The new business relationship with Mercedes-Benz.
Can we dream about where this concept might be heading?

Looks like a batmobile!! Let's hope that is nothing like what is in the pipeline.

I can certainly see a lot more Aston lines there than SL lines!

IMHO.

Long may it stay with the three pointed star on the front.

There's too much going on. Toned down it could work (which of course is what happens post concept).

Hopefully the "new" Aston will take a forward looking approach to design. A change in look is now due and they would do well to ignore the gaydon era huggers. Don't get me wrong, I love the current look but it's just high time for a change.

Not as hideous as those one off Zagatos featured on here earlier in the summer, but hideous nonetheless.

All of your opinions are greatly valued.
Thank you.

A 'jelly mould' body shape would be a bold step.
Our design team must be careful.

Sorry Jon ,didn't realise you had a sense of humour. smile
The concept is obviously OTT but if toned down could be O.K.
However I am rather a traditionalist when it comes to Aston design and prefer steady evolution

Do you think the M P R bit (initials) was lost on everybody?
If so, I suppose that contribution becomes meaningless.

Completely lost on me matey.
Unfortunately you give little away on your profile which precludes me from making a cogent pun.
