. Oh, by the way I am expecting delivery of my Vantage V12 in the Fall. That will make this discussion even more interesting. Until then....

To be fair, that M5 isn't stock. The ESS tuning puts it at least to 520 hp. Still, the DBS should be faster than it is. I bet I could take that M5, though... :-)
