Today, Aston Martin released the two sharpest renderings of its production-ready Rapide to date. Where the previous images of the car were dark and harder to distinguish, these latest renderings are bright and easier to read.
Granted the new pictures really aren’t telling us anything that we don’t already know. From the former renderings and spy shots we’ve been able to confirm the sexy sedan’s seductive shape. We like the front end’s snarling guise and the One-77-esque hood vents. We already know that the back end slightly resembles the Vantage, and we approve of that too.
What we dislike is the fact that Aston hasn’t told us when we will see the four-seat sedan in person. We expect that the car may be unveiled at the 2009 Geneva motor show in March.
Usually the production models are tamed down version of the concept car. It appears to be the opposite with the rapid. The concept looked like a stretched DB9, but in these pictures the production model has taken on a little style of its own.
