Why is that? I think that what they think is important considering how much many of us judge people on silly things such as what car they have and what brand of clothes they wear..

EDIT: missed the smiley thing at the end. I thought you hated everybody below 18 for a minute!

Sure, it's important. Teens brought about the Bieb's popularity, after all.

Oh, wait...

Most of her fanbase may be teens but that doesn't mean most teens like her.

Most don't. None of my guy friends do, and they're usually the ones who talk about cars and such.
 
Jeremy Clarkson says its cool and constantly brags about them. Which in my opinion makes them seriously uncool.

That one weekend in Banbury, when it was out and about 6 months before it was released, made it Sub-Zero then and it has held onto that.

My point still stands - children are notoriously poor barometers of "cool", in general. They're quick to pick up on fads, which is quite a bit different. And, like many other things, there are exceptions. I don't mean it in any negative way, but I know that I definitely liked some questionable crap when I was a teen.

I definitely can agree with you on that. It's just that as of right now I spend most of my life around other teens so in my world this car would be very very cool.
 
I don't think I even remember a time Aston Martin made any car thats below cool. Every vehicle that came out looked stunning. That DBS has that appeal with not only looking and being very fast, but also being classy at the same time. I mean Lamborghinis look crazy and brash but are obviously fast, that DBS and Aston Martin marque is like the car you would drive to an art gallery.

Come to think of it, have they made a bad car? Yes. Here it is, the Cygnet, besides the interior, its pretty bad.

The Cygnet was an attempt by Aston to boost CAFE ratings.

Get ready for more cars like it.
 
I see some disturbing metrosexuality from some GTP members there.

The problem with any two Astons (excluding the Vantage) is that there's less visible difference between them than between a Porsche 997 and a Porsche 991.

Though that picture has reminded me how damn pretty the DB7 looked. It's elegant in a way none of their cars since have quite matched. Think the low tail and slimmer profile has a lot to do with it.
 
That arse... weeeehooo...

I'm actually particular to the Rapide. I like the long, low lines.

Given it looks exactly like any other Aston, it's a heck of a lot prettier than a Quattroporte or a Panamera.
 
It is a beautiful, sexy, raw, sensual, and classy beast of a car. That makes people's day when they gaze upon its magnificence and hear its bass rich roar echoing through the concrete jungle.

And why would you change the styling? Can you change perfection? Would you?

Sub-zero.

I think more than that even is probably the fact that the DB7 doesn't have the exaggerated flanks that everything Vanquish and up did.
 
That too. And a higher glass to body ratio. More classically attractive than the slightly aggressive ones that followed.
