Gold Medalist, Evan Lysacek, Eyeing Up An Aston Martin DBS: Would This Be YOUR Pick?

Edmunds' Inside Line reports:

VANCOUVER, British Columbia — Olympic Games gold medalist Evan Lysacek, who took the top prize for the U.S. in men's figure skating last Thursday, says he will treat himself to an Aston Martin DBS. The skater reportedly owns a Range Rover but says he now wants the DBS "just like Bond."

Lysacek was quoted by Yahoo! Sports on Monday saying he'll buy the $269,000 sports car in Los Angeles soon after the end of the Olympic Games. Yahoo! Sports quoted Aston Martin Newport Beach salesman Gary Briggs, predictably, as saying the DBS is "very much the gentleman's sports car...a fine choice for an Olympic champion."

Figure skaters may not seem much like sports-car types...

What does this have to do with the Aston or the Olympic athletes?

And AutoSpies.com readers...did you hear there is a recall on Toyotas?

LOLOL.

I sure hope everyone is as sick as we are of that story.

See how many stories we've already done on it

The most overhyped story in history in our opinions.

And now let's have a vote...

Who wants MORE coverage on the Toyota recalls or LESS?

1UAW...You're about to get smashed here

well... you really haven't covered the steering issues that are being found in Corolla's. Or do you only cover them after governments have forced recalls?

I would rather have a Maserati Gran Turismo S automatic coupe as my grand touring car, save the 50 grand and pay my taxes with it! lol
