It's not just about speed. You can indeed make the M6 go faster (and with Dinan, it certainly wouldn't be cheap). But it'll still be modified, and to most people I suspect it will never look as good as the Aston. The crap on the hood is functional and is for cooling - there's a monster V12 shoehorned into in a space where a V8 used to be...

AMs do look sexy, but no less sexy that the M6, imho...and though the crap may be functional, it does take away from the overall sexyness

It is simply a gorgeous car, it's a shame it won't make it here to the states, but I wasn't buying one anyway!
I'll admire it every chance I get!
