Power, Beauty, and Soul: A Taste of Aston Martin


There’s an air of mystery and intrigue with Aston Martin. While everyone grew up on a steady stable of Italian and German high-performance machinery, this British supercar brand has become iconic because of the silver screen. Tied synonymously with super spy James Bond, Filipinos have seen it being driven to exotic locations and saving the world countless times for over 30 years.

Among all the cars the revitalized Nissan has brought to market so far, this is the one that’s nailed it dead on.

Photos by Ulysses Ang
Sounds of children’s laughter greeted us as we approached the Toyota Automobile Museum in Nagoya.
