I heard its going to be 420hp.

The Rapide is not in Geneva, but the V12 Vantage RS is, as a concept, and the PR package insists that Aston Martin concepts are meant to be production ready. Mighty beast with 600hp and 509 lbft, but I dare not think about pricing, thinking about the 50%+ premium that Aston charges for the DBS over the standard DB9.

No word of a power hike on the V8 Vantage.

The AMV8 is either getting the 4.7 liter this year or next year, a little disconcerting that there is nothing about it yet.

If it is not this year, the car will likely get the 400hp from the N400 special edition. (ecu tweaks, new airbox/etc. small tweaks)

No word about a new interior.

the DB9 rumours were all true, aston martin confirmed it on their website.
dbs style new interior, dbs key, 20hp power hike.
