Car Forum / Driving, Maintenance, Tuning / General Car Topics / January 2007USA vs. UK; Topic 1 (RWD super cars)
A topic basicly about the Aston Martin DB9 vs. Chevrolet Corvette Z06. [sorry if this is in the wrong place] I used to make this series of topics on a recently closed car forum, so I decided to make them here too. so *Aston Martin vs. Chevy* debate!!!  SignatureAston Martin DB9 http://www.automotiveforums.com Just look at the price difference and power output.

Really they are in different classes, the Corvette is a mass produced sports car, the Aston is a very high quality, handbuilt to order Grand Tourer. Money no object i'd take the Aston, it's the better car. Signaturegmvortec http://www.automotiveforums.com gmvortec Wrote: > Money no object i'd take the Aston, it's the better car. Well, it's the more expensive car, but not the better car: DB9: Z06: Weight: 4630 lbs 3132 lbs Horsepower: 450 hp 505 hp Torque: 420 lbs/tq 470 lbs/tq 0-60mph: 4.7 sec 3.7 sec Top speed: 186 mph 198 mph I also know a guy who was planning to buy a DB9 - the dealer let him drive the car for a few weeks before he decided. In the few weeks he had the car he had many problems w/ electrical and other things. A knob on the radio (or it might have been the light switch) fell off, and a whole list of other little things. If I have to settle for high performance in a poor quality package I wouldn't want to pay $200,000 for it. I'd settle for the $70,000 'vette.

Its probably just me but I think those cars are both kinda pointless but if it came right down to it the Corvette simply to show patriotism. Signaturemidgetracing28 http://www.automotiveforums.com well the C7 has grown on me. i still like the aston, but not that aston between these two, i'd take the corvette what i really want is the V8 vantage coupe. SignatureGreyGoose006 http://www.automotiveforums.com I think I'd take a V12 Vanquish over them both. Obviously if I had the money to buy a Vanquish, I could afford a Vette too, so problem solved. As for which one's the better performance car, its painfully obvious the Vette is better than a DB9. SignatureXeVeNskyLiNE http://www.automotiveforums.com |
