Aston Martin

The Aston Martin DB11 is a super grand touring car. Available as a coupe or convertible, there isn’t much on the market today that looks as good as the DB11. Power comes from a choice of turbocharged engines, a 4.0-liter V8, or a 5.2-liter V12. 

No luxury automobile manufacturer can resist the allure and potential profits of offering a SUV. Aston Martin is no different. The DBX is a mid-size utility vehicle that focuses on performance as any good vehicle from the British manufacturer should. 

Aston Martin’s latest financials reveal a bloodbath.

Aston Martin just pulled off the Formula 1 equivalent of signing LeBron James in his prime, landing Adrian Newey—the most revered designer in the sport’s modern era.

Aston Martin is bringing the Vanquish back after a six-year hiatus, and it’s clear they’re sticking to their formula: big, fast, and unapologetically expensive.

Aston Martin will be looking for overall victory at Le Mans next year as the brand announced a pair of Valkyrie AMR-LMH prototypes will contest the 2025 FIA World Endurance Championship.

For 25 years Aston Martin has offered a V12 in its flagship cars. That, shockingly, isn’t about to change. Aston promises huge power from a similarly huge twin-turbo V12 engine, with a claimed 824 horsepower and 738 pound-feet of torque on tap for what will surely be the next Vanquish. The last Vanquish bowed out in 2018, and its 6.0-liter naturally-aspirated V12 made 580 hp and 465 lb-ft. It’s a tremendous improvement and one that comes as a result of an entirely new V12.

A report by Autocar indicates that Aston Martin will continue to sell combustion cars after pushing back the launch of its first EV to 2027.

Way back in 2013, Dutch supercar manufacturer Spyker filed a trademark application with the European Union Intellectual Property Office (EU IPO) for the word “Venator.” The filing was approved, and Spyker held the trademark until March 4th. The automaker never did anything with it, and it was perhaps reserved for a future model before the brand declared bankruptcy in December 2014. But just yesterday, on March 22, Aston Martin filed to retain the trademark on Venator for itself. Why isn’t exactly clear, but the name has some history elsewhere too.

Unfortunately for the automotive world, there are legal limitations on what can be driven on public roads.

Just like anything else, supercars suffer from depreciation, making them a bargain buy as they age before they start getting collectible. It’s been interesting to watch the market over the last few years, as we’re seeing these depreciation curves shifting in a variety of vehicles. As you’ll see below, some of our selections are already climbing in value, whereas others have yet to hit the bottom of their price curve. Either way, a pre-owned supercar is a great way to get a lot of car for a lot less bank, though it’s not without its pitfalls. The more complex the car, the fussier its engine and electronics can be, and thus more expensive its repairs can get. Buy with caution, and plan on setting some cash aside for fixing it up, but you’ll be happy you did.

When Chevrolet unveiled the C8 Corvette last night, there were a lot of surprises, but the two biggest ones were the 0-60 MPH time and the price. Considered together, Chevrolet’s promise that the C8 will start below $60,000 and hit 60 mph in less than 3 seconds is wildly impressive.

After another brutal Midwestern winter, warm weather is finally upon us once more. This makes convertibles top of mind, and here’s a list of our favorite ones.

Another Geneva Motor Show is in the rear-view mirror, which means it’s time for us to start making fun of all the stuff we didn’t like.

While handing me a plate of pan-fried fungi, the mustached, silver-haired proprietor of the Portuguese eatery we patronized for lunch said to me with a certain pride in his authoritative but subdued voice, “You have to write that Aston Martin brought you to a restaurant with the best mushrooms in the world.” I wouldn’t have taken him up on this editorial suggestion if he weren’t right.
