Why, just why would you waste a brand new Vanquish for this monstrosity…

Not to my tastes but variety is the spice of life and if it means another 77 Vanq sales for AM why not?

I wondered where my lounge radiator had gone.

Interestingly they only mention Aston Martin twice. Why didn't they start with a Mercedes, as usual?

Is the engine basically the Vanquish lump?

That is a real more money than sense car.
It`s almost a spoof.

Taking a great looking automobile and turning it into crap.

Saw it in the flesh in Como when it has been presented. I like it, very villain-car vibe. Just behind it you could see the Maybach Exelero, clearly its father.

How about making it electric and painting it pink?

Ahah cheeky!

Took no pics of it though, just this one where it is in the background.

Looks like it was an AMG GTS.

...so would it work the other way: buy a Vanquish and get Brabus to tune the engine??

Who would take a silk purse and turn it into a sow's ear?
