I drove a Rapide that a friend of mine was selling for a client. These cars are worlds apart and cannot be compared. The GC is sloppy, unrefined and simple in comparison (and I LOVE my GC). Everything from the door hinges to the way the carpeting meets the console trim is superior in the Aston. Pushbutton shifting, amazingly compliant suspension and a limited slip rear end make the M6 a more suitable nemesis. Even the engine starter noise is superior sounding let alone the novelty of putting your glass key into the center mount ignition and watching it illuminate. I would take a used Aston over a new BMW any day if I wasn't so concerned about maintenance costs.
