What are your thoughts on the Aston Martin V12 Zagato? I see a lot of Aston Martin DB9's and Vanquish's around town but I seldom see the Zagato. Most likely it's a rare sight because only 150 of these sports cars will be produced. The inspiration for this...  

Any pic of the front, Ed?

I quite like the body, to tell the truth, but the rear lights are not my taste at all... While the body is very sensual, I find. I would love to see some pics of the front part of the car, to have a definitive opinion... Best, Ed. Nicolas.

Hi Nicolas, Here's a better picture of the front of the V12 Zagato (from Aston Martin's website). Regards, ED-209 ...  

Not bad, from the front! Zagato has a strong design, which is not always...

But I'm just not feeling it. The rear looks like a TVR to me; not a bad thing... Just not signature AM to me. From the profile, the roofline to C pillar looks very Nissan GT-R. Front fenders forward, it looks like... A Hyundai (gasp)! Granted, impressions... 

Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this AM

No worries, thanks for sharing your honest opinions. Now that you mention it, I agree with you that the rear does look like a TVR. If you could pick any current car from the Aston Martin line, which would be your first choice? Regards, ED-209

If I had to choose...

:) Hmmmm... Great question! I think I'd pick the V12 Vantage S as it's a small, nimble package with a killer motor :) One thing about AM motors... They have such amazing exhaust notes; quite seductive and visceral. I think I prefer the Aston audio track t... 

Jaguar-ish styling?

Interesting, ... so which AM is your favorite? Regards, ED-209

I wonder why?

Hi, I wonder why none are headed for Singapore. Maybe other sports cars are preferred by drivers in Singapore? Regards, ED-209
