Fun Fact: The DB7, which was the base for the DB AR1, has the rear taillights from the Mazda 323F, the chassis from the Jaguar XJS, the door handles from the Mazda MX5 (NA), the door mirrors from the Citroen CX, the optional automatic transmission from the Hummer H1, the I6 engine block from Jaguar, and if you do get the I6 version, it has a supercharger from the Ford Thunderbird.

I used to work at Aston Martin of Dallas as a Tech. We received the most AR-1 models in the US. We had 5. One was #7, labeled 007. It was sold at auction. I told my fellow Master Tech that they would never sell, as they didn't come with an actual roof. Well, collectors bought them up quick. The chassis and basically everything else is based on the DB7 GT. The A/C blower motors are their biggest weak point as most underpinnings were still based on Jaguar parts underneath the dash, as most people know already. They were very pretty. The body was similar to the Vanquish in look and feel at the time, though custom design. If you feel the door, it feels like a Vanquish, if you get a chance to compare. I drove them to insure everything worked before delivery. They drove fantastic, just like the DB7 GT. Doug's report was very correct as I remember.

The key shape isn't really that uncommon. I'm not sure if it's still the case, but that was the key and tumbler design for Ford locks in Europe for decades, and must be why Aston and Jaguar used them, since they were under Ford ownership.

I missed out on some really cool cars back in the day. I recall in 2005/2006 Gen 4 Supras trading hands for around $20,000 or less sometimes, $25,000 for NSX’s. I came close to buying a Supra, but it would have taken too much out of our house down payment fund. I still feel bad about missing out as it was that really rare bluish purple color that’s kinda like the Ford mystichrome they used on some Cobras.

WOW! Saw one of these at my local Cars and Coffee in a deep metallic burnt orange and it was an amazing spot! Older gentleman that owned it was very impressed i knew what it was haha. Very cool moment.

Check 8:38 to 8:41 the paint reflection shows a very similar, if not exact, shine of the Zagato "Z" no chance that is on accident! They planned that through the body work and paint choice!! Wonderful!

Now this is a cool Aston Martin. Never heard of the DB AR1 before, but god, it looks amazing! 2000s cars are surely my favorite ones!

WOW, way less mistakes! I'll finally concede, you ARE getting to know your cars Doug! Nice review, good choice too!! 90's and early 2000's Aston Martins were just amazing... Hell, A.M.'s are still the "wise mans' supercar."

Standard Ford key of those times, my old Fiesta had the same shape of the key.

8:38 could be coincidence or just incredible design and attention to detail, but the light reflecting on the quarter panel creates the Zagato ‘Z’ using the light and creases in the bodywork

Replacing the panel with the humps probably costs as much as a regular DB7

The keys of Astons those days were standard Ford keys with an Aston Martin plaque glued to it.. I had a Ford "Ka" here in Germany as one of my first cars and it had exactly the same key - without the famous badge though...

It's funny to see the standard 90s Ford switch gear in such an exotic car. Like I have the same dome light, stocks etc. in my very plebeian new edge Cougar.

16:40- my 2004 Toyota Solara GLE has to levers, one for telescopic wheel and one for up/down. The most reliable car I ever had 250k miles and I still have it without any issues except new headlights cus of yellowing.

who know's if they meant to do this, but the body panel at 8:30 reflects the light in the shape of a Z, perhaps for zagato? if they meant to do this, very clever
