Close-ups of Aston Rapide V12

First we saw and heard the Lexus LF-A and its V10. Now listen to Aston MArtin's upcoming Rapide V12.

The long awaited four-door Aston Martin Rapide has been spotted, almost completely undisguised, doing laps of the Nurburgring. This latest video of the prototype includes some close-up shots of the car as it enters and exits a trackside testing facility as well as some high speed runs around the popular circuit.

We also for the first time can hear the rumble of the V12 mill at full tilt as the svelte sedan barrels past the camera’s microphone.

I disagree completely, in fact if anyting the back window could stand to be a few inches longer.

In general I think that cars nowdays are too short in general- which makes them all look so unbelievably obese as well as mind-numbingly boring.

I think the Aston Martin V8 Vantage sound way better than this V12 Rapide. And so does the Lexus LF-A V10 engine.

Nonetheless, this car is Pure Sex on wheel for sure = )
