That car is sub zero on looks alone.

If only Casino Royale would have feature a much longer chase scene. I'm hoping that some extended version will come out on dvd featuring just such a chase.

it's just on the right side of the cool/subzero border for me, so SZ. It's just the big, proper, grown up, manly Aston Martin... from some angles, the DB9 and especially the Bond DBS can look a little, uhm, "short", not as fully stretched out as they should be, giving them a "fat/overweight" look imo... this just looks lean and tough from every angle

i had to give it an uncool, because of those but ugly fog lights :x how could they do that? they ruined a perfectly fine car by adding some tasteless lights that the car doesn't deserve. they properly ruined this one imo

and the fact that 007 drove one doesn't help a single bit, imo it just puts it down even more. the movie was rediculous imo and he just HAD to crash it... *sigh* why couldn't he have crashed the Ford?

Cool based on looks for sure. But a DB9 or a the V8 Vantage is better car for the money.
