Hopefully it is a totally new car, rather than another iteration of the same aston platform.

+3

Especially with the new 911 getting ever more Aston-ish, I'd like to see Aston re-invent the DB9.

The V8 Vantage, and all it's derivatives, have done Aston well. However, I do believe they need to update the DB9 to distance itself further from the baby Aston. Sure it's got more power and a bit more comfort/space, but they are almost like two different sizes of the same idea.

Also, the V8 Vantage is so drop-dead gorgeous that the DB9 could really use a facelift. The DB9 is one of the most beautiful modern cars, but with the V8 Vantage in the stable, I'd like to see it updated a bit.

The VH architecture will be used in Astons for quite a while to come. It's cheap to alter and very flexible for creating new models, so the same basic Aston qualities will be apparent in the new model.

Pfah. Another DB9 lookalike.

I already can't tell the models apart ... across the whole damn lineup.
