I vote blue as well. It will look good against the silver. Black is second choice. I'm a convertible lover so any Aston I would buy would need to be a convertible. The same applies to a Bentley. Nice POV video. Still takes some getting used to the anti-clockwise movement of the rev counter. I understand he's making a video but he broke the rule of driving a convertible with the top down and windows up. 
That seems to be the consensus, and I thank you all for confirming my first choice....

It's not something that will happen immediately.... However, It's planned for the near future...In the meantime, besides resorting to having the red calipers stripped and repainted blue. I'm trying to source a used set of DB9 calipers that are scratched up or in need of paint as an alternative option with powder coating....
Still waiting on my new key fob from Phoenix bespoke keys in the United Kingdom.... You want to talk about financial rape, wow.... Welcome to Aston Martin.... However, they do offer other brand key replacements... Great service and great staff, however the sky is the limit on what you want to spend on making your keys and accessories like jewelry.... Sorry but, this is one area, I'm perfectly satisfied with having OEM replacement with no bells or whistles, even if it is a Volvo product...My original (ONE) at the moment is still good after 19 years, so kudos to Volvo for supplying Aston Martin with a reliable product....
Until next time.... Thanks for following along!

My F430 key was $750 and then another $200 to programme it plus the trip to Palm Beach so I understand the Euro car key rape. Pay to play.
