It looks slick. Tail pipes look a bit small. Side profile reminds me of the RCF (kind of compressed). Headlights look cheap. For a such a simple front end, I would think that something like the headlights would look extra detailed. look like depo lights.

It reminds me way too much of the MX5. The DB11 looks to be better in every way IMHO

Looks like any other Aston and I thought it was a Mazda at first glance too.

I like it, the exhaust doesn't match the beautiful rear. Reminds me of the 4c

im liking the interior and rear, but the front end looks unfinished.

Looks like Jag F-type, Tesla, and Lexus had a kid.
I agree on the F-Type comment.

Can someone explain the relationship between Aston Martin and MB-AMG that would lead to this motor being used?

I'm starting to warm up to it. I think it looks best in dark classic Aston colors. The front grill is just too simple, it looks like something is missing.

The contrasting side blade ruins the side lines. It looks better without it.

I agree with many comments that the car looks good in some ways and odd in others. I see a lot of AMG GT/S influence on the interior aside from the obvious in the motor. Will be interesting to see how the car has evolved. Is it more precision and sport or more GT/cruiser.
