Are you sure you want to dump a million on change on a hybrid car? I'm pretty sure these are gonna depreciate like nukes. They are not like the p1, and it's an Aston, so it's gonna break and be unreliable.

Your spec looks fine, but I'd suggest contacting your dealer. There are way more customization options available than what's just on the online configurator.

Personally, I'm considering if I want to spec a sf90xx.. I'm worried I'll be nuked from orbit on depreciation on that one too.
Dry carbon body does look great, with some bronze wheels and pinstriping it gives off some Pagani vibes.

And yes I'd love for the car to depreciate as little as possible, but I'm going into this purchase with the same mindset as previous ones, expect to never see that $ again.

They did say Q can pretty much do anything one can imagine, but that's a bit too much customization for my brain to handle. Just a few little personalization bits is all I really need.

And the SF90XX looks like a mega car. If you have the opportunity to spec one I'd definitely consider it if I were in your shoes. I know I'll never have the brand loyalty to be offered an allocation on any of their special cars.

Just my opinion. No, no and no on the East Side red miraging, or whatever it's called.
As a silver person, that'd be my looksie. Brightest they have? Lightning?

Good luck and grats. What a gorgeous car.
Except in that flu red.
Thank you! Aston has some of the best silvers imo. Lightning does seem to be the brightest, Aluminite looks really awesome as well. It seems to really accent the highlights and shadows.

I hear you on the Andromeda Red. It's so hard to convey through words or photos, but I felt the exact same way before seeing it live. I've always thought of Chromaflair paint as cheap, tacky, gaudy, but it gave the exact opposite impression. It really is one of those you have to see it to believe it...but ultimately I do want something a bit brighter.
