  • skipvt, on 11/09/2009, -1/+24Bond, James Bond..
  • MathieuB, on 11/09/2009, -1/+22What a great looking car. You bet that Jeremy Clarkson will get his hands on it and drive it in the upcoming season of Top Gear.
  • Awwzm, on 11/09/2009, -2/+21Looks alot better than the squashed Porsche Cayenne...I mean Panamera.
  • MakanGuru, on 11/10/2009, -0/+13Aston Martin still makes the sexiest damn cars
  • Awwzm, on 11/09/2009, -0/+13I count 3 leather lined cupholders for your cup holding needs.

  • clippclop, on 11/10/2009, -0/+12The exhaust actually spits out $100 bills driving down the street.
  • designet, on 11/10/2009, -0/+12not a great departure from their earlier designs is it?
    still, why mess with perfection?
  • twinklyJesus, on 11/10/2009, -0/+9dude, subaru doesn't make a lambo..
  • Crimsoneer, on 11/10/2009, -0/+7Well tough luck. You're never getting any of them.
  • clippclop, on 11/10/2009, -0/+6Shhh, he thinks cheap lambo doors on his old wrx makes it a lambo.


    Here is the toon town I am ashamed to say that some idiot has a piece of ***** rusty old bronco (or something) with lambo doors. There's also a yellow saturn with them.

    I hate people
  • downhomecookin, on 11/10/2009, -1/+7I'm pretty sure if you press the button in picture 40 it will shoot a saw blade through the seat.
  • Dynamoo, on 11/10/2009, -0/+5It is very nice, and obviously an Aston Martin.. but I think the problem with Astons is that they all look more-or-less the same and have done for the best part of a decade.. perhaps they could come up with something else? Not the bloody Aston Martin Cygnet though: http://www.astonmartin.com/thecompany/news?a=ee5fb ...
  • Lucas123, on 11/09/2009, -0/+5But does it have an ejection seat?
  • Frixionburne, on 11/10/2009, -0/+4NOVEMBER 15TH!

    needless to say, 8pm EST on BBC America: James May goes to the moon.
  • twinklyJesus, on 11/10/2009, -0/+4It's nice to see you haven't been affected by mass production. It's good that you can recognize "hand-built" when you see it.
  • Dignan666, on 11/10/2009, -0/+3Its not bad. I prefer the quattroporte. But honestly, I like a sports sedan to be incognito. Like an M5, or a amg mercedes (s, cls).
  • Darkyuubi, on 11/10/2009, -0/+3No it isn't loser. Ford sold them years ago.
  • Kanaka, on 11/10/2009, -0/+3If only i had £45.5m...*Sigh*
  • theghoul, on 11/10/2009, -0/+3Oh man... *rubs nipples. I must have this car.
  • BigPapi, on 11/10/2009, -0/+2It'll be interesting to see how many Rapide's and Panamera's will sell in comparison to their 2-door counterparts. I mostly see older people driving the quattroporte - people who would usually be driving a 7-series or LS460 but are looking for a little sportiness. I prefer incognito too and would pick the M5.
  • dktrnimrod, on 11/10/2009, -0/+2you're such a baller.
  • FSkornia, on 11/10/2009, -0/+2All those pictures and they couldn't pop the hood to show us what's underneath? Damn tease.
  • djhash, on 11/10/2009, -0/+2very...VERY worried
  • Anaujiram89, on 11/10/2009, -0/+2Take that Porsche. Phis is how you design a 4 person performance car
  • djhash, on 11/10/2009, -0/+2It actually takes a lot of a designer to re-hash an excellent design to begin with.

    Imagine you are a designer. One year you finish designing a product and everyone says, "Wow, excellent, perfect... etc...". Then next year your boss tells you, hey why don't you take a look at what you did last year, find some flaws and fix them.

    Usually the first thought that comes to a designer is.. "But.but... its perfect.. i don't want to mess around with it..". Unless ofcourse you are a very bad designer who always makes flaws and everyone is trying to be nice to you.
  • Jektal, on 11/10/2009, -0/+2That car would make having kids worth it.
  • inactive, on 11/10/2009, -0/+1Thats basically sex in car form...too lazy to look up the specs, but i'm assuming they're Bond worthy...
  • RevolverSnakeMG, on 11/10/2009, -1/+2Looks like a 4 Door DBS
  • tava0002, on 11/10/2009, -0/+1Holy ***** where have I been, still wouldn't be the first car I'd buy in that price range which may be why I don't pay attention to them.
  • inactive, on 11/10/2009, -0/+1I agree. Sports cars are to get AWAY from the family, and everything else. Id rather the car be a little smaller with a bigger trunk...
  • Jektal, on 11/10/2009, -0/+1I was actually hoping they'd pry it open a little more so I could see where the spare is hidden...
  • cosworth99, on 11/10/2009, -0/+1I need a 172 point ASCII version of "WANT"
  • benshelock, on 11/10/2009, -0/+1Original design...
  • Kidddrunkadelic, on 11/10/2009, -0/+1Sold majority of Aston Martin.
  • Jektal, on 11/10/2009, -0/+1It's not actually wood-grain paneling if you look closely. More of a marble design. Still, I'm not a huge fan of it, hopefully for whatever ungodly price they charge for this thing you have some interior trim options...
  • wayneamartin, on 11/10/2009, -0/+1nice, but does anyone else think it has too much junk in the trunk?
  • downhomecookin, on 11/10/2009, -1/+2I want buy. How much you want is for price?
  • ewild01, on 11/11/2009, -0/+1I drove behind one of these in Austin, TX for 20 minutes yesterday...trying to figure out what it was.
    BAD ASS is what it was.
  • MacBookForMe, on 11/10/2009, -0/+1Oh, just too much for this amazing hottie...
  • BigPapi, on 11/10/2009, -0/+1Agreed. The Panamera is pretty damn ugly.
  • cashmultiplier, on 11/10/2009, -2/+2Is this a new trend for the sports car to be heading, with Porsche Panamera, Maserati Quattroporte and now the Aston Martin Rapide. Is not as if you would want to take your kids down the race track and scare the living daylight out of them. Sports car manufacturer should just stick with what they do best. No nonsence high performing cars - over the top speed, oversize engine, high fuel consumption and massive carbon emission with a great price tag.... Just dont get the family involved!!!
  • metaldwarf, on 11/10/2009, -2/+24 doors...

    coming soon, the Aston Martin minivan
  • ThantiK, on 11/10/2009, -1/+1That looks an awful lot like the new sedan Tesla is releasing.
  • clippclop, on 11/10/2009, -1/+1It looks Mitsubishi lancer inspired from the side view at some parts of the car.
  • Surferess, on 11/10/2009, -1/+1DBS?
  • verynegative, on 11/10/2009, -3/+3These are 3d illustrations.
  • xwatermelon, on 11/10/2009, -1/+0im aware(:
  • ProudBlackMan, on 11/10/2009, -1/+0Reliability will suck!
  • Kidddrunkadelic, on 11/10/2009, -2/+14-door? ugh.

    Nothing beats a Vantage(77-89, 05 & up) and the One-77.
