Not silver or gray

Opinions, please, gentlemen.

I’ve had 8 Aston Martins and all have been some form of silver/gray (Tungsten, Meteorite, Magnetic, etc.), but I am considering something completely different for a DBS now. I like the Q Satin Xenon, but neither my wife nor most of my friends like the matte finish paints at all. Not even a little bit, which surprised me.

A number of the YouTube DBS reviews feature Superleggeras sporting red metallic paint (and the unfortunate black tops), and a couple of those reds have grown on me. I’ve never owned a red car in my life, so this would be a huge departure for my image. Might have to have the roof strakes painted to match the body color, though.

Anyone seen the brighter-color DBSs, and admired them?

Thanks in advance…..

Thanks for the input and photos, everyone. I am picking up the red DBS in a couple of days. I’m sure the Highway Patrol will be able to spot me from a much greater distance than my Magnetic Silver Vanquish S. It will make my Aston so much easier to find amongst all of the other Aston Martins in the grocery store parking lot, though.
