Was just thinking about it in school today, we havn't seen a properly new Aston Martin since 2003. Five years ago. I know we have seen things like the DBS and Rapide, but these are just based on a DB9.
I'm just hoping in the deepest, darkest most secretive parts of Gaydon they are building a beast. Something that will eat 599s and LP640s for breakfast. Please Aston Martin, show us something new.

The replacement for the Vanquish hopefully will do what you describe.

I'm sure they released the concept in 2003. I seem to remeber seeing the V8 Vantage concept before actually seeing the DB9 concept.

I would expect any new model to be similarly based. Isn't the beauty of the VH platform that it can be tweaked cost effectively?
