Thankx for the pic..but not all are from Dubai ;)
That first one with the construction is in Deira...
That one with the fruits is in Dubai yes...in Bur Dubai
Then that one in the dock is in the Abra connecting from Deira to Bur Dubai
That one in the Petrol Pump is in Sharjah, not Dubai. I don't know which part of Sharjah though. I only know its in Sharjah because I stopped by that petrol station a loooong time ago
Those ones in the desert is definetly never Dubai. It's either Hatta, Fujaira or Liwa
And the last one in the third is again in Deira, near the Hamriya Market :)
Note: Deira and Bur Dubai are subsections of the city, not a city themselves.

The car isn't disguised.
Unless I'm mistaken I don't see tape anywhere on it.
The lights are just like the show car lights.

Nice little Aston. Saw it las year when they tested it at the Nordschleife/Nüburgring. The car sounds so nice and was louder then a Lamborghini Murcielago which was testing there, too!

from the automobile article it said the shreeking howl of the aston was louder on the test car than once it has gone through noise restrictions and emissions and whatnot. some aston person said, however, that the sound was a key peice of the package to the company and they would maintain its awessome sound.

wow that car is amazing at every angle, aston martin puts such quality into their cars. I got this brochure from a dealer and it said it can take 5 hrs to make 1 fender. (handmade of course)
nice photos

But A.M. is not very creative in its design anymore..........all the modern production models just look alike....just like all the Porsches :(
