    Default DBS vs R8 V10

    Hello folks!

    New member here - just inquiring opinions. I own an Audi R8 V10 2011 since January of this year, but have always been interested in an Aston Martin DBS. Anyone own or driven both cars can share your experiences? Pros and cons of each?

    Thanks for any insight.

    R8's looking good! DBS vs. R8 V10 is definitely a tough choice, I think the DBS sound is enough for me though.

    2 great cars, but drive very different. For me:

    RWD > AWD for my fun car.

    hate to say it but the R8 doesn't have the "passion" DBS does. It's hard to explain but hearing an AM's V12 in person gives me the piss shivers.


    Some say he never blinks, and that he roams around the woods at night foraging for wolves...

    I would have to say DBS. It is one of the most beautiful cars in the world and nothing else really comes close to it. I feel that the R8 is a more serious car while the DBS is a car that is purely sex on wheels.
