The front end is growing on me, although the mesh grill still looks kind of cheap for a supercar. But I’m loving that Lime Essence paint job and diffuser.

Can’t wait for the manual versions to come out.

Love the front, can’t stand the painted defuser

Pretty fantastic. Such an interesting design. I think the diffuser makes the back look messy and overdone

I said it on the FP the other day but I love that this thing looks a little “concept-ish” including that color. I think if it had been rolled out with a manual, oppos would be a little more excited about it. The grill is growing on me.

I actually like it. If I had the money I’d still go with a 911.

Any idea what’s up with the black and yellow Bentley in the background in that picture of the front of the Aston? Some sort of special edition maybe?

the back is ugly as a hat full of arseholes.

Nevermind. I think I found it on their website. Looks to be a Black Edition.

Continental GT Speed. You can get them either as a single color, or with optional contrasting accents.

And now I know why pictures of the back end are scarce... yikes.

Yuck. People do not buy Aston Martins to get every possible tenth on the track. They buy them because they are gorgeous grand touring cars.

I think it’s a Breitling Jet Team edition

Trying to fix the ugly on my Elantra grille stainless steel mesh of that pattern is surprisingly expensive. The cost of that grille is mostly in materials and not tooling so you are getting better value for your money.

I have a theory that this is a car that looks notably better when its not being photographed 2 feet off the ground.

So many cars look great while youre standing or even in traffic but when you ask something so low slung to be photographed from the dirt they have a very down your nose look
