We have a new resident on my road

Yup I am happy about it.
One of the guys here just sold his house. I am guessing this is what he bought with the money.

You know I've never understood buying cars like that.  Ya, they are cool, but I'd rather spend 30-50 thousand on a nice car than 300-500 thousand dollars.  If you have access to a racetrack however something like that would be sweeeeeet 8-)

Is it wise to leave it parked in the open like that?

He was never more than a few feet away at any one time. I got this when he rushed inside to get his suitcase. Plus I live in a pretty secure cul de sac.

Hi mate.
There are quite a few Astons around here.
Theres a guy as I mentioned before who owns two DB9's. A stunning Black one, and a grey one. I am guessing he is also the guy who used to own the dark blue one. Couple of these V8's as well. They are such stunningly good looking cars.

I my humble opinion, they are the most sexy dreamcars that exist... great lines, awsome motor and power, yet stylish... non of that "look at me, I'm driving a supercar that's so loud, your eyes may explode from the look of the coulor and extreme design"... not to mention the horrible accesibility of these cars... I nearly lost my Father in a Corvette... he had trouble getting out of that car...  ;D

No, the DB9, a true distiguished gentleman's car... that what I like...  ;)
