STUD OR DUD? Bertone Reveals Aston Rapide Jet 2+2 Shooting Brake Concept

Bertone Jet 2+2 modifies the Aston Martin Rapide into a shooting brake concept to be unveiled at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show.

There’s a grand tradition to British sportscars remade by Italian coachbuilders, and every once in a while the finest of both countries team up for a deliciously-styled shooting brake.

And now it has revealed one more.

While it does nothing for me, it's nowhere near an Aztek. You just hate everything European. Why not show a little objectivity sometimes?

That’s a little excessive, isn’t it? It’s actually a very interesting looking station wagon/shooting brake. The only thing that rubs me the wrong way is the grille, which is looking very Ford lately (though I understand Aston had it first).

You mean you have stated ‘your’ honest opinion, no one else’s. And you opinion counts no more that anyone else’s, which is why it’s yours.

In other words, you may think it’s ugly, though there seems to be more people who think it isn’t (or is at least interesting).
