Ezra Dyer is a Car and Driver senior editor and columnist. He's now based in North Carolina but still remembers how to turn right. He owns a 2009 GEM e4 and once drove 206 mph. Those facts are mutually exclusive.
From the November/December issue of Car and Driver.The 2025 Aston Martin Vantage and the 2024 Porsche 911 Turbo can feign normality.

Their doors open the normal way , and a valet won't have any problem figuring out how to put them in gear.
Less than exotic exterior styling, earns a gas-guzzler penalty, might be mistaken for a car costing half as much.VERDICT: One of the best performance cars you can buy, at any price.One logbook entry read, 'It's entertaining to watch people ignore the 911 to gawk at the Aston.'
