The much-anticipated Aston Martin Rapide has been spotted almost totally undisguised hammering around the Nurburgring.
Interestingly the car, snapped by PH photographer Dale Lomas, now has a full-length glass roof going from the windcscreen to the boot.
This arrangement was seen on the Rapide concept and the car seems to retain much of the looks of that car.
Overall the car appears very much like a stretched DB9, and considering how good that car looks this is no bad thing.
