In Reply To I'd be curious to see who is on the design team compared to posted by CaliguyPurdue (redesigning) on October 29, 2008 at 06:06 PM
     
Message & Vantage tail lights being a more "Z-heritage" design , I'd also say the quarter window treatment is a much more appropriate modern replay of the S30 quarter window. (I think the technical term would be: "dead nuts").

With the DB9/Vantage possessing these design elements already, it would have been extremely hard for Nissan to come up with something that used similar elements and not look like a bad attempt of copying the Aston. Sadly, we will never know how well it would have looked on a Z.

If I ever win the lottery, the first thing I'm doing is going to the local Aston Martin dealer and buy one of those. IMO, they're one of the most beautiful cars on the road.
