I’d buy an Aston Martin instead of any on your list, given the (only moderate) price differential — hell, id sooner by a slightly loved Aston for the same price as a new 911; at least it’d be pretty.

A slightly loved Aston would be half the price. They tank in value.

It’s interesting though, and I’m an Aston lover too.

But it’s interesting because Aston had certainly remained more exclusive through manufacturing less cars. That’s for sure. But they tank in value because most folks simply don’t want them. I’d guess it’s because the performance isn’t even comparable to a 911.

You could buy a very nice V8 Vantage for just over 100k. Ive thought about it many times. And I’ll likely get one someday. But really your just getting an AMG anyway.

Had a DBS once. A beautiful car. But I just didn’t love it.
