AM. The R8 is probably the better performer but come on, it's an Aston Martin

DB9 all the way. The R8 looks cool but outside of that I don't have any desire for it. I'd love to drive one but if it came down to ownership I would pick the DB9 everytime.

R8. The Audi is one of the best looking super cars on the market today. Also I think it is just slightly more special than the Aston.

Gotta say AM! There is nothing sexier than an AM than a Ford GT, but an Aston comes close! Though the R8 would be a car to drive on the track, thats all its good for. I think it looks like every Audi and an AM just does everything with subtle perfection.

DB9. DB9 is more than double 0 - seven 's sweet ride, whereas R8 makes me think of Stark and bunch other footballers crashes them.

DB9.

The R8 is an ugly, soulless hack of a sports car that has neither the chops of the more storied brands like Ferrari or Porsche but also lacks the plucky underdog status of cars like the Corvette.

Even a Viper would be a more respectable buy than an R8.

I'm not saying Audi has a slouch with the R8, but after I saw Aston Martins video on what their mechanics shops look like and how crazy they love Aston Martin and quality, I pick the DB9. But I am confused why there is a "EU" label.

DB9. I can't think of anything about the R8 that I prefer.
