Aston Martin Rapide concept - AKA ultimate GOOB mobile

Then it would be an S600 with the “why did I spend the extra money” engine:

I don’t even know why these cars are being compared:

  1. the S-class is too heavy to be sporty
    2)it will be out of production before any car such as this Aston is produced
    3)The regular XJ is already more fun to drive than the S-class (no amount of power can save that terrible car–you’re better off in an LS430 if you want boring). I have no doubt the Aston would be much better.
