The DB11 AMR Might Be the Best-Looking Aston Martin in a While

While Aston Martin is no stranger to good-looking cars, sometimes they manage to put all the right ingredients together to make something truly special. Think of cars like the DBS V12 from ten years ago, the DB7 GT before it, or the Oscar India Vantage before then. While the regular DB11 is a beautiful car in its own right, the new DB11 AMR adds the right stuff and makes it perfect.

Something about the black wheels and the green accenting just makes this design pop. It goes from being just beautiful to being sinister and sexy, which is what I like in an Aston Martin. It reminds me of the aforementioned DBS and the Vanquish S, two of my favorite Astons of all time.

While I may not be an Aston Martin customer (or anywhere near it), if I was, I think this would be the one I’d get.

The AMR doesn’t have the screamer face like the Zagato. That makes it 1000x better by default.

This is the first DB11 that’s made me say “ooo” though I’m going to reserve judgement until it’s revealed in BRG.

The floating c pillar thing is just... no. Not elegant. Vanquish S is peak Aston Martin.

I prefer the Superleggera

If not for that big gaping maw, I’d agree.

The Vanquish always felt much too artsy in a way, it’s not really elegant in a way that an Aston should be.
