How the front of the new Vantage should look
#7
I wholeheartedly disagree. And not because I think the new Vantage is good looking, but because the DB10 is hideous.

I had a chance to see the DB10 next to the previous Vantage and thought the previous Vantage looked in some ways busier (more seams) but better - but the 20" wheels fill the wheel wells much better than the previous models which does make a difference (and why I added wheel spacers to my V12S). Still the new interior is a mess compared to the older ones. With newer cars coming out with incredible displays and cool designs at much lower prices (C*, most Mercedes, Porsche Tacan, etc.) Aston has to do something and fast.

Why didn't Aston maintain the counter clockwise tach on the DB11? I assume the new Vantage is the same in that regard?

I think Andy Palmer wanted to put his signature on the line - it's no mistake that the DB11 launch addition black roof had a Nissan Maxima look which I thought took away from the elegance and cheapened the car. When my local dealer came back from a Vantage preview they told me I would not like what I was going to see, that the car was more like the Vulcan than the DB10. Edsel wanted to put his signature on the Ford brand - look how well that ended out. The really cool stuff of the most successful era - the DB9 and Vantage should have carried forward - the clean lines, and elegance - both inside and out - the DB11 does better, the Vantage - yuk.
