If you’re planning a family, you should start with a Rexton

Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha, I don’t believe it, TWO, did he actually admit to that in writing? There’s a Rexton / erection joke in there somewhere, can anyone do better than “Marital problems, maybe its because you didn’t get a Rexton.”

400,000 so they can have enough funds to make new cars

Veda knows little about automotive marketing. Remember, this is the guy (guy?) that bought 2 Ssangyong Rextons….”shudder”…

400,000 dollars! what the hell is this thing going to be? a Maybach? a Rolls Royce? I thought the Rapide was supposed to be a slightly sportier upscale competier to cars like the Maserati sedan and the upcoming panarama, I was thinging pricing would be maybe 200,000 at the most…

Veda, may just sell? Take a trip out of hicksville, visit a dealer and check out the waiting list.

I love Aston Martin and these two models will be hot!! I can’t wait to see them. Aston Martin design with Prodrive know-how?? How irresistable

Under their new owner which is very much performance oriented, they can still keep their overall exterior design and focus on real performance. If they are faster and cheaper than the F430, plus given the long waiting period for a new Ferrari, they may just sell.

What Terminator said. I once saw an XJ220 at an auto show, and man was that a beautiful car. It didn’t sell because the developement team had changed alot of the performance aspects of the car, although I consider it a more advanced car because of the changes.

It would be neat to see Aston Martin compete with Ferrari on terms of performance. They already do a good job of that, but think what an Aston Martin supercar would be like…

I like the way Gumby is leading the pack.

The XJ220’s fate is something that is interesting, and it may not happen to a car in a long time. Nothing was wrong with the car, its twin turbo V6 gave it enough power, but everyone expected it to have a V12. It’s the only car I can think of that would have had a 1995 sticker on it in 1999, and was still “new.” But you can’t compare the DBX to the XJ220.

The Rapide will be miles ahead of the Panamera in terms of luxury. I cant see the Panamera surpassing 200k in price and the looks are not even close to par with the Rapide.

What are you talking about the XJ220 being wierd? It is one of the most beautiful cars ever made and at one time was the fastest car in the world. I don’t know if you’ve ever seen one in person but if you do you’ll be in awe.

RAPIDE is going to rock hard core. i only hope that DBX dosent have same fate as Jaguar’s weird XJ220. However with Porsche ramping up the Panamera, will the RAPIDE stand a chance in the states? STAY TUNED!!!!!

Rapide as a top priority. Just what i wanted to know.
