Aston Martin DB7 (1994-2004) Review

Category: Exotic Sports 3 out of 5

Summary of the Aston Martin DB7 (1994-2004)

Price Range: No data available

Assets

Looks, appealing cabin, Vantage's handling and engine, exclusivity.

Drawbacks

Manual transmission is clunky. Non-Vantage car's handling no match for rivals. Cramped for tall drivers.

Verdict

A lovely object, and a pretty fine car.

Review

Reliability and Quality3 out of 5

The DB7 began life with some quality glitches, but has been refined and improved since. Still not as consistently made as Jaguar, Mercedes or Porsche rivals, though, and reliability can suffer as a result.
