Slats or Mesh - your future Aston's..

[V8V]

Hi everyone
My first poll on something that I'd love to hear views of from other AM owners.

I've always been a HUGE admirer of the Aston designs - to me the signature slatted grill being iconic.
Recently I've read a lot about the centenary CC100 and the V12 Vantage S and the mesh style grille that could feature on future AM models. For me, although I like the promise of new styling and technologies in future AM's, a move to a mesh grille just doesn't sit comfortably with me. It just doesn't look right in my eyes.

Do others agree or disagree - It'd be great to hear your thoughts and see your votes.
Cheers!

Slats for me.

I think the current grille shape with slats first appeared on the DB4 in 1958. So with 55 years of tradition, and such a well known iconic 'face', to change would in my opinion, now be unwise for most of the model range.

Perhaps the plan is to have the CC100 'face', for the most extreme cars only (eg V12VS). That would seem reasonable.

So 56 votes so far and 80% in favour of keeping the slats. Not a huge sample of people but could still be a good indicator. I must let Aston know...

Cheers to everyone who has voted.
