Doing a drag race between these 2 cars is very stupid. I thought Autocar would understand what these cars were about. They are about prestige, style and a compromise between comfort/conviennent/performance

As much as I respect Autocar and top Gear, both are unable to abandon their love of their country and admit that Astons are constantly beaten on paper by their competitors. When they say things like "Fun to drive" and "Rather beautiful" what they are saying is that what they love about the car is that it is British. That's not to say it's a bad thing. I understand where they are coming from. I am American and I love muscle cars because they are epic and American. And I like the sound. :)

I do not have the Rapide, I have the 2013 Porsche Panamera Turbo. I never saw the "ugly" in it. I think it's beautiful, especially in GT Silver Metallic. I was in love when I stood next to it, then I drove it, which was/is pure magic. It's just simply amazing. I do like the Astin, but I will never trade my 970 turbo....ever.

@adibazi Faster doesn't mean more fun to drive. Steering feel and handling are much more important than a 1 second difference from 0-60mph. I doubt u would notice a performance difference on public roads. (The 0-60 difference is mostly down to 4wd and the Doppelkupplungsgetriebe anyway. It's not that much more powerful.)

Well... We can make a big discussion about "which car looks better". In the end, it's a matter of taste. It is a fact that Porsche sells way much more Panameras than AM sells Rapides. So it's obvious that the Rapide is a little bit more exclusive. I'm from Germany and I love Porsche. But I've to say that the design of the Aston Martin Rapide is very special and with big love for the detail. In my opinion Aston Martin should put a Twinturbo and a launchcontrol in that thing... :)

Neither car is ugly, but the Rapide's definitely the glamour queen here. Still that Panamera Turbo's power and performance would probably win me over in the end. I'm a little disappointed that Aston took the trouble to give the DB9 2 extra doors and still not be comfortable for 4 people.

Here's the bottom line. Aston is referring to this car as " A 4 door sports car" which is fine. When you put four doors on a car that normally means you want to transport more than 2 people "comfortably" Other than having graceful lines it fails miserably as sports car and being able to transport 4 people comfortably when compared to the Porsche. When a company creates a vehicle that winds up being the fastest 4 door car around Nurburgring you wonder how Auto Car can claim the Astons more fun.

Aston Martin is luxurious. It's a car to be driven in. The Panamera is opposite. It's more like a BMW M5 but with more space. You can thrash it and it will reward in return. Rapide no doubt has the nicer design. A car to be seen in. I'd go for the Aston if i had the choice.

I have to say that the Porsche is a car for a family, its bigger and have more space in the back. Now if its just you and your girl/boyfriend chose the Aston, but if you still want a porsche and don't have a family, better chose the 911 Turbo, its the same price of Panamera Turbo ( $ 135,500.00 ) and even faster.

I would choose the Aston as well, but the next question is.... Aston is like Audi. They look all the same. unfortunately
