Certainly BMW's new CS concept has a very similar profile but a much more aggressive/masculine front and back end ............I like it !

I like it as well, but just don't think it's "fresh" enough. I'd hate for Aston to suffer the same fate as Jaguar with its old/retro designs. And, wow, that's sure is a long front overhang.

It does have some camouflage on. I like it. A 4-door, smart move. Aston doesn't make a bad looking car.
looks like that is about to change if this thing makes it to production.

Looks like it's 7 meters long. But still, it looks nice!
