F355 v DBS v SL55 v RS5

I think I calulated it correctly, 1833HP tucked away for the Winter. Battery tenders in place, covers are on, garage heaters on. See you in the Spring. Wonder which keys I will grab first...

Nice collection! I was thinking about an RS5 before picking up another F355.

 

I like the dbs combo with the 355.

Nice.

What year is your SL55?

 

Niiiiiiiice!

 

And the perfect color and body style of f355! Gorgeous lineup. 👍

 

Thanks all. SL55 is 2006, amazing torque from the supercharged AMG motor. RS5 Cab is 2014 and frankly could do with some of that torque but makes up for it with a stunning gearbox, great DD choice. DBS is the most powerful of the group, V12 6-speed manual and wonderful GT. F355 1996 Spider 6-speed... well, you all know about that one.

 

Nice stable!

 

Not a bad set of choices you have to make every morning! Amazing collection!

 

I agree-the 355 and DBS are a pretty sharp combo. Looks like you really enjoy convertibles!

 

I agree. The torque is amazing. I have a 2008 SL55. 510HP/530 ft. lbs of torque. It is a great car, the only thing it is heavy.

 

What year is your 355? How long have you had it, etc?

 

Jim, You are right the SL55 carries a few extra pounds, still it's the wolf in sheep's clothing of the group. You can cruise to the local shops without a second glance, but you'd have to be in exactly the right gear with these other vehicles to stay with it's mid range acceleration.

Bob, I've only had the 355 since July, it's a '96 (5.2) and has the most amazing sound via hyperflow cats and MS racing exhaust. The car is in perfect shape, 17K miles on it. A short tenure but have very much enjoyed driving it. Started looking for a 360 but fell in love with this.

The Aston Martin DBS is the "Casino Royale" Denver motor show car from 2009.

Looking for a 550 to add in the New Year.

 

Nice! One for every occasion

 

Here's one more pic for you... enjoy the holiday season and have a great New Year all.

Fabulous taste in cars. Best wishes

 

I would move before I had to park those babies away for the season.

 

Personally wouldn't go for the SL55.
Love the DBS&355 though.

Regarding the RS5, probably would stick to a C63 Coupe, with the pano sunroof. Much more fun. Or a M3 Conv.

Congrats!!!

 

Agreed. Nice collection of cars. Happy holidays.

 

that's throwing humble out the window...or even off the cliff.

nice collection none the less...DB looks the best hands down and I've loved the 355 since It first debuted.

 

Niceee toys

 

Looks like you must be over on the west side of town at the car condos? Are you at or near the Cars and Coffee location?

 

Cool ..............

 

Yes, West side of town on Lake Minnetonka. We took the Aston out to the local C&C a couple of times a few years back, fun event and recommended to all - must go back one day.

Just added this to the mini collection. Last of the air cooled 911 Carreras (993 Varioram if that matters to folk). Drove it back from Canada and had a blast.

Really want to add a no stories 550 Maranello Silver/Bordeaux if I can find a good one. I think I must be in to those colors right now...
