I gotta agree with you. I think this thing is cool as hell for what it is.. a GT car. It’s really beautiful and exotic, and it sounds amazing. Yes, the interior tech looks out dated, but it’s still nice... it kinda has a retro-ish feel to the interior. I don’t know if I would pay $140-150k for one, but the prices you can get these with really low miles is insane.

Exactly. I drove an Aston Martin 4.3 V8 Vantage for a weekend nearly a decade ago and it was plenty quick enough for UK roads. 0-60 mph in 5 seconds, 0-100 mph in 11.5 seconds is all the performance you really need .It was amazing to drive. Communicative steering, gorgeous sound, great gear change and looks to die for. People are obsessed with 0-60, 1/4 mile times and the cars are so fast now that they're barely usable on the public road. Was a passenger in a 720S a couple of years ago and that thing was just too fast to use properly on the public road. Put your foot down for 5 seconds from 30 mph and you're deep into ban territory. Put your foot down for 10 seconds from 30 mph and you'll probably be sent to prison as you'll be doing over 150 mph. 720S is largely pointless in the UK.

My friends Ferrari is much faster and responsive, yet it’s not very comfortable on a trip and isn’t a good daily drive. You have to really really be in the mood for serious sport. Yes, there are many other sedans with better tech and interior designs, but none with the same beautiful lines and Ferrari built engines. That’s the issue. People that don’t drive these make assumptions. The experience is hard to explain, and you have to feel it. I can’t tell you the sheer joy I have in sport mode/manual, and when the wife and family want a quiet and comfortable trip I can offer that as well. It feels like such an amazing blend of luxury and sport all in the same car. Unique and so under appreciated. Magnificent cars.
