Aston Martin DB11

2019 Aston Martin DB11 V8 Coupe Exterior

At first glance, it can be difficult to figure out why anyone would spend nearly a quarter of a million dollars or more for an Aston Martin DB11. After all, there plenty of high-end sports coupes that do the same job for less money. But once you've experienced the DB11, you begin to understand the Aston Martin mystique. (Driving it is the best way to go, but just sitting in it will do.) With its hand-tooled interior and carefully tuned driving experience, the DB11 rises to a level to which mass-produced high-end cars from Porsche and Mercedes can only aspire. And it certainly doesn't hurt that the Aston Martin brand is inextricably tied to Britain's most famous fictional spy. It's easy to see why this is the car 007 would use to escape the baddies, dispatch them to a fiery end, and whisk away the Bond Girl.
The DB11 is the most advanced Aston Martin to come along in quite a while, with all-new electronics, largely sourced from Mercedes, and futuristic styling that is as close to a departure from tradition as Aston Martin is likely to get. Nevertheless, it retains the air of old-world craftsmanship and old-money class that sets Aston Martin apart from ordinary cars. If you can afford the price of entry, the Aston Martin DB11 is a ride like no other.
