Aston Martin Rapide – Four Door Super car
Posted by admin in Aston Martin Rapide on October 30, 2010
In addition to beautiful styling and appearance, you may be wondering what all the fuss about Aston Martin RAPIDE. You could say it is a competitor of the Porsche Panamera and Maserati Quattroporte RAPIDE But the price is much, much higher than the two rivals came with a price tag of more than two hundred thousand dollars. Aston Martin CEO RAPIDE been dubbed the world’s first super car four doors – a claim that is big enough when you consider that it is not as fast as the Porsche Panamera Turbo.
The stock RAPIDE six liter, V12 engine, four hundred seventy-hp and six-speed automatic gearbox with the DB9, and 0-60 time of about five seconds muster. The RAPIDE is the weight, center of gravity low and highly rigid chassis to incorporate a form of exercise that right four-door car.
The RAPIDE more like a grand tourer than driving a sports car race and the steering feels light accordingly. But unlike high-end luxury sedans like the BMW 7-Series or Mercedes S-Class, none of the winding side to side movement that you might experience when cornering. RAPIDE suspension could be tightened further to give very firm ride. Involve the Sport mode and can increase your response and six-speed gearbox and hold a sharp acceleration at higher speeds.
The RAPIDE is the kind of car you can drive all day – as long as you are in one front seat. Although the four-door, rear seat tight enough, but to be honest they really can seat adult passengers in comfort from the relative. Leather interior and all drowned in the interior that looks like metal is metal – not cheap plastic finish here secretly. Most of the dashboard is divided by the Aston Martin DBS and, as space for rear passengers, there are a number of surprising cargo, nearly equivalent to the regular sedan.
It’s hard to know exactly where the Aston Martin will enter the market. Much more expensive than major competitors, but without the performance to get a higher price match, which RAPIDE likely to rely exclusively as a major draw for potential buyers – a limited edition of about three thousand prices remain high and will mean that for the coming year.
