RE: Frankfurt: Aston Martin V12 Zagato

I'm still on the fence regarding looks, let's hope the production car sounds like these pre-prods, that is a truly amazing sound!

I like the back, especially the roof-line coming smoothly down. Also the eyes at the back look furious, which is quite nice.

Ah Ha

I like this development

Oh you're so funny.

It looks and sounds fabulous in the metal and I guess a guaranteed investment for those fortunate 150 owners.
For investment think sculpture

Shame, the engine has not been tweaked at all, Most Prev Zagato's had the looks and a tuned powerplant

For the money, i would have expected a little more engineering under the hood, to go with the new bodywork

[lionrampant]

I am strangely unmoved.

Turn the bloomin' stand lights up a bit!!

...is 'double dip red' the new 'recession white'?

[APPed Media]

Looks stunning but £300k + and you get the "bog standard" V12 510 bhp...

[Chicane-UK]

What a stunner! As has been said, a tad expensive for what is essentially a new suit but what a suit!

Nope, dont see it. They both have black A pillars?

Really? Tried looking at them?

No-one's saying it's EXACTLY the same, but the front wing treatment for one is more than similar!

I'm sure it's a great car, but LFA money is too much (at least the LFA is radical engineering, this is just a bodykit!).

If I was buying an Aston (oddly the cheque's still not arrived from the Lottery people...) it'd still be an old Vanquish.

Still, I'm sure they'll find buyers for them all, so why would they care what I think?

Holy thread resurrection but...

I saw the new Zagato go past me yesterday on the M4 of all places.
By god the back end of it is ugly! I'm a big fan of AM generally but the rear on this is very fat and not at all well proportioned in my eyes.

It was in the typical Aston Martin green with a very short private plate on it (1 DB or something like that)
