Had my car booked in to have a few things sorted out and having the chance to look at the nice Vanquish ;-)

I have to say that it's not on my list of favourite colours for the vanquish. Awesome cars though.

My favourite combination is where the CF melts into the car rather than looking like a bolt on part:

I agree, having looked at it in the flesh it doesn't look as nice as I thought, that's the CF not the car as a whole.

I think that red one would really suit clear tail lights to break it up back there.

Haven't seen a green one yet... Love the idea of a dark green car which contrasts with the black carbon like an old Blower Bentley scratchchin

Well yes, that looks a lot different.

Because it's a DB9/Virage.......

I have to say the vanquish looks so much better in the flesh, on the road, than in photos or even the showroom

it is also incredibly colour sensitive and looks almost an entirely different car in some colours - the fact you can accentuate the black bits with black roof, full length strakes, handles, etc adds to those differences

I was incredibly concerned with that front lip when I saw the first photos but I think a lot has to do with angles - even when vanquish is in a light colour, looking at it in the flesh from a natural angle whilst standing up, it's nowhere near as pronounced

The new Vanquish at the very worst, can be compared to Cindy Crawford in her day:-





......And let's face it, if all girls with a lip-mole looked like that, we'd all do one.

This is really good looking. Clearly Skyfall Silver is intended to be a rerun of Silver Birch.
