Wow, what a great way to ruin a great car; putting a B-2 bomber on the back of it.

Pretty sure that's the factory wing on it. Unlike your run of the mill Canadian tire spoiler, it's actually functional in creating down force. May not look the greatest, but it is indeed there for a purpose. Not that he'll need it driving around Calgary.

^ APR, not factory, but looks like it is functional and adjustable

he's everywhere!

Had a run in with this guy today down by Tunerworks. Not my cup of tea in terms of styling but you have to appreciate the amount of work what went into it. Too bad the driver drives like a douche. Drives up behind my car parked at the side of the road while I'm talking with a business owner (business on the same street as Tunerworks), just to get us to look at him and wonder what the hell he's doing. Then he immediately pulls out right beside my car and guns it kicking up rocks and shit everywhere. The business owner is somewhat well known for the work he does, and he's worked on a lot of nice/exotic cars, immediately looks at me and says "why would you do that to your car, it looks horrible!" :rofl:

I guess he's been driving around a lot today. I saw him on 17th while having lunch @ Melrose.

I built this car but do not own the car. We did it at the Aston dealership as a "fun" project and was never intended to be sold that way. We didnt even mount the wing to the car. Customer came in and wanted the car exactly at it was so being in the car business, we respected the customers requests and had custom wing mounts made to have the wing installed. It was built as a promo replica vehicle with requests from management. I was allowed to do the next promo vehicle on my own and built this one..

WOW!

Subdued and tasteful, very nice.:drool: :drool:

Personally I would take the "Vantage" and the AM logo off the back but that's just me.

[n1zm0]

[JordanLotoski]

Both those cars will be at the Charity Car cruise June 4th

So it's not a real DBRS9, just a look alike?

My co-worker was talking about that car at lunch. He said he got his coffee and was walking back to his car when buddy in the Austin pulls a nice drift leaving the parking lot. Too bad the cops were there and nailed him right away.:facepalm:

Was that the joke you were trying to pull off?? Or are you really asking?

[civic_stylez]

Thanks for the compliments, its was a really fun build and I have an absolute blast driving it. I believe we have it listed at $197,000 with all the accessories on it. Car gets a ridiculous amount of attention on the street... cant stop anywhere without being asked about it. The next build is going to be even more exciting though!!:devil:

[BokCh0y]

Beautiful car...too bad about the spoiler.

[Stealth22]

$197k, eh?

One day... :cry:
