Dont worry, your not alone. Ive always thought of it as a Mid-engined DB7 or DB9 ..thats why I quite like it being a mid-engined fan.

The coupe is called C8 Double 12 S or R for road car and race car and uses the V8 engine. The C12 is a new car and uses a 12 cylinder engine, but with the longer body/chassis of the C8 Double 12.

[F1_Master]

Yeah, I can see an Aston Martin DB7 in that front.
