The V12 is certainly a machine and I can see the appeal. Balance is off though. The last iteration of the V8 is king for me. Nothing sounds like a V8 and the chassis balance is spectacular. Yes the Aston has longer gearing compared to the CS but when you hit the high revs it presses all the buttons. It's bloody quick. Not as insane as the CS but it delivers. You also never feel the weight on the front wheels like CS and V12. It's joyous. CS is probably faster point to point. I have no idea which I love more. Just happy I have them both.
