Mercedes And Aston Martin May Become Close Friends

It looks like Aston Martin and Mercedes-Benz may be getting real close next year. Rumor has it that Daimler and Dar – the investment firm that has a 50% stake in Aston Martin – are talking about exploring advantages to investing in both auto companies.
Negotiators from Mercedes-Benz (from the parent company) took a trip to Dar last week. Also Aston Martin has been spending some extra time going over important details it its firm.
This doesn’t necessarily mean that they will be creating vehicles together (though that might not be bad). For now we will wait things out and hope that one way or the other they will make a decision that will profit both companies and the vehicles that they produce.
