Is the DB11 only a fancy Mercedes or a true Aston Martin?

Question

Pramod · Accepted Answer

It’s 100% Aston as an owner. It just makes it more reliable with the AMG heart.

Lokesh · Answer

Nah, it's a sellout. Everything on a real Aston is bespoke, not parts bin specials.

Shinde · Answer

It's a necessary evolution. This was what Aston needed to live, to compete.

Vibhu · Answer

It is the most Aston of Astons. The Mercedes bits are just the reliable foundation upon which the Mercedes bits are built.

Chandan · Answer

I have driven them both and the DB11 feels nothing like a Mercedes. It's all Aston charm.

Saket · Answer

This is a hybrid approach that works. British style with German engineering. Win-win.

Rahul · Answer

Mercedes is the brain, Aston is the soul. If you ask me, it’s best of both worlds.

Sucheta · Answer

Real Aston fans understand the progress that has been made. That special something is still there.

Kanishk · Answer

The old quirky Astons are missed. This is too polished and mainstream feeling.
