2010 Aston Martin Rapide
Images of the production-ready Aston Martin Rapide have surfaced and it is as stunning as everyone had hoped it would be. The Rapide is expected to use a tuned version of Aston's 500 hp 6.0 liter V12 which should take the car to a top speed of over 180 mph. If the boys from Stuttgart are reading this, take notes because this is a defining example of how to design a four-door supercar. Additional image afer the jump. Link / Source
