However, an Aston should not be a bright electric blue colour! This drastically decreases the suave and class-factor
I disagree. The metalic metal colours have got a bit boring now. Like the Mercedes colour pallet of white or black or any shade of grey in the middle. Paining it in a bright colour is a great way of smacking you in the face and making you notice it.
And Aston's design department certainly need to do something to make it stand out from other Aston's.
