Driving the Aston Martin DB11 - V12 Twin Turbo RWD GT (POV Binaural Audio)

[@icedreamer9629]

Thank you for recognising that an Aston Martin DB car is not a supercar and is not about going fast everywhere. You're absolutely right. These cars are about enjoying the whole experience of the drive, not JUST the driving bit, but the road, the scenery, the sky, and just knowing you're the best looking vehicle within 100 miles :)

[@wccrispy]

Let's be honest, probably within 1000 miles.

[@renownedfear187]

Exactly! Aston Martin is a touring car... LUXURY over speed & cornering.

[@Theplaided1s]

I live in Ohio so it'd probably 500 miles.

[@ChrisKim3310]

This definitely gives me LC500 vibes. A good sounding grand tourer, good looks, and a pretty interior? Wonderful!

[@spiritualjatt]

yeah good point. ive driven the LC and it seemed more touring and heavy compared to a sports car you can throw around.

[@RobySupercar]

It’s kind of a more expensive and faster and more beautiful LC500

[@quakerome4594]

I seen you this day! I was in the white Ford cargo van and I gave you a thumbs up cause I knew who you were and you waved back! Much respect .

[@quakerome4594]

[@TedwardDrives]

[@MukisaSS]

Gotta love the sound of a v12!

[@sunrider7956]

nah exhaust sound sucks for a v12. miles away from lambo and ferrari

[@sunrider7956]

inline 4 can have better sound than this car lmao

[@MukisaSS]

@@sunrider7956 Well that's your opinion and it's fine.

[@syedlifts23]

[@jortepap]

a custom X pipe exhaust will give you that higher pitched scream... pretty impressive for a turbocharged car.

[@andresgizmos1271]

14:08 you know a car is fast when you get that effect of traffic standing still around you while you are accelerating up to highway speed and beyond.

[@RyanRoadReaper]

Wow! Aston really outdid themselves with this interior. Reminds me a lot of the LC500, and that's a compliment.

[@WeBuild4Life]

Outdid themselves is a stretch with a tablet styled display IMO.

[@RyanRoadReaper]

@@WeBuild4Life that's the singular flaw I can see with the interior, and it's not like it's their fault since they're stuck using old MB infotainment systems.

[@Tritonal92]

LOL the interior in this has nothing on the LC500's. This just looks plain cheap and low quality.

[@rafiabiyyuanto6944]

@@Tritonal92 keyword: looks. It doesn't feel cheap and having driven both, I'd say the fit and leather quality is on par with the LC500

[@lightorchestrator]

I don't like the leather. Or at least the color of if. It's reflecting in the windshield obscuring visibility.

[@_luca308_]

We’ve got the V12 AMR in Arden Green. I am 1,75m “tall” and when I drive with both of my parents, I can actually just fit in the back ok. But that’s really the max size you should be. Glad you like it. I love this car so much.

I love Super GT’s that combine quasi-supercar design, cachet, heritage with legitimate handling for a luxury Gran Tourer. Examples include this DB11, Ferrari FF, GT4 Lusso, 812 Superfast, Bentley Continental GT Speed(luxury minded), Mercedes AMG GT-C and the ‘87 Lincoln Mark VII LSC (ok jk).

This car has the most refined V12 engine I have ever experienced and have heard. The transmission system and the engine communicate within themselves during driving so satisfactorily and give the most settled driving experience and pleasure you can ever have. If your style and idea is to be a proud owner of a V12 with British Leather Smell Luxury with a Brand Badge of acknowledgement, "DB11-V12" is the car for you Gentleman. Assalamu-Walikum. Have a great day everyone.

[@charlesvanderhoog7056]

I am a huge fan of Aston Martin. Somehow, though, I am looking at this vid with nostalgia for this massive V12 Twin Turbo engine in the front with 500 torque that has now been replaced in the Tesla S Plaid with three tiny electrical motors that produce 1033 HP and probably more than 1500 torque and also, and this is the bane of ICE engines, the same HP and torque at every speed, say at every rev. There is nothing under the hood of a well-designed EV and as technology advances, the size of the motors and batteries will shrink as well. In this vid, we are gawking and gazing upon the last of the beauties that England knew so well to produce.

[@grizzle273463]

That car is a PLEASURE TO THE EYES. However, with the tan leather dash, boy is there a lot of reflection on the windscreen.

[@Herbertponsoby]

all the fittings are Mercedes including the controls on the steering wheel, media controls, power button, ac vent, etc

[@larryboles629]

Love the DB 11 V-12 it is an amazing, fast, fun to drive epic british awesomeness! It is second to only the Bentley Continental GT Speed. The specs of these two or so close it is hard to call the fastest. The Bentley: 208 MPH Max Speed, 3.5 s 0-60 mph, 650 BHP Max Power, 663 foot lb. Max Torque, Gross weight 5,209 pounds. The Aston Martin: 208 MPH Max Speed, 3.4 s 0-60 mph, 630 BHP Max power, 516 foot lb Max Torque, Gross weight 4200 lbs. While the specs are the same, the driving experience could not be different. Kinda like you take the Aston on a date with that 23 year old honey, and pick up the mother-in-law with the Bentley.... Be happy, be safe.

Thanks for the very astute review of this very beautiful car.

[@lucasfirmin7680]

I know it is not the same, but when I had an 06 Vantage for two years. I always felt like I was in a fancy Mustang. It was a great car and I miss it but ended up going back to Porsche. There is just something about an Aston. Definitely not at the top of cars I've owned performance wise, but they just get under your skin in a good way. Get you an Aston. If you like the mustang you will LOVE any Aston.

[@edalder2000]

One of those tires probably cost more than my first car.

[@Mike-rk8px]

The twin turbo model starts at $250,000. Even if you could afford it, these cars have had lots of issues with starting (often not starting at all), the electrics are known to be typically English (very problematic), and it’s very easy to spin out the rear end, especially on wet roads. The cost of maintenance is extreme, and because these cars are overly complicated they’re often very difficult to fix correctly.

[@sdc8547]

The DB10 was a better looker. Seems crazy to me that it didn't go into full production. 😓

[@mommaduck79]

This is actually a pretty fucking nice car all by itself - but I just hope that the next DBS Superleggera is ACTUALLY 'superlight' (as the name superleggera suggests) this time. 1700KG max should be the goal. But otherwise, I'm genuinely impressed by this DB11.
