good thing you live in the US - over here you would be stoned by your clients if you asked them what 200K car you should buy ;)

**Brandon99** · 08-21-2008, 01:57 PM

Here's my vote!

I really love the look of the DB9. I just wish it had back seats big enough to hold someone over 5 years old. Any other car you recommend?

Many of my clients drive similar cars... I have to treat myself once in awhile.

sure, for me its perfectly fine - but my tax accountant was hiding his Porsche from his clients for nearly a year. it's good that it isn't that way everywhere ;)

**MOxxx** · 08-21-2008, 02:12 PM

About 20 of these: 1 for you and 19 for your clients.

way cooler than a DB9

The only way to travel.

Good choice Mitch.

**CyberAgeGary** · 08-21-2008, 02:37 PM

Db9 is a great car. I have had the chance to drive it, and it's amazing.

**Fresh** · 08-21-2008, 02:43 PM

no DB9! Yes DBS!

**Jman** · 08-21-2008, 03:07 PM

If you really want to turn heads go with the RR Conquistador

**tony286** · 08-21-2008, 03:30 PM

Save your money so if the bottom falls out so your family can eat. Some of the richest men in the world drive old cars not worth much.

An S65 would definitely seat enough people, that thing is huge

and fast as shit! my friend has one, its crazy with 4 huge guys in a car that goes that fast. i want one, but i dont have an extra $180k laying around

ive been looking at an used S63 but not a lot out there

**FrankWhite** · 08-21-2008, 04:07 PM

**tony286** · 08-21-2008, 04:10 PM

I got to tell you I worked for rolls royce. A beautiful car but not the most reliable, getting parts can be a nightmare. Also plan on getting fucked very hard on service costs. I worked for them in the 90's a major service was 5 grand.

Go for it Mitch, you cant take it with you

Love the DB9 but I guess you would find the Bentley more comfortable, You can probably find one that's a year old or a demo, where the bite's been taken out of the price

**Spunky** · 08-21-2008, 04:14 PM

Sweet looking rides..chicks dig convertables

Honda Accord... 07... anything more is hubris.

**shwsrvcs** · 08-21-2008, 04:18 PM

actually if I lied.. I would go with the Bentley.

SO HOT!

**DatingGold** · 08-21-2008, 05:16 PM

if you get a convertible DB9 I will be impressed.

**BucksMania** · 08-21-2008, 05:26 PM

get X6 while its still hot

**MJ_AVN** · 08-21-2008, 07:43 PM

Mitch, cmon dude, if you're not driving an '89 Firebird with the t-tops off and some Warrant blasting on the stereo you ain't got nothing!

Hi,

What are your opinions and experiences? I am trying to keep it under $200k.

Go new or a year or two older? Anybody on here own any of these cars?

Thanks, Mitch

What he said.

**MJ_AVN** · 08-21-2008, 07:47 PM

Wait, I take that back - an 83 Firebird, with some Motley Crue blasting on the stereo

**Thurbs** · 08-21-2008, 07:49 PM

db9 is the better choice i'd say .. but id say ud be more pimpin in the classic db6 ;)

**Semi-Retired-Dave** · 08-21-2008, 08:53 PM

DB9 is a great ride and when the top is down, its got great lines.
One of the best cars I have ever owned and actually shows some class because you don't see that many on the road.

**fuzebox** · 08-21-2008, 08:57 PM

The Bentley is such a poser car, the Aston Martin is 10x the machine. Why the DB9 though? The flagships are the DB12 and DBS

I'd say Mitch has been pretty conservative compared to his competitors who have magazine spreads devoted to their private jets and Bentley fleets...

**Adam_M** · 08-21-2008, 09:02 PM

If you do go for an Aston Martin I would shoot for the Vantage.

I live decently but certainly do not overdo it for most things.

Tesla Roadster, dude.

The Vantage is 8 cylinder, right? Why that over a DB9?

Mercedes has been putting out some very nice looking cars but they are very unreliable. Shahan's dropped a transmission the day after he got it and I know a lady who was part of a lemon law class action suit against them and I was told there a more claims against MB than any other manufacturer.

**Nickatilynx** · 08-21-2008, 09:21 PM

The Aston is a great car but driving a Bentley is , well , special

Try both and see.

I will certainly test drive both... any others I should consider that you know of?

200k could get you a top notch Classic car....just a thought.
