Which 4-door car do you prefer?

[DeMoN]

I got into a discussion with a friend and he said that the Quattroporte was prettier than the Rapide Concept. A bunch of friends came over, so we showed them both pictures and not one person said they liked the Quattroporte's look more. So I want to know what the JW community thinks about this. Which would you choose based on looks?

The rapide looks like a coupe with 4 doors ... its just ... not a sedan silhouette , i dont really like it ... The quattroporte is sexier i think .

there's something wrong about the Maser's front end. It really doesn't speak to me. IMO it's too passive looking. The Rapide has a much more focused look and seems as if it has a statement to make. Maybe not the most aggresive, but it makes you take notice.

I like the Rapide more.

Yey!! there we go lol.

Yeah if you look at the quattroporte from the side, the front part is straight and round at the same time. Weird.

Now let`s not forget , that Rapide is only a concept , in it`s final form it could look different

Quattroporte Sport GT anytime , anywhere , any place

I'd take the Quattroprote even though I'm a hardcore Aston Martin fan. The rapide looks like the extra set of doors has been forced into the construction and even though it is beautiful a slightly fresher look would be nice, AM should make the designsof it's car differ more.

EDIT...screw that, I think still think the AM looks more classy

Well at least they do their cars more different than Porsches. But you have to give them credit for their attention to detail and changing small things that makes the car look more "grown up." Things such as the headlights. Damn those are sexy headlights. All other astons have a light layout that show sportyness, while this one, looks classy. The interior, leather with wood on the back? Wow!





The champagne and chess board is a little overkill, but that ought to be removed right?

Well, I like rapide's lines, but.....

I just think that Aston Martin should stick to making 2 door coupes. It doesn't feel right...

On the other hand, I think ( and I'm trying to be objective) that it's a very cool design. Not in any way over the top, but in it's own way, a design that stands out....

This is a hard decision, the rapide looks amazing, and I have a soft sport for the QP since it´s so unique and different to everything on the market. I´d probably end up choosing the Rapide, I just wish AM would separate the look on their cars a bit.

I am sort of bored with Aston's cookie cutter approach to design - all their cars are about 95% alike in looks.

I vote QP GT - it looks very cool in the flesh

[taygunho]

All AM models looks like same.IMO each model must have its own style. QP is really good looking car comfortable and has a great sound. My votes goes to QP

If I consider the design only, the Rapide is purer than the Quattroporte but it's also like a streched DB9 and I find that they (Aston) don't renew their lines so I prefer the Quattroporte.

M5.

[black_magician]

M3 for me.

my message to Aston is "GIVE US SOMETHING NEW" :bad-words:

getting sick of every aston looking the exact same. :x

[DeMoN]

^ yeah I thought about putting that one in, but that would deviate the voting results I want to obtain. WOW I didnt think Quattroporte would get that amount of votes. REMEMBER I am just asking for you guys to consider LOOKS.
