Ever since I was little, I always wanted to be like James Bond; therefore, I thought the only close way I can achieve that is by buying my own Aston Martin. But all in all, it is such a beautiful car, an perfectly designed by professional car designers that really show their love to the car. It is such a great car for men to own and I would hope to won one when I am older so that I can make good impressions to others while still pretending to be James Bond!
