FAST AND FLAMBOYANT

Back in May, Aston Martin revealed the DB12 to the world and now it’s here in India at a starting price of ₹ 4.59 crore, ex-showroom before you go through the options list. This price tag could very well be equivalent to purchasing a 2,000 square feet plus 4 BHK apartment in Bandra. However, as a wise man once said, you can sleep in a car but you can’t drive a house, we know which one we would buy. Aston Martin prefers to call the DB12 a Super Tourer, indicating supercar performance from a Grand Tourer. It is wider and longer than the DB11, with a larger grille, and new lighting signature for the headlamps. Even the rear-view mirrors are smaller.
