This is the most beautiful car I've seen in along time.
I’ll raise you the Nissan Micra CC
I can't think of any ugly sports/supercars released in the past few years. Maybe only the Utopia but that might be spec specific
yea, but now the new mercedes amg gt copied its bodywork,...
Let’s hope this is the car that finally gets Aston Martin back in the black. It should do. It looks stunning. Well done Aston.
Were they EVER in the black!
Best Gt on the market! More refined and comfortable than the Ferrari Roma more sporty than a Maserati Granturismo more exclusive than a Porsche 911! Dream car! Compliment to Aston Martin from an Italian cars lover! Well done! 👏🏼
It is beautiful as a German Car lover I must say
Stunningly beautiful
I still think the Roma looks beautiful personally. If not for the interior, I'd go with the Roma.
It's quicker as well...at breaking down!
Friend, you didn't say anything about Continental GT after all, he is his closest competitor
They knocked it out of the park with that design 😍
Your midlife comment is applicable to Ferrari Porsche Lamborghini 8 series BMW I think the sheer class of Aston compliments a handmade suit, the south of France, Vacheron Constantin Watch...so with correct Public School accent you can avoid the trying to hard vibe..I think think
@@alanwayte432🤡
@@alanwayte432what do you know about him and his life? It’s pretty pathetic and low of you to make assumptions like that
One of the best if not the Best looking roofless car in this modern era. Thank you AM
don't usually give a second look to convertibles, but wow. aston martin have done it. flawless design.
Looks happy too.
Funny, I live in the south. I don't consider any sports car that has more than 2 seats and isn't a convertible.
@@aclosson8193 I'm from the south, still don't do convertibles. more crap that breaks and leaks. and they're less rigid, heavier, etc. I get it as a second or third car or a rental but wouldn't be my go to.
4:00 it's how you use those millimetres!😂
I was thinking that comment was something that the owner of this car was told by his 2nd trophy wife...
Having owned a 16 plate Vantage, I could not get on with Interior of new Vantage and DB11 but this knocks it out of the park, not as brash as Ferrari or as new money of a Bentley..it just says class and I don’t need to try to hard..epic Aston ❤❤oh and great review
She's gorgeous and the presenter ain't half bad either.(sorry, couldn't resist).
Wasn’t sure about the colour at the beginning. But, by the end of the video it has grown on me. I like it.
This DB12 volante look's glorious in brown to me. I actually prefer the looks of Volante with the roof up than the Coupe. The rear deck sits better as a convertible. What with the fabulous new interior and Supercar performance , I'll defo take this over a Conti GT or Roma.......Excellent job Aston Martin
I love the roof works so much. Also I didn’t realize the wind situation in the car until alex mentioned it. That’s so cool.
This is the best looking GT ever made IMO. And this time they fixed the interior too.
I am buying one of these ,as soon as I cash in my lottery ticket
Very, very nice shape. Very good looking. Car also looks great.
That rootbeer-like color/coulor is glorious. Now, how come my bank account is pathetic?
It's 'Magnetic Bronze'....absolutely outstanding...
Looks like a great car. I'm sorry but this review consistently loves every car. She comes off as more of a brand ambassador in her reviews than a journalist.
Masterpiece. And very good video too🎉
excellent review
~ Beautifully done!
Wow! This is the best review colour I've seen
Magnetic bronze...
I'd be riding along with Anthony Joshua as a passenger for that orchestra at the back alone.
Stunningly beautiful car. If I had the money I’d buy one in a heartbeat. Love it ❤
Nice presentation, Legouix. What's d color code name of the exterior?
Yes, as others have said, this is simply tastefully stunning.
Great convertible, good review from the owner, greetings from Poland
Great video! I only missed the not so good stuff that every car has
It looks beautiful 😮💨
Love it. Stunning car, just need that lottery win now 😅, and a great review too 👍🏻
This is the best Aston Martin for a very long time.Well done .
Thanks for a great review plus on a great car. I'll buy 1 now if I had the money. Forget about electric cars for sure. 😛☘️
looks amazing. The color, icing on a cake. 🥶
My new dream car that'll only ever be in my dreams.
