In the world, there are two types of Aston Martin owners: the diminishing group of gentlemen who like everything silver and the rappers/Russians/footballers. That's the way the world is and there's nothing we can do about it.
So what can we say about this next car? Well, it's definitely not a gentleman's car, since James Bond wold never drive one. But maybe Goldmember would, in between killing beautiful naked women by turning them into gold.
I guess what I'm trying to say is we should hold our noses and go past the initial outrage towards a gold Aston Martin. Forgiato Wheels' work with the car involved covering the Vanquish in fresh laminated vinyl.
Yellow on black is a transitional combination so stripes were painted on the hood and the windows of the car for maximum impact. Window tint, taillight tint and Forgiato GTR wheels with black dishes were installed.
Wondering who would ever buy a car like this? Artist Philthy Rich is the owner, and according to Forgiato this car is the embodiment of his "huge vision" for the Aston. We did a bit of digging and found Philthy featured the exact same car in one of his videos last year. The 31YO is from Oakland and began his music carrear in 2007. His first tour "Stan Bizzness BG's" was canceled after he was arrested selling cocaine, after which he was sentenced to a year in jail. Just goes to prove it takes a brave man to wrap a car in gold.

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
