Edmunds' Inside Line reports:
VANCOUVER, British Columbia — Olympic Games gold medalist Evan Lysacek, who took the top prize for the U.S. in men's figure skating last Thursday, says he will treat himself to an Aston Martin DBS. The skater reportedly owns a Range Rover but says he now wants the DBS "just like Bond."
Lysacek was quoted by Yahoo! Sports on Monday saying he'll buy the $269,000 sports car in Los Angeles soon after the end of the Olympic Games. Yahoo! Sports quoted Aston Martin Newport Beach salesman Gary Briggs, predictably, as saying the DBS is "very much the gentleman's sports car...a fine choice for an Olympic champion."
