Ferrari 360 Modena F1 vs Aston Martin DB7 GTA

[mclarenmike]

I know it's a bit like comparing chalk and cheese but...

If you could only ever have one or the other would it be a red Ferrari 360 F1 or a British Racing Green Aston Martin DB7 GTA???

If I could only have one or the other - ever, I think I would go for the Aston, because It has a luxurious interior, but the car is still sporting. The Ferrari is too much of an addrenaline rush for an everyday car, plus I prefer Britsh racing green over red.

Although, you didn't say it could be my only car, so maybe I would go for the 360 just for kicks, preferably a Spyder .

I like a lot more Italian cars plus I dont think it would be to much adrenaline to have a 360 every day, you can always drive slow

ferrari all the way. i havent heard very good things about british built engines. granted im sure the ferrari isnt exactly a 200,000 miles car, but..... no nevermind i dont know where im going with that one... gimmie the ferrari!

[LateNightCable]

What is this, 1960? Thats' a Ford under the bonnett. I kinda wish it was 1960.

And drive a Ferrari slow? Whatever you say .

[djfux69]

yeah, driving a ferrari slow is kind of like having a naked, and horny supermodel in your room and not having sex with her...... not going to happen!!!!

Ford my arse. It's a Cosworth engine. It may be based on an expanded version of a 3-litre Ford unit, but Ford didn't make the 6-litre V12 (as far as I understand, anyway), Cosworth did. Shit, now Ford build it. :roll: Oh bugger, where do you draw the line?!
I'd have the Aston DB7, but the GT, not GTA - auto 'boxes are truly shocking. It's the most gorgeous car to be built for a very long time, as opposed to the 360; which I liken to a squashed frog. By my reconing, Ferrari haven't built a Ferrari since the 308. I don't know about B.R.Green, but perhaps a nice blue or silver, or possibly black.
As for too adrenaline-inducing, does that mean the DB7 isn't? It's not an out-and-out sports car as the 360 is, but it would definately get my adrenaline going - and people wouldn't spit on it, as they would a Ferrari.

[djfux69]

where do you live that they spit on ferraris??? i beleive there is something that happens to people that do that.... what was it again??? oh yeah, eternal damnation

[SpEeDiSaDdIcTiVe]

Land of the Queen, the thousand marques, right-hand drive cars, crazy bends and the home of Aston Martin - Great Britain.
People spit on Ferraris because those who own them are flashy bastards, who care more about the latest Gucci sunglasses than decent sports cars.[/i]

[djfux69]

so let me get this straight..... ferraris arent decent sports cars? and Astons are? sorry but in my opinion, if i want a great, not decent, sportscar, i go for the ferrari. i would think that the aston people are more concered with image as the aston has more luxuries, which sports cars do not need.
