It's a pity that the design is the only good thing about this car. By all accounts, it shouldn't cost more than 200K dollars, because it's just a Mercedes with a different design. At the same time, Aston Martin is in many ways inferior to Mercedes. Especially if it breaks down or gets into an accident...

Rory is definitely one of the best current reviewers out there today. None of the fluff and BS that come with most of the others.

their crew, pre and post production, are excellent for the short video segment..

Can't get that feeling with an EV

I'm not sure how much of the review is written before hand... But I got to say that I really enjoyed how laid back and relaxing this video came out of the final edit.

The subtle changes to design makes this a beautiful car over the DB11. Previously, I found the DBS (2008 to 12) and Vanquish (pre 2018) to be stunning. The DB12 is the design evolution (interior and exterior) that Aston Martin needed. Rory's review was top notch as usual.

@huynguy9175

agree, DB12 is more sporty and modern, suitable to young generation than classic on other version.

At a time when I can look at a Ferrari and be like « Meh », look at a Lamborghini and think « this is too much » or look at a Porsche and say « this is not enough ». When I look at an Aston Martin, I say « this is it ». How can they keep making their card so beautiful.

For me if you drive an Aston you've got to have some James Bond theme music to get thoset emotions flowing. However probably the musical rights make it a non starter. Shame though 😔

Amazing car , amazing location, amazing host our king of Auto Car world RORY , keep up the good work guys!

I've seen several excellent reviews of the DB12 now, all shot beautifully, but this one is the best in terms of info and highlighting the key points. No mucking about, just data and an honest empirical perspective. Plus, it's the only review with a glimpse of the rear seats. Great job!

Another great review. I feel since leaving Top Gear Rory has been able to express himself properly, and he has matured in a fantastic car journalist in my humble opinion. Great work, keep it up.

The beauty of the scenery and camera work, the stunning car and a top tier reviewer doing what he does best. All this adds up to a wonderful video that's worth every minute.

Rory - this might be the best car review video I've ever seen. Brilliant work, keep it up. So many facts and technical specs delivered with a love of cars.

Keep up the great work! Excellent review... watching from Trinidad and Tobago!

The camera guy doing outside shots is really good

Car companies should hire Rory as a consultant to help them build even better cars. This guy knows what he is talking about.

This is a beautiful machine. Mr Reid always does a stellar job as always

You are by far the best reviewer out there. I'm off to see the unveiling of the DB12 here in Dallas tomorrow and now I am fully educated! Thank you sir.

I didn’t even watch the video yet and already gave it a thumbs up! It’s Rory and a cool car! That’s all i need! 🤘🤝

I always want to see an Aston that delivers, and this time they seem to have done it. Thanks for this engaging and entertaining review Rory.

Great presentation, Rory! You're rather good at this...

New DB12 i first watched the Hagerty video. And 2nd i'm watching the Auto Trader video. Wow Auto Trader - you giving me 80% more info, covering so many things the Hagerty video did not mention. This is THE DB12 video to watch. Thank you for all the effort.

Aston Martin really are at the top of their game at the moment. Every car they've churned out in the last couple of years is simply brilliant. And from a wider British perspective, British marques are really producing some belters at the moment.

There are a number of reports on the DB12 now the journalist have got their hands on it, this is the best. Great report and amazing car. AM have really moved their game on with this car, maybe there is hope for the future after all.

Another great review Rory. Livin' the lush life.😎

These videos are like top gear videos so well put together,no wonder there ain’t any more car review shows on terrestrial tv

Watched your first time today. Must say, probably the best car reviewer out there. You are the mkbhd of Car reviews :)

This is a beautiful Aston Martin. Rory's review is spot on as always.

Great video as always Rory, I totally agree on the air vents and buttons for the heated seats, hate those touch sensitive buttons, I do disagree about the paddle location though, I’d say they’re better attached to the wheel so you don’t have to take your hands off the wheel while driving vigorously to change gear. It’s strange when I first saw the silhouette of the DB12 I thought it looked like the demon love child of a Jag and a modern mustang, looks far elegant in the flesh.

Finally, now I can buy an Aston, if I had the money. That dash has caught up with the times

That looks of the car and heaven like place.. and those close up, wide, drone shots combined.. I was in a dream..❤

The new DB12 is stunning...I really like it. Nice vid too.

It's the Aston Martin I've always wanted them to make. It's perfection.

Please keep letting this guy review!!! He truly is amazing and illustrates exceptionally well. I love his reviews.

Production looks phenomenal as always brother

quality review as usual thank you

I would very much like to see Rory reviewing the Aston Martin Vulcan, honestly. To me the very best car to come off Aston Martin on this century.

I get to see it every day. Aston is testing it along with some DBXs, where i live. It is gorgeous.

Rory, you've got what I call a dream job, mate. And you're quite great at it. Although this DB12 is one of the most beautiful cars I've ever laid my eyes on but I feel it looks like what a DB11 707 would've looked like if it existed. Kinda like what AM did with the interiors of DB11 & DBS Superleggera. But the interior is quite a big step for AM. I'm sure most of AM's fans were slightly put off by their interiors but this one --- they really went to town 👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾 I almost ordered this car until I noticed there's only one cup holder for the front occupants. Well, I'll stick to my 20 y/o Opel Astra then 😀

That was a stunning presentation. Absolutely fitting for a Bond car, love it!

High quality videos and effort doesn’t go unnoticed 🔥

Great review Rory and nice to swap British weather for the SoF and a the high life.

I’m a huge Aston fan and I love this, I just wish they had done a bit more to the rear end to differentiate it from the DB11. It’s not ugly it’s just not quite different enough. Anyway, probably nitpicking, I’d definitely upgrade from my Vantage to this, stunning car and all the reasons I wouldn’t have bought a DB11 are now resolved.

This, this is the definition of a beautiful, amazing, and lethal car. Wow. That's what Aston Martin does. Dream brand, dream car. Ever since I was little, I've wanted an Aston Martin, and with each new one, that doesn't change. I'm not really into "supercars" and 800, 900, 1000 horsepower cars. This is more my love in cars. I wouldn't buy a Lambo, or a ferrari, but I'd buy an Aston without a second guess. Or a Maserati, Bentley, Lexus. Maybe cars like the Honda NSX, or Audi R8, but that's about it when it comes to the low to ground, supercar esque. Other than that I'd be more inclined to buy a Hyundai I30N, or a Ford Focus ST, even an Abarth, or a luxury SUV with higher horsepower, to go with the Aston, or Maserati, haha.

Looks like a cross between the DB11 and the old DB9. Which is no bad thing. They probably realised their newer design language wasn't really working out for most of the audience.
