You'd think so, wouldnt you? Maybe this is a way to go out in style.

Definitely what the Vanquish should have been from the beginning...but that didn't seem to hurt sales, wow 1500 sold, that's pretty damn good. Now that engine must really sing...520hp is great. 8)

I'd hope they'd inform their customers before the rest of us!

You mean DB8
Maybe they had a little bit of spare time to improve the Vanquish 
I still love those Aston Martins, such goodlooking and well sounding cars. |
AMV8 you whore.  |
Actually I meant what I said, but the AMV8, too. Development of a more or less new car takes time. I bet they have worked on this for more than the few months since they put the DB9 into production.
I would like to have a look at that redesigned boot lid. Wonder how big the changes are...

My guess as to what they are going to do about the boot lid is to integrate the rear brake lights into the the bootlit b/c where the brake lights are now(at the bottom of the rear windshield) they block rear visibility. And Aston Martin has had alot of complains about this from the vanquish. Just a guess though

Well, thank you... I guess? I choose to take that as a compliment. Compliments are nice, so I take what I can get....

Are you guys sure about the Vanquish going out of production so soon?
DB7 was in production for over 10 years and they only just recently replaced it, maybe the vanquish will last as long?
Maybe not?

That looks really good, and hopefully this will be able to defeat the 575m at long last. With a bit of the luck, the interior will be overhauled as well - then the Vanquish will rule the roads..
