    Does anyone have any good pics of the gauge clusters in Aston Martin's? More specifically I am looking for the DB9 and AM V8.

    Thanks

    Thanks. Those have to be my favorite gauges of all time. Any pics of how they light up at night?

    go to ebaymotors.com Search under Aston Martin. You will find plenty of interior photos for the DB9 & AMV8. Here is one for the time being though

    If I had the money, I would buy an Aston for those gauges alone. Never mind the horsepower, sound, exterior looks, etc!

    They just show a true attention to detail. I thought the gauges in my Jag looked good till I saw these.

    I've never been a dash stroker, but sitting in the AMV8 at the DC Auto Show last year was an eye opener. The look and feel of the entire interior was superb. That was the first time I actually got a tingly feeling in the jiggly bits just from touching a radio dial. Wouldn't mind having one of those at all... Of course I could probably pick one up for 1/2 price in a few years with the way those things depreciate :)

    Just purchased an AMv8, the gauges do look soooo cool !

    YOu have to love them. Attention to detail is way beyond what Ferrari or Maserati does. (Porsche is not even close)

    Some of the best looking gauges in any car.

    Agreed, but could I ask just one thing? Does that counterclockwise tach mess you up shifting with just a tad of the backwards?

    Please tell me it doesn't say "Power Beauty" every time you start the car up.

    Now Chevy will borrow the idea for the Corvette and we'll have "Hung Virile" on the heads-up display on ignition...

    * Power, Beauty, Soul. For some reason, they missed the Soul part. I guess it hadn't lit up that last word just when they clicked the snapshot lol.

    I like how the 0-60mph is just a fraction of the gauge.
