Aston Martin, the iconic British luxury sports car producer, has captured the imagination of anyone who has seen a Bond movie. The first-ever Aston Martin to be used in a Bond movie was the DB5 in Goldfinger. Aston Martin has been in the business of luxury sports car manufacturing since 1913. Fast-forward to 2010 Aston Martin introduced the Rapide, a 5-door 4-seater, high-performance sports saloon, a diversion from their grand tourer vehicles. The Aston Martin Rapide was produced until 2020 with four models under its name. Up for grabs is a 2012 Aston Martin Rapide with just 18,600 miles on the clock.
Exterior and Interior
The 2012 Aston Martin Rapide was available in a host of exterior color options, this Rapide flaunts the Jet Black paint job. If you feel that the Rapide resembles the Aston Martin DB9, you are not far from the truth, in fact, the Rapide is a stretched-out DB9 with various other design changes to make it look muscular. The front features the distinguishable split Aston Martin grille. The hood is host to the Aston Martin logo and dual hood vents finished in chrome. The front side fenders feature vents with integrated turn lights. The rear features dual exhaust tips done in chrome, with the Rapide and Aston Martin badges on the trunk lid. It also features a molded duck-lip style spoiler with integrated brake lights. The car sits on a set of 20” 20-spoke wheels finished in silver with bright orange Aston Martin branded brake calipers lurking behind. The car's entry is facilitated through the swan doors with frameless windows. The interior is done in the complimentary leather in Obsidian Black with a contrast stitch done in white. The front bucket seats feature a perforated design, with the Aston Martin logo stitched onto the headrests. A 16- speaker Bang & Olufsen sound system with two tweeters that rise from the dashboard on activation of the system provides you with a premium listening experience.
Engine
The heart of this 2012 Aston Martin Rapide is a 5.9L V12 engine mated to a 6-speed ZF automatic transmission. The power output of the Rapide is 470hp, and 443 lb.ft of torque. 0-60 mph is clocked in at 5.2 seconds, with a top speed of 188 mph. All-wheel disc brakes facilitate the stopping power while onboard driver and parking assistance are standard.
The Aston Martin Rapide S took the brand’s unmistakable grand-touring character and stretched it into a genuinely usable four-door without sacrificing the drama expected from a V12 Aston. This 2014 Aston Martin Rapide S pairs that elegant fastback shape with a naturally aspirated 5.9L V12, while its Quantum Silver finish, extensive carbon fiber trim, and red brake calipers give the otherwise understated sedan a much sharper edge. Inside, Obsidian Black upholstery, carbon fiber trim, embroidered Aston Martin wings, contrast stitching, and Bang & Olufsen audio reinforce its hand-finished luxury character. Showing approximately 25,079 miles, this Rapide S offers a compelling mix of V12 performance, long-distance comfort, and four-door practicality.
Aston Martin, known for their fine sports cars that carried James Bond around in many a movie over the decades, stunned the world when they released a four-door car in 2010. Called the Rapide, it was made until 2020, as a five-door liftback-styled executive car. Sitting on an extended DB9 and Vanquish platform, the Rapide quickly gained a cult following. It was recognized as a fast four-seater that served the Aston Martin enthusiast who had a family to satisfy as well. Today’s 2016 Aston Martin Rapide S is thus ideal for the petrolhead with commitments, and has traveled 26,000 miles so far. It’s located in Garfield, New Jersey, and if you’re still on the fence about buying this car, perhaps its lovely 5.9-liter naturally aspirated V12 will be the necessary factor to swing you towards this captivating machine.
Can you imagine an Aston Martin Vanquish or DB9, but with four doors instead of two? You might banish the thought as mere fantasy, but Aston Martin did turn fantasy into fact with the Rapide. Produced from 2010 to 2020, the Rapide was named after another legendary four-door from Aston Martin’s history, the Lagonda Rapide. Offering a value proposition like no other, the Rapide makes for an interesting family vehicle if you’ve got two kids or less, but want that iconic Aston Martin V12 and driving experience. Sounds like you? If so, contact us and take home this 470-horsepower, 12,192-mile 2010 Aston Martin Rapide that comes with all servicing reportedly up to date. Need we say more? If so, here goes.
The 2006 Aston Martin DB9 Volante blends elegant grand-touring design with the open-air character of a traditional British luxury convertible. Showing approximately 45,430 miles, this example is finished in Onyx Black Metallic over a striking Chancellor Red interior, creating a classic Aston Martin color combination with plenty of visual presence. A black convertible soft top, 19-inch alloy wheels, red brake calipers, navigation, Linn premium audio, and walnut cabin trim round out a specification that balances performance, luxury, and long-distance touring appeal.
The 2005 Aston Martin DB9 Coupe is one of those grand tourers that still feels special before the V12 even comes to life. Showing 40,167 miles, this example is finished in Tungsten Silver over a Black Cherry interior and pairs Aston Martin’s 5.9L naturally aspirated V12 with a 6-speed Touchtronic II automatic transmission and rear-wheel drive. The cabin has been given a far more bespoke character through diamond-quilted Alcantara seat inserts, an Alcantara headliner, Alcantara-wrapped dashboard and steering wheel, and Aston Martin embroidered headrests, while an aftermarket touchscreen infotainment system adds a more modern interface. Outside, aftermarket wheels and a front splitter sharpen the DB9’s otherwise elegant profile. It remains very much a classic Aston Martin GT at heart—long-hooded, V12-powered, and built around effortless high-speed touring—but with a custom presentation that gives this example its own identity.
The 2000 Aston Martin DB7 Vantage Coupe represents one of the most elegant grand tourers of its era, combining classic Aston Martin proportions with the added performance of the V12-powered Vantage specification. Showing 28,982 miles, this example is finished in Bowland Black over a Charcoal and Light Grey Connolly leather interior and is equipped with the especially desirable 6-speed manual transmission. Factory highlights include carbon fibre veneer, a heated front windscreen, electrically controlled front seats with adjustable lumbar support, and even an umbrella holder with golf umbrella. With its hand-finished cabin, naturally aspirated V12, and manual gearbox, this DB7 Vantage offers a distinctly analog take on British grand touring.
