Yasss. I feel that Zagatos are often hit or miss, but that one’s definitely a hit.

That's gorgeous. So much better than the DB11.

It’s actually better than the original! (I’m not a fan of the new rear-end or the roof strakes)

Hmm, pretty. Of course it is - it’s an Aston!
I’m not sure about that rear diffuser “shell/tray” under the rear end, though. From the back it looks like business, but from the side it’s a bit too much - unbalanced maybe? There’s probably not enough body work on the front and sides to accompany it.
And I’m sure we could do better than those wheels. They’re very sharp, but not exactly beautiful.

It’s nice. But it’s pretty conservative compared to its donor styling. It’s unmistakably an Aston.

Yeah it’s definitely not the most aggressive Z makeover. The good thing is, it should age gracefully, probably even better than the DB11!

I do like it better than the DB11 too! Less fussy, and it looks smaller also.

Yeah the wheels are a bit meh. Those rear lights, though...

Looks a lot like the V12 Zagato.

Yeah but somehow a lot better. I think because it was based on the Vantage the proportion were not ideal, especially on that front end. I think this one is an instant classic!

The DB11 is the one with the roof strakes. The Zagato is based, as stated in the name, on the Vanquish

Is it just me or does the lead image kind of look GTR-esque? Particularly towards the B-pillar

I like this older one better.
