Rapide Question
Hey Guys,
I will be looking at picking up a new car in the next few months and have narrowed my search to include the Rapide. I absolutely love the stunning lines of this car and their used prices make them seem like a bargain. I've been looking into 2011's with low mileage. What are some things to watch out for and can any owners chime in on their experiences?
Also, are there any dependable tuners for this engine and what gains would one expect?
Thanks in advance

I've recently bought a 2011 Rapide with 8000km on it, i don't regret my decision one bit. Coming from a V8 Vantage which i still own and love, the Rapide is far better for a daily user its so much more comfortable. I can't help much with the questions you asked but all i can say is see the car in person and if you fall in love, GET IT with NO REGRET! Good luck!
EDIT:
I just saw the cars you own in your sig, will you be selling anything and replace it with the Rapide or keep them all? Im a huge AMG fan but even a BIGGER Aston Martin fan.

I'm glad to hear you're happy with your purchase. I think it will offer exactly what I'm looking for. As for the AMG's, yes, I'm a bit of a fanatic. I have owned nothing but AMG's for the past few years, lol. My friends and wife think I have a problem I will be selling the C63 sedan as it has not been driven in months. I've actually been daily driving the Black series as of late.

+49BHP & 45ft/lbs should be achievable along with a great sound. We have installed this kit on the V12V, V12 Zagato, DB9 so far but not a Rapide (although the parts & software are all the same.)
