Aston Martin DB7 1997

     Notes: This is the successor to the heritage of the "DB cars" of the 1950s and 1960s.  It features a medium-weight car coupled with one of two extremely powerful engines, resulting in excellent performance and acceleration.  The steering and suspension have been engineered and tuned to provide both excellent ride quality and superb handling, along with good road feel.  This is a luxury car to boot, with virtually every accoutrement available.  The quality of its shifting mechanism is silk-smooth, even with automatic transmission.  Despite its weight, however, it is a small car, with a large amount of the weight taken up by the engine and its solid construction.  The front seat space is good, but the back seats are extremely cramped and the trunk space is small.  Premium fuel is required for proper operation.

Aston Martin Virage 1992-97

     Notes: This vehicle comes in two forms, the standard Virage coupe and the Volante convertible.  They are the descendants of the V8 coupe, named for their engines, and four are available, all very powerful.  Coupled with superb handling, a suspension that combines maneuverability with ride, and precise steering, mean that the Virage is capable of being taken to a level of driving far beyond most cars that are not racing cars.  It is also a luxury coupe, like the DB7.
