Alright! A review it is then! I'll make time this evening to post my thoughts.

And just to hype things up a bit - I walked away from the drive with some strong opinions, some of which were unexpected.

The Aston martin's proportions are so well balanced, it's amazing how beautiful this car is.

For me the Aston-Martin DB9 is the best looking car in the world. There are plenty of good looking cars out there, but the DB9 closer to perfect than anything else. It wins the prestigious Merc1 "Best Loooking Car in the World" award, a very high honor.

Wow, that's an awesome oppurtunity for you Mr. Osna!!

Hmmm I don't know what I would choose. The DB9 because it is one of the most beautiful cars in the world, or the 997, because it is one of the best driving cars in the world...ARGH I can't decide!!
