He didnt do anything regarding any AM design, excpet a little on the Zagato. His first real "soup to nuts" design will be coming.

he did design the Z8 pretty much on his own- on his own time even. they were foolish to let him go.
Oh that's right! DUH! He's Danish!

I remember my friend from Switzerland was saying he had a Danish accent when we spoke to him.

Yes and that soup to nuts design that is coming is obviously the DB8, and worth waiting for!

Hi everyone
Thanks.
Klint:
I'll get the info on the Engine Upgrades.

A_Train:
For sure I want audible sound from the exhausts but not as far as my Kelleners with X-Pipe Supersprint. Big bore tailpipe will installed with the sport exhausts. Grill mesh I don't know how it looks like on black, I'll want to see some pics first. The silver grill stripes are beautiful as they are.

CM5GO:
I've sent pics to MEnthusiast and you in email. He will post the pics for me. Thanks ME.

Good luck with the DB7. Only last week did I also start looking into this same car. I tried to test drive one on Friday, but the salesman was off. I did test drive a XKR and the engine was the only good thing. This one didn't have the Brembo brakes, which I'm sure are better. The DB7 and XKR coupes are 2 of the best looking cars on the road.
