DB9 front, V8 vantage rear, and 4 doors in the middle. AM were smart with this idea.

Looks a bit too 'cut and shunt' for my liking. Perhaps they could have changed the lights even a little bit.. but I'm sure it'll look stunning in the flesh.
Should be called the DB9 Vantage... yep, thought of that all by myself lol

I absolutley don't like it. It looks like a completely different car from every angle. Its a stretched DB9, and the back is just a V8 Vantage. The rear looks really out of place.

its rubbish. they just put two doors on the db9 and call it a new car.

Aston never fail to impress in the looks department but it is a case of nothing new. They could have changed the bumper styling or something for a bit of variety.

It's a decent looking car, problem is that in the price range it is and the competition it is facing it's not really a supercar sedan like the Estoque where people would buy it without a care about reliability. I predict that the Panamera and audi RS6 will outsell this 10:1. AM just doesn't have the same reputation as the competition. It's not the driver's car like the porsche, not the king of slippery conditions like the audi, in my eyes it's like a Jag, people that don't care about anything other than style will buy it and that is a VERY limited market right now where people can afford to throw out $ without carefully examining the Pros and Cons of a purchase.

It is so so ugly the new Porsche Panamera sedan is more better then this Aston Martin.

beautiful, i like AM cars. Rapid is 2x more expensive than the CLS63 AMG, so i'll rather go for CLS, it's beautiful also and powerful

something is wrong with the rear end, Panamera is much much worser than this, but Rapide doesnt look brilliant either. Just 2 different cars melted together, nothing special.
