2012 Aston Martin Rapide Consumer Reviews
Most Helpful Review
Positive Review
Stunning car, exhilarating performance, absolutely gorgeous design and out of this world audiophile experience. It's hard to believe that some of these cars lost 50% of their value after just a few years due to the fact that most people seem to desire a 2 door vehicle over a 4 door. The car feels very short and super sporty when sitting in the driver seat and the rear seats are comfortable and cradling according to the few passengers we took on a joy ride. The layout is just fabulous and this car gets "wows" and aaahhs wherever you go. The front styling is fantastic with sleek looking head lights. The 12 cylinder 6 Liter engine is paired with one of the lowest latency shifting automatic transmissions easily keeping up with some of the fastest Teslas out there but of course...accompanied by the testosterone doubling engine roar meeting and exceeding heart pounding expectations!

Looks, materials, performance

Perfect blend of eye candy, with the finest craftsmanship and materials for a super luxurious ride. But under the hood is a naturally aspirated V12, mated to a seamless 8 speed ZF transmission that when heard, is a pleasant sound that is unique to Aston Martin. And it hugs the road with a perfect 50/50 front to back weight balance that provides superb driving confidence and responsiveness. Truly a mechanical and artistic masterpiece on wheels that only the lucky few will ever experience.
