Yes. If you have a heartbeat, how can you not like the Rapide?

I really like it, S grille included. I’m not sure about the interior on that one, though. The black steering wheel stands out a bit awkwardly.

In person, no doubts at all. I prefer pre-facelift though. Don’t think I dislike any cars over $100k though.

it’s ok. definitely wouldnt look this gift horse in the mouth.

but i imagine its a compromise.

if youre spending a couple hundred k on an automobile, why not just buy a big luxo barge and a big gt?

YES.

I love that color, but I don’t think the interior colors work with it, never mind that the interior itself is looking a bit dated imo.

A pre face-lift Rapide is the only N/A V12 I’ve ever driven and probably ever will drive. It was glorious. Everybody should get to experience the smoothness and the sound of a V12 like that. It’s also quite pretty as well. But otherwise it’s a piece of junk. Cramped interior, back seat is a joke, nav and radio are a pain to use, trunk is hilariously small for a hatch. But I smiled the whole time I was in that car.

I think the pre-facelift looks better.

I love anything Aston so yes.

They are the fastest Aston in the fleet (top speed). And imo, out of all of them, these sound the best. Just make sure your wife doesn’t find out about your 19 year old mistress. She will go at those leather seats with a knife and Aston doesn’t sell covers. They are about $22,000 each and since they are made to order, they’ll take about 3 weeks to arrive.

ok- yes - it’s a fabulous car. But for the money I’d rather have a Flying Spur.

Yes. Hands down, I’d buy it. The last time my truck pissed me off (August), this was on the short list for replacement. Used, if you want a supreme 4-door, they are a very attractive buy. It’s not a smart buy, even having the money, even allowing for a warranty. However, buying any car is a somewhat foolish use of money. So, if that’s the case, at least get something that provides a ride worth the cash. It’s an Aston. It is gorgeous (to me, anyway, knowing aesthetics are personal, yada yada yada). It has a lovely V12 and all the benefits that come with it, including the sound (and the maintenance, and blah blah blah). It even has child seat anchors in the back (I checked). It’s not manual (as far as I know), which is a disappointment. It is a ridiculous, awesome, sedan. I can’t help but appreciate that.

I fixed the truck. Again. But I still think about the Aston... Maybe. Maybe soon.

I was going defend them. Some of their stuff is okay. However, doing that to one of my favorite cars is not ok.

something about the shape makes it not photo well. I love them and definately would if I could, although I also like the Panamera

Rapide S (like pictured): No, unless it has a Rapide (non-S) front bumper cover installed.

Rapide: Yes, despite smallish rear doors.

That grill is an abomination.
