I looked at the Rapide when I was at HWM looking at the Coup last week. For a 4 seater it looks like a lot better job than a Panamera. Rear seats were pretty tiny.
I am finding the new Virage and RapideS are beginning to try to hard on the styling front. I preferred the DB9 when it first came out. Its hard to improve on such a nice design.
It was funny looking along the rows of Astons and seeing the Coupe at the end. It looked like a James Bond convention and Blowfeld had parked at the rear !
