Oddly, it doesn't involve a Porsche 911 and an autobahn. Nor an Audi TT on the Pacific Coast Highway. Not even -- in what will come as a shock to many who know my "Mad Men" fixation -- Don Draper and a 1963 Cadillac Eldorado. No, I daydream about downshifting off Ford Road and wheeling my own 1997 Escort to the apex of the crescent-shaped drive at Ford Motor Co.'s Dearborn headquarters, eagerly awaited by a huddle of senior managers and designers.

They think they are better than us. And really, they are. Even their name has an acceptable amount of arrogance in it. Aston Martin. You can hear the lilt, the long draw on the A and crisp T. Aston Martin. For one day, I got a chance to try out three of the 2010 models -- the DBS, the DB9 and the V-8 Vantage -- totaling $625,350 worth of cars.

"I like very pure, minimalistic, empty space," says the 41-year-old product designer. Schubert's home, under construction on two acres in the Brentwood neighborhood of West Los Angeles, will be a symphony in spareness: three glass boxes as the main living quarters, a pool house with cantilevered roof, a Japanese tea house and a glass-walled...

The courtship allows you to look over any flaws, the honeymoon makes you forget about them, and only on the commute to work do you undergo a David Byrne epiphany: This is not my beautiful car. No wonder the divorce rate in America hovers around 6,000 percent.
