New Aston Martins don’t come around every day. When they do, the entire automotive world holds its breath and watches as a new legend is born. Such a moment has arrived… Ladies and gentlemen, feast your eyes on the Aston Martin Lagonda DB1.8 Gosling Vantage (courtesy: Vincent Maltese). Coming soon.

Finally, something I can step up to after my Tupperware-d slushbox Corolla S.
ROTFLMAO! Brilliant!
Jeez..
Im smelling a joke err Corolla.. and it stinks!
Today is April first?
Photoshop much?
You’d have to admit it’s not the worst looking car in the world. And to think a guy with some pics and PhotoShop can pull together a decent looking car in a few hours. What excuse do Chysler, Toyota, Hyundia, etc. have?
‘Shop that nose on the Scion xD/Urban Cruiser and you’ll have the new AM CUV!
Somewhere out there, someone thinks this monstrosity is attractive.
After gazing at it for just a few seconds, I’m waiting for my burnt retinas to heal…
AAAAHHHHHH! My eyes! What kind of sick joke is this?
Who would want that?
It looks like a Cygnet.
zznalg & Secret,
The question isn’t is it ugly – the question is it more ugly than any number of real cars.
This for example:

If James Bond would not drive it, neither will I.
while a corolla might not be the best badge engineering, a lexus, with the proper Aston fine-tuning might make a better Aston sedan than the cramped Rapide.
Spaciousness is not the point of the Rapide. The only reason this car exists is to get the buyer who might otherwise get a Bentley or, heaven forbid, a Panamera.
ARGH! IT’S HIDEOUS! Stop doing these photoshops – it’s freakish and wrong!
Funny, I was going to say it looked like a Corolla with an AM front end not realizing that’s exactly what it is.
I guess it needs all that air intake for the hamsters?
More proof that spilling secrets can and does hurt others. Owwww! My eyes. MY EYES!!!
You’ve done it now. In a few months SAIC, FAW Group, or Dongfeng will cranking out one of these monstrosities for real.
Or worse, some yahoo in North Carolina will be selling kits to make your late model Chevy Malibu look ‘just like’ an Aston-Martin.
Excellent – so that will be the second AM with a semblance of reliability and an ergonomic, and somewhat higher rent interior? ;) Hopefully without the moronic emotional control unit or whatever it’s called ;)

No. Just No.
Outstanding.
It is time to invite Andrei Avarvaari back.
New from KIA:
Ugly as sin.
Aston Martin wouldn’t do anything like that, would they? Was this done by George Barris? Or on Photoshop?
I can put your fears to rest and assure you that Aston Martin wouldn’t do anything like this – they’d fix that paint mismatch right away before putting them on the sales floor.
That’s one schweet ride, although I fully expect that they’l have ironed out the colour-matching of the panels once they get it on to a production model. Very postmodern.
