Aston Martin’s Rapide four door sports car is the company’s most anticipated new model. The promise of a sedan version of anything Aston Martin has been enough to keep sports car fans chomping at the bit.
Well it’s almost here. These new spy shots were taken during winter testing near the Arctic Circle. Talk about frozen! The car is spotted drifting through endless amounts of ice and snow. Looks like fun!
Production changes to the concept include thicker side mirrors which are now mounted on the A-pillar. These replace the concept’s delicate fender-mounted mirrors. The prototype’s side fender vent also loses its LED turn indicator to a chrome strip, and the side turn indicator is now placed below the vent as a small marker light.
Thats all that is visible for now, but rest assured that we’ll keep you updated on this awesome new car.
