I love Aston Martin and the DB9 is definitely one of my favorites. The look is just stunning from every angle. It also has just enough power to be lots of fun, but not too much to get into trouble with. I decided to make it a drift tune to add some class to the usual Toyotas and Nissans of the online lobbies. Also, I panted mine in black chrome with dark wheels and a carbon fibre hood/spoiler. It looks amazing drifting around a track. I could watch the replays forever. However, I also really like the way this car drifts. It isn’t the best drift car ever, but it doesn’t take that much effort to start and hold a drift. I could drift every corner very easily and the way the transmission is set up you can drift really long tracks at high speeds. On Tsukuba, the highest gear I went up to was only 4th. Really liking everything about this car, but I did find it interesting that it ended up having less power than the smaller V12 Vantage with a tiny bit more weight.
