 Classic Aston Martins Holding Their Appeal - New York Times
Just as Fender Stratocasters and Telecasters made before the company’s takeover by CBS are the only instruments that matter for collectors, most of the collecting activity in Aston Martins is with cars produced during the marque’s golden era of 1947 to 1972, when it was owned by David Brown, a British industrialist.
The DB4 and DB5 of 1958-65 are generally considered the apex of the David Brown era (he’s the DB in the model names) and are among the loveliest front-engine grand touring cars ever produced.
Although top racing success eluded it, the GT Zagato is regarded by collectors as one of the most charismatic and sexy sports cars of the ’60s — its curves and bulges should carry a parental advisory.
