I would take a panamera over an Aston for the simple fact that you can get it worked on in almost every city in the country. Not so with an Aston Martin. If you want four people you either get the Panamera or a Rapide. Comparing the DBs and the Panamera is not apples and apples. For a four seater I'll take the Porsche.

What I like about AM is that they're always in a class of its own. You can never compare them to Ferraris, Porsches or Lambos.

Have a friend that owns a Vantage, and workmanship on the interior is excellent and second to none.

The Aston is a beautiful car and even Jeremy on Top Gear was enthusiastic about it. We've had a fellow tracking his Panamera Turbo at DE events lately and I must admit, it is a very capable/fast car.

The Aston is pure sex appeal, however.
