The slate walkways, frosted glass facade and brushed metal framework of the new Cooper Square Hotel set the ideal modernist backdrop to display this slew of shiny new Aston Martins. The crowd was chic, the Martinis flowed and James Bond references were in full effect. The only thing missing was half of this DB9 Volante’s bodywork. Aston brought the cross sectioned drop top to Manhattan to give attendees a closer look during this uber exclusive owners event.
Great spot, I will go check that out later today!
An absolutely gorgeous automobile. Does it get any better?
Was told by a friend who worked on building this project that Aston Martin requested that a vehicle be craned up to the penthouse space for this event. Could you imagine that car up this high?!

That would be a nice little surprise in your hotel suite….a stocked mini-fridge…an excessive amount of plasma screens…and of course a brand new Aston DBs…
I knew they build these cars in chunks like that top photo shows. I own a model car replica of one of these. I wish I could peel the side off like that to look inside the hood. Lovely car and great photos. These Aston Martin cars just look so, “Metallic”. Very sturdy looking pieces of machinery.
Thanks
