Exactly what Ford want to do, whore the Aston name - no matter that an $80k Aston would contain half of the Ford parts bin. I'm getting more than a little pissed off with people seeing the Aston name and instantly becoming unable to control their orgasm...when do we get to see something that's a worthy successor to the V8 Vantage LeMans V600 or even the DB6?
Let's face it, if you take the bodyshell away from the Vanquish, it's a disappointment. The DB9's much, much better but because of the immense hype surrounding it, still disappoints. The new V8 Vantage, in my mind doesn't quite match the others for looks (the front end is too "cutesy"). What we need more of is British cars with pure attitude, such as the TVR Sagaris / Tuscan and Lotus Elise.
