Looks a bit like a stretched DB10. The front lights seem very similar looking at the outlines through the camouflage.
Looks pretty chunky. More practical in the rear???? Wonder if it's a CF body?

They haven't departed too far from the recognisable design features, that's encouraging - but will probably still annoy the general public who keep saying that Aston haven't changed their look for over a decade.

For me the grill defines the brand and I'm keen to see how it looks. Seems to have the same type of slats as earlier models.

Still wondering what the intake by the rear window might be for? Or is the vinyl just catching air?

That roof design looks very similar to the DBX

That looks pornographic. I love the rear end. Shame about the twin turbo wink

Pretty sure that's the final design. Very fussy though.

I'm intrigued to see the finished design close up. The way the roof blends into the rest of the car looks a bit odd, doesn't look very smooth/flowing lines like I'd have expected, but it might be the angle of the pic.

Hmmm - it doesn't blow me over (as the DB9 did first time i saw it in 2004).

It doesn't make me want to swap up. Looks a bit Chrysler Crossfireish from that angle.

I hope the limited view of the side vent doesn't show that the bonnet will be a clamshell like on the F-Type. I just hate the horizontal cut line in the wing that results. That's one of the nice features of the current AM line up; minimal cut lines at the front, especially the headlight and the nosecone (there isn't one).

Very difficult to tell what it's really like from just one grainy picture!

I'll reserve judgement and share my views after I've seen it in the flesh at Gaydon on the 19th February.

Agree with this, will need to reserve judgement until seen in the flesh to get a better sense of lines and proportion. First impressions are a bit underwhelming though.

I think i heard somewhere that the bonnet will be a clamshell. Cant remember where though!

This registration mark is at present shown to be on a black car, September 2015, 5935cc.

Are we therefore looking at another computer picture?

I reckon it's a photoshop, does not look guite right to me particularly around the front wheel arch. If it's real, it does look a bit fussy to me, I prefer simple elegant lines, but of course need to see it in the flesh.

Here is a picture of the front. I am not a fan of the head light. To sharp/ Japanese
