I have the nausee when i look at a porsche, I wander if its possibe to use a same design for 250 years like this,,,when i looked at these 2 round headlights, I want vomit, i do not acre if the porsche is 10% quicker at slow speed, i do not need this, or this is for these idiots playboys late back.....i never thought a car brand could use this same design for so long, its a rippoff.

Reading this made my head hurt. Still not entirely sure what it means but there is a reason why the 911 evolves subtly with each generation - It's an iconic design that an awful lot of people love.

And how is it a rip off when the performance and practicality are unmatched at this price point?

As an everyday car nothing else comes close IMO. The Aston's too shouty and I don't like the interior. The steering wheel is hideous.

I assume the word is nausea?

Anyways - I can only imagine that people who want an Aston above anything will choose the DB11. It fails in its looks in every department that the Vantage/DB9/DBS succeeds imho.

You mean mid-life-crisissers who want to believe they're Bond?

Well that's certainly one sub-section

I still haven't had a chance to walk around a DB11 but they don't photograph well and are colour sensitive.
Not a good sign. Nevertheless, more attractive IMHO than another freaking 911.
