What's up with this car...

[moveover]

...it's been on the forecourt for months.

I know it's not grey or black, but for someone wanting something a little different, it looks stunning. Not in the market myself, but I have similar colour spec so interested in why this one won't shift.

Sadly it's not in James Bond resale grey... and Vantage ownersd FREAK OUT if an interior isn't suicide black

That's an absolute stunner, but as much as I like oddly coloured Astons, that wouldn't be for me either. Whoever buys it will absolutely love it, but they're going to be a rare bird.

If I was to take a guess...I would say its just the colour combination that is either a love or hate relationship?

[AMDBSNick]

Absolutely stunning. I would buy that tomorrow but for the fact I'm saving up for a garage

I saw this Colour at the factory recently. Looked absolutely stunning. I'd have that at a drop of a hat.

Hmm i think it is a bit of an unusual colour which I am not sure will age that well. Yes it looks nice when all gleaming and clean, however with age I think the colour especially the inside will not look as nice as black for example.

Yes it does look "okay", but I'm not sure it shows off the Aston in its best light.

That interior
Who spec'ed that - Stevie Wonder?
The combination of black cherry and cream seats

Exterior colour is great, just crap photography, and the wrong angles. Doesn't show the colour well.

You no like??? Personally, I'd rather climb into a car with a bit of colour and panache. Getting into most dreary, I've-lost-the-will-to-live-a-little Astons is a bit like hiding under Helena Bonham Carter's dress collection.

Looks fantastic to me. In fact the only thing I can see wrong with it, is that it's missing 4 cylinders

Heh, the tide is turning for the Rainy-Day-Grey / Suicide Black cars

[Olympus]

Very seriously thinking of ordering a Vanquish in these colours. It is the lack of different tone between Amethyst and Black Cherry that makes it look coordinated and helps the black bits disappear.

Are you moving out now that you have three to disrupt your life?

[Slarti]

I just don't like the colours. I am however seriously bored of my tungsten with phantom grey interior -dull dull dull.

[RIB27]

I've seen this car and it looks good, not for me though.

[brakedwell]

The seats are the wrong colour. I have seen the car and loved it, until I opened a door! It might be worth fitting new seat covers which match the rest of the interior,but hat would set the dealer back about £3000.

This is why it's not selling:



It's brown !

It's purple actually! Looks fantastic under the right light too, as see here on the DBS Dragon 88 Edition:

[Neilc123]

Ah yes, the DBS Dragon edition - and we all know how well Aston Martins sell in the Chinese market that car was aimed for....

[mikey k]

Well to confirm the stereo type
Stunning exterior colour (was my first choice when I was contemplating the V12VR)
WTF happened inside?
Sport pack car as well

Is it just me who likes that interior?! Light coloured seats and dark dash/carpets that complement the outside of the car. Perfect combination for that exterior
