Scoop: Aston Martin Rapide Sports Saloon Goes Under the Knife

After the recent presentations of the <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2012/09/aston-martin-updates-2013-vanquish.html">new Vanquish coupe</a> and the refined <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2012/09/aston-martin-plays-you-spot-differences.html">2013MY DB9</a> series, the British automaker has turned its attention to the Rapide sedan that was captured by our scoop photographers with barely any camouflage. <a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-6gSbvA2F6CQ/UGtRpjFvT1I/AAAAAAAJYjU/5YUZrTkiM68/s1600/2014-Aston-Martin-Rapide-Saloon-05.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear:right; float:right; margin-left:1em; margin-bottom:1em"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-6gSbvA2F6CQ/UGtRpjFvT1I/AAAAAAAJYjU/5YUZrTkiM68/s200/2014-Aston-Martin-Rapide-Saloon-05.jpg" width="95"></a>We previously reported that Aston Martin was readying a <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2012/07/spy-shots-is-aston-martin-preparing.html">peppier "S" version</a> of its luxury sports saloon, which we believe still holds true, but we now know that the regular Rapide will also benefit from a light makeover. <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2012/10/scoop-aston-martin-rapide-sports-saloon.html#more">Read more »</a>

Spy Shots: Is Aston Martin Preparing a More Powerful Rapide S Model?

So, what is the British brand doing with this partially camouflaged prototype of <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/search/label/Aston%20Martin%20Rapide">the Rapide</a>? Our spies believe that the car you see in these photos is a more powerful and sportier version of luxury sedan named the Rapide S. <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2012/07/spy-shots-is-aston-martin-preparing.html#more">Read more »</a>
