Are you kidding?
I know this is fairly old news (February 2008), but I couldn't find a thread on it.

I know it's a one-off design concept by Sabino (http://www.sabinodesign.com/), but I would kill to have this made reality.
 
I've seen some one his alternate designs on DeviantArt I believe but this..... this is very much gorgeous.

That last render is a beauty. MAKE IT!
 
From the front it looks to me how the XJ220 replacement would have looked if it wasn't a gigantic failure. :)
 
Ha, well Jaguar borrow some Aston Martin in their current XK, time for the favour to be repaid in kind. lol
 
The only thinhg I'd change is the headlights, and that's just by making them bigger. And if you got £2million for whoever you killed you just might be able to get one.
 
I like it. A lot. I agree that the headlights need to be more prominent on the face of the car. That and it looks like a beached flatfish. How wide is it?

I guess it's more prominent feature is the strength of the curves and that rear.
 
Bit like a few women I know... terrible face (too wide) but a fantastic arse.
 
The front looks like a star wars character / alien, I can't remember which one! :yuck: The lights need to be further foreward.

Definately not a fan of the front but the rear is standard enough 👍
 
The only thing I'd change are the headlights, they need to be moved forwards and maybe be a little bit bigger.
 
Too much! It needs less graphics and attention to the details (not a good thing this time) and more focus and emphasis on the shape. This is why I think the DBS doesn't do any good to the DB9's design. It's just taking an existing shape and adding details. It seems to be what happened here too. They took the biggest, most vast supercar shape and added some (really, only some) AM design details. I do like the rear hips, but they're just cut up by the various creases along the sides.

And Danny - it's not a one-off design, you posted two separate cars in your post. I don't like either.
 
Increase the price of oil and the sheiks who own Aston surely will build it!
 
Kind of makes me think of what an AM-bodied MC12 ME-412 would look like.
 
Aston Martin does not make mid-engined cars, and that one is the reason why. It looks all wrong.

I hate it. Ultrabeat, I find it astonishing that you could disgrace your own domestic brand name and all your countrymen by posting that thing.

And yes, it looks like the ME Four Twelve.

Don't like it. Not very cohesive, and the front end looks like a catfish.

:odd: What? It's extremely cohesive. It flows together perfectly, front to back. It is indeed too long, but the excess length is all in proportion. You could literally do an horizontal anamorphic compression and it would look fantastic. I suppose you'd have to ditch the implied V10, though, but at least it would solve the perceived flatness problem.

I think part of the problem (my eyes keep getting drawn to it as well) is that the canopy seems to be CTRL-C -> CTRL-V from a DB9 with little regard to how it fits into the car's overall shape.
While it flows smoothly enough, it keeps making me think that the car is sinking into the ground in the middle. Like someone took a DB9 and pushed everything within the track width down by about a foot from the front to the back, then just connected the fenders the the car from there.
 
-> Is it me, or the headlights are too small for its wide profile. I looks disfigured in a way. :indiff:
