Happy New Year everyone! In terms of car spots, this year was my most successful one so far. For example, I successfully managed to spot 11 Ferraris as compared to the 8 of the previous year and 6 Lamborghinis as compared to the 1 of the previous year. Some of my best moments were finding a McLaren 765LT during a chilly January day while I passed through downtown Bellevue, catching my first 458 and an Aventador SV on the same day, casually stumbling upon a Gallardo Superleggera in the small town of Kent, spotting a beautifully-specced 612 Scaglietti at Snoqualmie Falls, finding a stunning Aston Martin Vanquish S 2017 in my home town of Shoreline (not posted yet), meeting with the friendly owner of a broken down classic Aston, and spotting an Huracán EVO (not posted yet) with a stunning spec, parked in the same lot as the Gallardo Superleggera, not belonging to the same owner. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed checking out the spots uploaded here on AG and I look forward to the new memories I will make in 2023 / As I was heading home after exiting the freeway, I caught sight of this classic Aston at Meridian Park Elementary School. I immediately made a u-turn and entered the parking lot. It turned out that the car broke down and the owner called his mechanic to come fix it. I talked with the two friendly men as I snapped my shots. The owner was surprised that I knew that his car was an Aston Martin because most people think it’s an old Mustang. Check out the plate on this one! I can’t believe I spotted this unicorn in Shoreline. Definitely one of my best spots. I don’t know the exact type so please correct it if its wrong.

Nice photo, Jonathan! I bought my '76 Aston from a guy in Port Townsend almost 20 years ago. BTW, the one you posted looks like a standard AMV8 (like mine), not a V8 Vantage. The Vantage (almost) always has a front spoiler.?

Happy new year sir! What a way to kick off the new year. This is such a cool classic!

Hi Jonathan. True, but in his comments to you he does relate that he does own a 1976 Aston. I did see that he has no pics posted so it is a good bet that he chimed in just for your post, buddy. @Jjrivero

Happy new year! I hope you can spot more than the past year, even if it was a good year. Very nice aston martin! I would definitely think about a mustang if I saw it far away

What an amazing find, these classics don't come out that much. Beautiful spot and story to it. Have a good year with a lot of new findings!

Great spot of this unfortunate beauty. And sometimes I think that even at Aston Martin they do not know the exact type.