Don't know why they choose bronze, I mean brown as the press car color. This thing will look absolutely gorgeous in british racing green and cream interior
100%! The color on this is just. Idk why but extremely off putting. Just looks wrong
4:00 Good on Alex for calling them out for lying about inches
Could they use part of the centre console structure as a spine to strengthen the chassis. Does look quite mean 😡 from the front.
That colour is stunning
Best looking Aston since DB5 imho - love the colour 👍
You are the Best 🏎
Aston is the only super car manufacturer that's making genuinely good looking cars. As soon as you look at it, you're like wow that's a gorgeous car.
THIS IS GORGEOUS.
So beautiful i love the green DB12👌🏻
Great car, and love the colour too!
Reminds me of the James Bond Disco Volante of the 60's with that name only modern and a car instead of a boat !
Beautiful rear end
Love the colour and spec.
Lovely colours🔥
Very interesting review, they've never quite looked like my type of car, but this does... if I win the lotto
This car is absolute beauty. 😍😍😍😍😍
The Thunder⚡@10:53 tears of joy😪😪
Elegant and very beautiful. 😍
Gorgeous
Beautiful My order is going in but still keeping the the 911
If it had a V12, it would probably be my most desired new car right now. But even with the V8, it's absolutely awesome. Me wanty.
I’m in love with this DB12 convertible need one in my life who needs a Ferrari Roma decisions decision’s
Real Aston Martin. Look great and I will have it in my garage. Any candidate that would buy one for me 😊
Beautiful looking car.
9:58 in this instance, is “bandwidth” a technical term or figurative language?
Absolutely Love this ride can’t wait t win the lottery to place my order❤😊
Beutiful car❤🎉
Well done AM.
Wow that’s gorgeous
Love the root beer color 🖤🏁😎
Those rear wheel arches 😍😘
Oh that colour ❤❤
Hmmm, one Volante or four Cybersters. That needs some thinking about!
If you can paint a car brown and it still looks amazing…. It’s a winner!!
It looks remarkable
Very nice colour.
beautiful car!!!
oh, the lid is indeed almost up !
Finally the whole package. 🥰
Style on wheels 😊
Surprised to see how nicely done the interior is. Many past Astons were pretty messy. This one's beautiful.
It’s a stunning looking car.
This is what Aston should be a proper continental destroyer in cupe or this beautiful convertible version. You can see that Alonso is at Aston Martin ;) DB12 is just perfect :)
Everything about this looks better than the DB11, just beautiful.
Beautiful automobile nice color AMG engine & transmission
It's beautiful 😍😮
It’s simply gorgeous..
10:18 'Potholes ?' These don't exist here, all roads smooth like a racing track, well almost :) Road damage has been outlawed in the Netherlands. And on a Sunday evening, you can easily do 300+ on the A18, that is when the police isn't looking of course. Not that I ever did 300 anywhere, I don't have a DB12
DB12 Green 😊
Done a great job…but I need Rory on this
I live in Canada. Too bad it's not 4WD. Larry Stroll, you're Canadian. How did you let that happen? Gonna have to go AMG just because of that.
Thought the DBS was the best looking car ever, but this DB12 has to be the new King. Just wish it had an Aston V12….instead of AMG v8 😮
Fits good to drive to a Posh hotel or stores. I would use this than Roma
will the next bond drive this?
It is so beautiful 😭😭😭
Her hair wasnt moving at all. Thats pretty cool
this is gorgeous.
The car is hot, but man I couldn't stop looking at her! Perfection both of them!
Looks and sounds very expensive and exclusive but if you have the finance worth it, especially compared to the supposed rivals. The interior alone is worthy of an award. Pity they have to stay with turbos but nothing is perfect.
This is so achingly beautiful, top up or down, it is a work of art! 🤎
Geez the bronze is a beautiful colour. Lexus made a mistake with the copper crest.
Forget about it’s 0=60 this is the car you want to be seen in and how it must make anyone feel who can afford it
It's stunning, but I don't know if I could choose those amazing looks (and rarity) over a more "boring" SL ePerf at similar pricing. Both are way more enticing than a Porsche to me, though.
It's a beauty. I prefer the coupe though.
Amazing

Quite like that one 🙂
