Karmann get it? No thanks

At best, the long shots look like someone took a breathtakingly beautiful (rear engined) Ghia and slapped a Mercedes grill on the front.

Yeah.

It’s a fake Volkswagen that looks like a fake Mercedes, and the bottom eight inches are sculpted entirely (and badly) out of Bondo. Hard pass.

This reminds me of that Mark Twain quote of “If man could be crossed with the cat it would improve the man, but it would deteriorate the cat.”? I think something similar applies here.

Still no decent explanations on so many aspects of this:

Those who prefer glass fields shouldn’t throw stones.

Agreed. I prefer landing in glass half full fields.

Fancy Kristen is laughing at you that you’re a “poor” and can’t afford this yourself.

I happened to see a doc one night called The Store. A 1984 doc about a Neiman Marcus store in Dallas.

Pissboy!

Small block up front and you got yourself a nice lookin t-bucket.

What I want for xmas is a team of royal wipers. 

LOVE IT! I’ve always preferred the aggressive, brutal, boxy look of rally cars to swoopy supercars. God I hope this comes to Australia.

This happens with so many of today’s “hypercars”. We (peasants) are saturated and none feels special anymore. I like this Aston, but I agree with your comment. The W1 is even more forgettable imo. At least the Tourbillons and the Paganis of the world retain some of that specialness, even if the latter is also going…

FOR SOME REASON it doesn’t look or feel that special, nor like an Aston... to me at least. There’s almost a dated look to it. As if in 5 year’s time nobody will remember it and it won’t go on to be considered an iconic-looking vehicle.

Am I right in saying this is the first AWD Aston Martin sports car EVER?

I agree. Actually as a company, I would be upset to create a beautiful thing like this, just for it to sit in some Garage or trailer’d to some show and trailer’d back. What a waste.

Is it just me, or is 1000 hp today not as shocking as 500 was 20 years ago, or 300 was when I was a kid. Seems like everyone and his brother make a 1000 hp vehicle today.

A bunch of racist, stupid, ignorant people are the ones who got us into this mess. And when their lives go to shit, and it will under Trump (people have short memories), they’ll blame “Biden and Kamala’s economy” while being willfully blind to the fact Trump can’t run a lemonade stand without going bankrupt, and will…
