Plus they are just damn sexy, and not too many people do leather and

CG, Nigel and Bud (locally in DC) have had their DB9s for over a year. Besides some persistent problems with their Linn audio system (inferior amp design), the cars have been good. I believe the only other issue has been with a faulty O2 sensor design that was subsequently updated since.
A lot of the electronics are Ford sourced, which is not confidence inspiring. But in 2006, that level is easily the equal of the other major Euro manufacturers. So, you can't do much better.
The drive in the DB9 is pretty amazing considering the size of the car. And AM is one of the few manufacturers that offer a V12 with a 6spd and completely defeatable driver aids. That is a very refreshing and attractive feature to me.
