I Want One, I Want One!

Aston Martin have just announced the new Rapide, the picture although a bit old was found here, for the technically minded, it has 500bhp and 420lb ft to move this two-tonne aluminium Aston saloon along, expect the six-speed ZF auto to be standard and a high-power Rapide to follow later, the Rapide will be the first Aston Martin to be built outside of Britain, with production being carried out by Magna Steyr at its plant in Graz, Austria, we’ll see the Rapide early in 2009, drive it next autumn and the first customer cars should be delivered in 12 months' time, expect the Rapide to be priced between £130,000-£150,000, I wonder when we will see the first one in Thailand? and how much import duty will there be? but I still want one though! just love fast cars.
