Just came from the DB11 presentation from the factory at my local dealer. I signed a confi on the car, so not too much I can say comfortably except that:
1. I feel design is evolutionary yet very fresh. Very nice looking car.
2. I feel like they did a nice job staying true to Aston roots with the styling.
3. It seems power will bring this car in line with some competitors
4. I can't wait to drive one!!!
5. Interior shots are stunning!
That's about all I can without violating what I signed. No secrets I suppose.

I'm trying to plan a strategic "need" to stop by my local dealer and accidentally see one.

I was told production models would begin to arrive in Jan (US).

Anyone watch the reveal? FB had a link to a live stream of it.
The 5.2L V12 twin-turbo developed in-house puts out 600 HP and 700 Nm (516 lb-ft). 200 MPH top speed. 1000 pre-orders already taken.

I had my own private reveal awhile ago..its awesome! The V12 is actually very similar to the current V12 except destroked with lower compression to except the twin turbo induction...turbo was the only step to keep emissions happy and increase power..
Did you hear about the rear spoiler?

I heard him mention the virtual spoiler but was listening to it stream on my commute to work so I didn't catch what he said about it. Fill us in? 
EDIT: AM's FB page just put up a video showing how the virtual spoiler works. The air inlets at the C pillars bring in air, which is the funneled through to the rear where a traditional trunk spoiler would sit, and kicks it up and out.
