Aston Martin Rapide

2012 Aston Martin Rapide Luxury Sedan Exterior

For decades, international men of mystery have faced one particularly vexing conundrum: Which one of the three potential paramours eyeing them across the baccarat table gets a ride home in the sexy two-seater parked outside. Thanks to the four-passenger Aston Martin Rapide, he no longer has to choose.
While many purists regularly express outrage that any model with more than two doors could possibly be labeled a sports car, the Rapide proves that an automobile's sporting potential has little to do with the number of doors. Based on the British luxury marque's sexy DB9 coupe, the four-door Rapide largely shares the downright gorgeous interior and athletic handling, which make it feel less like a luxury sedan and more like a true sports car that just happens to have an extra set of doors.
