The first photos of the new Aston Martin Vanquish have leaked online ahead of the car's official debut on tomorrow! The new Vanquish was originally previewed by the AM 310 concept and is the replacement for the DBS.

The new Vanquish will be powered by a revised version of Aston Martin's 6.0L V12 engine that will be mated to a six-speed "Touchtronic 2" automatic transmission with paddle shifters. The V12 engine will pack 565 horsepower and 457 lb-ft. of torque. According to Aston Martin, the new Vanquish will reach 0-60 mph in 4.1 seconds and will a top speed of 183 mph.
That is a very pretty car... and the interior looks nice too. Definitely makes me want one more....

Good choice putting $4,000 rims on your 1990 Honda Civic. That's like Betty White going out and getting her tits done.

Wheels are easy to swap, everything else is working for me.

I don't care for the Aston's wheels but they look nothing like the Mustang wheels in that picture.

split five spoke "spider" designs; the Aston has no lip while the SVT version does. "nothing alike"? WAT?
