I would also say that Aston Martin's designers are about as lazy as those "designers" over in Stuttgart... every Aston looks the same!

Where can I sign this?

.....and please send a copy to Mr. Clarkson

But still.....the DB9 as well as the AMV8 look fantastic.....just like the 911 does

Quote from herki :

The Aston for me. The back of the Maserati - it looks horrible to me.

These are the older lights I wish they had kept:

Here's the older, cheaper, Japanese Maserati.

DB9, even though the looks are overrated.

the old maseratti looked better from the back untill they screwed up the lights to sell it in america,

The DB7 i dont really like...

The DBS (car in James bond) i love!!!!

Maserati, it has not that whale looks that Aston has and also rear is much better looking with great lights instead of over artistic nobody knows what stripes that Aston has, also Aston is too rounded, there is no any anger left in it's design, but have to say that either one is not good looking car.


This is good looking Aston Looks of it tells that it is fast machine and that it will not be tamed by anyone. Todays cars are so weak looking, maybe because buyers are weak too and too afraid of real car
Sadly, in that one too they failed to make good looking rear lights.

DB9... If Maserati had done some thinking and kept the rear lights, it might have been different...

DB9.

The Maserati just looks cheap to me. The rear lights are horrible now, and what's with the front lights hiding behind the clear plastic? It just looks wrong.

Errr........

Umm......


Ehh.......





They look flaccid.

DB9, all though, the maserati sure does look sexy in blue IMO

Didn't even need to look at the pictures, the Mazerati looks cheap...even Kia can make cars look like that. The DB9 is so good looking that I had to change my underwear the last time one drove past me

Can someone explain what does it mean that car looks cheap and what it has to do with how good car looks?

I know that I'm bit stupid on some things and this sure is one of things, I can judge that car looks good or bad, but for me car does not look expensive or cheap, those two actually look almost like exact copies of each other except Maserati has better small details

I think that the DB9's strong points are the clean flowing lines. And the profile is perfect as well. The Maserati has no real flow. The lines of the car are cluttered and all over the place.

I still think the DB7 is a nicer looking car, and the Baby Aston is even nicer (being a more sensible size too).

I mean it looks plastic and tacky, like they made it on a tight budget. The Aston Martin looks classy and well made, as if they used only the best materials and staff.

the back of the maseratti looks like the back of a vectra

Ah that way, hmm, lol, I think it is opposite, but then again, I'm bit wierd so you really can't trust my judgment a bit

I think more like Honda which is not too bad looking at all, but still that is Honda and it is rice and rice is something bad, however rear is nice looking in it.

Its probably because of the lighting more then anything and the paint work.

To say it looks plastic and tacky is really an insult to the designers, take a look at this version : http://www.autotrack.nl/img/maserati/gransport.jpg

I think that car is a beautiful machine and Ill take it over any DB9, as its a real sports car with real sports car looks.

IMO the DB4 GT Zagato looks better then the DB7 and DB9!

On that black maserati I notice that they really should do something to that oversized whale grille, 50% of that size is max that car should have. I'm pretty sure that car did not have such ugly grill before

It is not so bad in this one for some reason

I prefer the older Aston Martins for body shape. The DB9 looks a bit like a throat lozenge with wheels.

I think its probably the same size it might just look bigger at that angle, if compared with the DB9's front layout i think its smaller.
