I am, admittedly, an Aston Martin fan, and I am also a fan of the AM305 (it's Ford prototype codename). As with Astons, I think it's important to note that they're not all about brutal speed (ie 911 Turbo) or cornering finesse (ie Ferrari 575M/360), but a driving experience as a whole. Astons, together with Rolls Royces, Jags and Range Rovers, are British institutions in their own right. It has been a case with these cars, that refinement and sportiness go hand in hand, although we have seen with the S-Type R and RRovers that refinement does seem to be more of a priority. So perhaps it isnt all about cornering Gs and straightline speed after all. Many ppl seem to be blinded just by figures and facts. There IS an emotive aspect to motoring as well.
