Anyone else getting distinct Mazda MX-5 vibes from the front angles? (Not necessarily a bad thing).

My initial impression when I saw it was ‘wow’. But having just seen a 20 min overview of it, I am pretty underwhelmed
The headlights look like an afterthought and the front grill/splitter and rear diffuser look very Halfords.
I also thought the interior looked a lot like an old TVR
I can’t put my finger on it but it just doesn’t flow right front to back

Yep, a bit of Mazda. And some F-Type too!
I'll stick with Porsche.

Looks better in the flesh - but still definite MX5 looks at the front. Back looks awesome IMHO.

Front definately
I think Wingco needs to go a check his rear light cluster as Aston Martin seem to have nicked one off a Porsche.

For that money, I'd prefer a GT3 with a few well chosen options.
I prefer my Panamera rear lights, Col.
And I prefer the back end of an F-Type coupé to that of this new Aston.

It's far too fiddly and will cost £120 - £130K. The rear end is screaming out for four pipes and appears to be suffering from Hemorrhoids
