I see where you are coming from. What you said about a copy after a copy may be true. Good observation. Either way, I still prefer an Aston. And St. Merc, get your CL, I will just pull up next to you and say hello and goodbye. Then and only then will you think, "Oh no. Maybe I shouldn've gotten the Aston. I am starting to like it."

hahahaha....I would, if I liked the new CL at all...

Re: Poll: CL 600 vs Aston Martin DB9

Impossible for me to make a choice, completely torn. A new gorgoeous CL and the car that I consider the best looking production car in the world today, the DB9. I can't decide!

Re: Poll: CL 600 vs Aston Martin DB9

I would take Bentley Conti GT over any of those but now that i have to choose between the two i will take CL because Aston Martins are just upmarket Fords and are based on the same platform with Ford Focus. j/k

Aston this time!

I'll probably choose CL when I see it in real life and in AMG version!

Re: Poll: CL 600 vs Aston Martin DB9

Yeah, the 599 does look good in silver.

What someone mentioned, that the Aston lacks originality, is kinda true. They need to expand their design language somewhat.

Nevertheless, in and of itself, the DB9 is a good looking car, and a bit better than the CL, still, IMO.

Re: Poll: CL 600 vs Aston Martin DB9

On looks alone the DB9 doesn't have a competitor here.


Not that I don't apreciate the CL, far from it (if only the had not used those hidious taillights).

Give me the CL600 (it would work well with the sport package against the DB9) more fresh and more sexy! The new CL might be the best new coupe in the world!

Re: Poll: CL 600 vs Aston Martin DB9

I actually chose the CL even though Im more acquainted with the looks on the DB9. I think the CL is a better car underneath and actually a better looking car especially once it gets treated with the AMG goodies. The DB9 is hot, but in all honesty I would choose the new CL instead because the truth is its probably a better made car thats faster as well. That Twin turbo v12 puts out a lot of power.

Re: Poll: CL 600 vs Aston Martin DB9

I just voted the Aston. I needed some time to look at the new MB and see if i like it or not. At last, i have to say that it is a nice car, i quite like it, but if it comes to this poll, i definitely choose the AM. It looks better, sportier, and more original to me.

Don`t get me wrong. I still like the Aston but the new CL just cuts it in half with modern sophication, and elegance.

Now, its going to be intresting to see how many MB fans are going to vote for A.M
I agree except for this.

There is the Z4 M Coupe, the only german car that can challenge the DB9 on design.

Now that would have been a more interesting poll.

Re: CL 600 vs Aston Martin DB9

The Aston without a doubt. Its design just pleases the eye in a way the CL is incapable of.
