Gentlemen, I am looking into possibly getting a Rapide S....preferably white or silver. I'm looking for a low mileage 2014. Also any feedback on the car is welcome.

 

backseat is snug.

 

Drove the 2015 Rapide S from Beverly hills to Malibu as a part of their event. I was very impressed with the car! Biggest surprise was when i over 100mph on the freeway and it didn't even break a sweat! Maybe in a few more years for me...

I think White would look the best!

Thanks Seal, emailed ya....

Jatesh, I also did test drive the Rapide S at the Aston yacht cruise event a month or so ago in Marina Del Rey. Likewise, I too was quite impressed by the car. I did not feel the weight of the car as the handling was tight.
Though the back seats are tight, I'd mainly use the car as a daily driver with my kids in the back. The 3 older ones are 8, 5, and 3.

 

I own a 2011 Rapide, its an amazing car and doesn't feel like a 4 door! Its quick and fun if you want it to be and its quiet and comfortable if you also want it to be. The back seat isn't as bad as it seems, my friends fit and enjoy it. Its an Aston they can't complain LOL.

I'm sure the Rapide S is even better and faster so go for it!

 

I was also looking at a Rapide. I was a little concerned that Aston announced they are stopping production of the model. Is anyone else bothered by that?

 

I didn't know that!

 

I thought the AM CEO just publicly announced they are coming out with a hybrid rapide?

 

This is the story, entitled "Aston Martin to replace rapide with DBX crossover, Lagonda Sedan" where I read the stated plan to replace the rapide

No real timeline given, so probably beyond 2017 They have to replace the DB and Vantage to keep crash certification first. Then AM can focus on the other cars in the lineup.
