DBS Superleggera. It's a great name. I give them that. Hope that the car can live up to the name. 700bhp V12 would be a nice start. Superleggera translates to light weight so how light can you go with that much horsepower? Under 4000 pounds?

It wouldn't be a tease if they showed anything meaningful. I love a good tease, and a good tickle but that's for another thread!

Enough to see that the front end is more appealing to me than the new vantage

I'm still interested to see the back half of the car though...probably very close to the DB11 but I'm hoping for a bit of the new vantage in the rear.

Pretty sure this video gives away everything now... (RedPants- I think you called it as the new DBS).

The upcoming DBS, the company's IPO, and the full-size SUV (not the DBX!). So far I'm right about all of them

Indeed, looking forward to the reveal.
