Just came across these articles confirming that the new replacement for the current gen Vanquish is going to be called... DBS Superleggera

“When you hear the name DBS Superleggera, you know what it is. It’s the definitive Aston Martin Super GT. It’s an icon, a statement and this one will be no different. We’ve pushed the boundaries of performance and design to give this car a distinct character and ensure it’s worthy of the heritage and weight that this name carries”. MR

To those who have already seen the car...
What are your opinions on the rear of the car?
From the spyshots, it seems the test mules are using (at least parts of) Vantage rear lamps.

Here's a new video of DBS Superleggera at the ring.
You can hear more of that exhaust note

I know a lot of members here already got early previews of DBS Superleggera,
but for those who weren't so fortunate, like mefrown,
one of the early viewers revealed that the new DBS will have 715 HP and 900 NM of torque...
900 NM is more than F12 or 812 Superfast (which has 718 NM)

A spy video showcasing the exhaust note!
The official unveil will probably take place on June 26

So, it's June 6th now...
Can those who've seen DBS talk about the details??
I wonder what the rear looks like.... from the spy pics, it seems like DBS has Vantage rear lights

wow that looks amazing!
AML was clearly keeping some details underwraps in previous mules...
Especially love the clear/smoky rearlamps

I don't know why the lip spoiler is a separate piece instead of an integrated one like many other previous astons:/ Doesn't look so clean
