    A side by side would be nice.(or over/under?) Beautiful car by the way. Do you agree?

    The Aston looks nice, but the wheels are not very attractive on that car as well IMHO!

    Aston-Martins are always beautiful but the wheels - ugh. I like the R8 Y-Spokes better but miss my HREs. Now that I've got my handy puck from Microys, I think I'll get em switched back.

    i hate overly-complicated wheel designs...but there is a market for every design, just look at Asanti or Forgiato etc. *horror*

    That aston is an abomination. Kind of reminds me of the Nissan GTR... oh well, can't argue about taste.

    'Abomination' is a bit harsh but I agree about the GTR roofline. Hadn't noticed that before. I like everything from the door opening forward, though. An aggressive-looking A-M that probably doesn't live up to its fierce looks as is the usual for A-Ms. It's also probably way overpriced.

    It was the wheels similarity that I observed and how they managed to take inspiration from the R8 V10's less-than-beautiful wheels and somehow make them completely vomitacious.
