Hmmm, interesting. Maybe in a different colour.
It's the front spoiler that's the sticking point for me, doesn't gel with the rest of the design.

fuuucckkkk!!! Please kill it with fire!! Those wheels are SO UGLY! There front is very Virage (good thing I guess?). The rear spoiler looks like a damn Lotus Evora's and the rear is way too round! Makes it look like a V8 Vantage...

Please AM, give us something that looks more like the disguised car on the ring!

Here's a video of it at Villa D'este - there are certainly some angles from which it looks great. Those wheels, or more to the point the paint job on them, just don't belong on an Aston Martin

As an Aston fanboy, I approve. It's simple, and it seems much more youthful than the previous DB9-based Astons. The DBS had a sort of old-fart air to it lately. Reserve one for me please!

EDIT: on further review, I think that I would like it much more if that black part of the lower air intake area was painted the body color rather than the contrasting black. It would still keep the overall styling language of the original I would think.

I've realized that I've seen some of the One-77's influnce on the designs as well as from the Virage!

Can anyone make a little photoshop for me? Can anyone turn the carbon fibre front bumper area into red (and the little red spliter in carbon or black)?
