Manny Khoshbin had the privilege of getting behind the wheel of the Aston Martin DB12, a beast with a staggering 671 horsepower. Presented with the choice between a white or British racing green model, Manny wisely opted for the latter, and boy, was he excited to give it a go. The DB12 marks a significant milestone for Aston Martin, as it represents the brand's first foray into the new generation of sports cars, taking over from its predecessor, the DB11. This car is a whole new ballgame, with a complete overhaul of the interior and exterior design, enhanced driving dynamics, and a mechanical setup that sets it apart from the DB11. But what really caught Manny's attention were the specially developed Michelin Pilot Sport 5S tires, tailored specifically for the DB12. These babies are a crucial component of the car's performance. Now, let's talk about the differences between the available options. Both versions come with the carbon ceramic brake option, but the one Manny had his eyes on featured the lower body carbon fiber package, along with some snazzy 21-inch wheels. The color choices were equally impressive, with an iridescent Emerald and a neutron white on offer. The DB12 boasts an array of paint options and leather interiors to suit any discerning driver's taste. As Manny prepared to hit the road, he discovered that the car offered five different drive modes, including individual, wet, sports, and sport plus. The ability to switch seamlessly between these modes, even on the fly, was a delightful surprise. Of course, Manny couldn't resist teasing the Aston Martin team about a potential track version, but alas, they had to make do with the Sport Plus mode. And let's not forget about the stunning visual changes that occur when switching to this mode, with the lighting turning red and the exhaust note becoming more pronounced. Manny couldn't help but reminisce about his previous encounter with the Aston Martin DBX707, a car that nearly convinced him to make a purchase. But now, it was time to focus on the DB12. With a quick warm-up lap to get his bearings, Manny was already feeling the adrenaline pumping through his veins. The upgrade in design was impressive, but what truly blew him away was the technological advancements, particularly in the braking and suspension departments. The DB12 delivered a truly exhilarating experience. But Manny's curiosity didn't stop there. He wanted to see how the DB12 fared as a daily driver, so he switched to comfort and GT modes. Instantly, the exhaust note softened, and the suspension adjusted to provide a more comfortable ride. It was like driving a completely different car. The DB12 proved to be versatile, allowing Manny to handle business calls, scratch an itch, or simply enjoy a leisurely cruise on the freeway. And when the need for speed arose, he could effortlessly switch back to Sport Plus mode and let the car unleash its full potential. The sound of the exhaust alone was enough to send shivers down his spine. With a price tag of around $250,000 before options, the DB12 is undoubtedly a luxury investment. Manny couldn't help but imagine owning one himself, envisioning an all-white exterior paired with a pristine white interior. The Aston Martin DB12 left an indelible impression on Manny, showcasing Aston Martin's commitment to pushing boundaries and delivering an extraordinary driving experience.
