$135,500. I was actually expecting it to be a lot more hehe but if I have to ask about maintenance, then it's clear I can't afford it.

Its nice. I would rather buy the Jaguar XKR for $20,000 less.

Yeah but he's pretty close to the dude beside him, I'd be pissed if someone hit my door with theirs, especially if I was driving that.

No you wouldnt, i drove both... and lets just say the Aston Martin has WAY better fit, finish, feel, sound, looks, quality... need i say more...

Tell me about it haha, wait one year and the new XKR will be like 30,000 :rofl:

New XKR is a beaaast but way to heavy feeling for my liking, the Vantange was a WAY nicer feeling car compaired to the XKR!! but i do admit the XKR has a nice backfire sound.

Thats the plan :thumbsup: but waiting for 2 years to get one that depreciated down to ~$30,000. Got a chance to check out the AM and XK side by side at Ray Catena's Porsche/Jaguar/AM dealership in Jersey. XK, in theory, is a cheap AM, but the differences are a world apart. Still, wouldn't mind the XK (even the old XK Coupe is one of the hottest coupes ever)

That would be quite the jump, from a GT-S to an XK!

Hey, I don't know if you've ever driven a car or parked, but according to that picture, can you tell me for sure that when he parked there, other cars weren't parked wrong, forcing him to park like that?

No. You can't. Thanks for posting. :rolleyes:

You gotta love beyond. Nice spotted thread of a dream car for most with actual pictures, and the convo goes to how the car is parked slightly offline...jealousy is a funny thing.

Beware the beyond parking posse, they're tentacles are more far reaching than you think......

Saw a couple of those parked together in vancouver last month, gorgeous cars! They too were angle parked, but I left a nasty note on their windshields.

If I spent that much money on a car I would go park somewhere else, since I would have realized that those people who parked badly before would eventually leave, and some normal drivers might show up. But hey, I guess I don't have enough expendable cash to fix door dings and scratches on my AM :dunno:

I saw that car today... with a frigging cat stuck inbetween it and the caliper :banghead:

The owner and I guess his dim-witted friend both uber young guys were contemplating taking the wheel off. neither of them had tools... or clearly a brain between them.

I was speaking english... the guy had a dead cat caught between the rear pass side wheel and teh caliper. The guy and his dumbass friend spent the better part of the day discussing how to remove it.
Many of my friends saw them there from 11am till 3PM beside the car poking the fucking cat.

Seriously? Too funny....not the same car that max posted, cause my father isn't a dumbass and doesn't associate with dumbasses :D
