Yeah, I don't think the wheel design is bad, it's just the color scheme. They need to be either all silver or all black, but not a combination of both.

It seems that many designers today are not aware of the concept "line of design". You have examples like the Aventador and the 991 where everything seem to belong to the same being. But in this case it looks that they have made the car with pieces from others. Not a fan.

Am I the only one to yet realize that all of the "successful" and "true to the brand" Astons have pretty much come out or were introduced under Ford ownership? I mean look at what has come out since Ford sold Aston: the Rapide (alright, fine), the One-77 (great,but really a true Aston?), the cygnet (self explanatory), that horrid Lagonda concept and maybe a few special editions here and there. Honestly, I think the problem here lies in ownership.

I get what you are saying but Ford would have never made a V12V. Ford kept the 4.3L Vantage at a low HP and would have inched along. I think that there definitely needs to be a bit of editing. It almost feels like the company is lashing out a bit after being under Fords thumb. Hopefully, they will find a balance and begin to make the power sources as modern as the designs.

Agreed. But at the same time, I still think they should step back a bit and try to realize what has made them successful lately. And to me, I think that was because they have made world-class grand tourers styled somewhat conservatively. Astons, to me at least, shouldn't be overly expressive, that's what Ferraris, Lamborghinis, Paganis etc. are for. But what do I know, right?
