How would you rate the reliability of the new Aston Martin's?

[CdocZ]

I am talking about the DB9, and the Vanquish, no other models (variations of these two models are ok though).

Rate the average reliability of them, 1-10, 1 being worse then the old Jaguars, 10 being like some of those Honda's that never die. BUT rate the reliability compared to other supercars and GT's, not actually have a Civic as a 10. (I want to see how reliable they are compared to other supercars and GT's in reliability, but nothing else).

You can still edit it, and add a poll!

I haven't heard of any problems with them yet so I would say that the reliability is pretty good.

[CHEESE-TACULAR]

generally theyre good but i think the qualiy/reliabilty will go way down in the near future due to part sharing with ford, for right now i granted a 6

[Vindesh17]

i voted 7 cuz from what I can tell from going to autoshows and the dealerships its really good but only time will tell.

just a curiosity, how the hell would any of the members know how reliable the new astons are? as far as i know no one owns one...

any opinions are based on generally biased facts read or seen. what's the point of this thread?

perfect example of "bias"

WHY is it automatically lower reliability because it's Ford ?

[labomba]

Can I vote for pointless thread???

I've never even had a ride in an Aston or know of anyone who owns one. Sorry

[IBrake4Rainbows]

I would suggest that the reliability should be pretty good; it does have a German at the helm.

And even if it does go pop, at least it looks good on the side of the road

[Koenigsegg_CC]

I'd rate the DB9 at least 9 out of 10 from what has been said about it, but the Vanquish lets them both down a bit from its gearbox so I voted 7 overall.

IF and i say IF there is more parts sharing in the near future with ford i think aston will go down. i dont know how it is with you but i have very good reasons to despise a ford. around here japanese and europeans give you way better looks/quality/preformance/resale value.

and i love astons dont get me wrong, id hate to see tham go down-its already happening to Jaguar and i liked them too.

[labomba]

I think Ford have made some serious advances toward quality with the Parry-Jones (Great driving cars) era Ford models. ie. Focus and newer.
I don't know, maybe thats just the European Fords?

[CHEESE-TACULAR]

no its not, fords suck here too
