Been waiting to jump into an Aston. Having a family limits my choices. The Rapide S is a unique options that looks stunning, yet the resale values have me a bit apprehensive.
However, been watching and came across this listing on 6speed:

Does anyone know this car? Does Velocity have a good reputation for parts and performance?

Price almost sounds too good to be true for a car with such low mileage and highly optioned.
Appreciate your input on this one.....this will be my first AM.

 

He had it up in October for 15k more. Beautiful car, I personally prefer the earlier smaller grill version.

i remember him posting those winery pictures. This car for what it is, appears to be a great deal for you. Price is not bad a buddy has a 2009 for sale at 75k with 25k miles, but is no where near as nice as this. Here is another 14' but also no where near as nice, not VAp optioned out, and 18k miles

If you like it, can afford it, and are searching for one, then get this 1100mile 14' with all the goodies. Best color combo also.

Hope all this helps

 

While I'm not a customer, yes they have a stellar reputation here.

 

Thanks for your feedback. The seller mentioned he listed it in the past, but now has a greater sense of urgency to sell and this is his 'bottom line' price. Can anyone tell me how many Rapide S are manufactured each year and how many are shipped to the US? Given the upgrades and discounts, it still sounds almost too good to be true. At the same time, it's still a good chunk of change.

 

Pay $500 for a PPI to be done on the car, or use that money to fly out and look at it yourself. Those Winery pics were posted last year sometime by the owner. Beautiful car, but I posted you a 2014 also with 18k miles for not too much less. So his at 1k miles is a steal, especially if you get all his paperwork. IF he can show paperwork for maintenance, I would just get it. How much can be wrong on a 1k mile car. Geez, its new. The Velocity parts are worth a ton and are good products. So buy it and enjoy

 

The velocity exhaust on that v12 sounds insane

If I had the money and a garage big enough, i'd be all over that car like a fly on you know what
