Aston Martin Cygnet
Aston Martin DB9
Aston Martin DBS
Aston Martin Rapide
Aston Martin Vantage
Aston Martin Virage
- 2014 Aston Martin Cygnet: This is essentially a Scion iQ that is given an Aston Martin interior. For now it's sold in Europe only, but U.S. sales may be possible at a later date.
Aston Martin DB9
- 2014 Aston Martin DB9: The DB9 is due for an overhaul, and eventually, the weight of tightening fuel economy standards will prompt even a small manufacturer like Aston Martin to revise its drivetrain offerings. Look for the DB9's optional six-speed automatic to give way to a transmission with more forward gears, and in the longer term, don't be surprised to see the adoption of forced induction under the hood.
Aston Martin DBS
- 2014 Aston Martin DBS: In the future, drivetrain changes are possible as spy photographers have spotted test mules running around with different plumbing, possibly indicating a forced-induction application.
Aston Martin Rapide
- 2014 Aston Martin Rapide: Look for Aston to change up the Rapide's powertrain in coming years. Don't be surprised to see the sedan's 5.9-liter V12 give way to an equally powerful, but smaller engine using forced induction.
Aston Martin Vantage
- 2013 Aston Martin V8 Vantage: This coupe and convertible get a refresh for the 2013 model year. The 4.7-liter V8 carries over, but Aston will upgrade the optional automated manual transmission from a six-speed to a seven-speed. The V8 Vantage will also get quicker steering and larger brakes, along with updated styling. In the longer term, expect Aston to roll out a new V8 engine that improves on the current engine's underwhelming torque and dismal fuel economy ratings.
- 2013 Aston Martin V12 Vantage: Aston hasn't announced any updates for the V12 Vantage, but don't be surprised if the automaker makes changes to the steering and brakes before long.
- 2012 Aston Martin V8 Vantage: The special-edition V12 Zagato is the top model in the Vantage range, with deliveries starting late in the 2012 model year. Look for the small production run to continue into 2013 with no significant changes to the car itself.
Aston Martin Virage
- 2014 Aston Martin Virage: It's unclear if Aston will continue to chop up its model range so finely as to leave room for the Virage between the DB9 and DBS, but whatever happens, expect drivetrain changes that improve both performance and efficiency.

You guys obviously never saw...or priced...Deion Sander's practice golf cart when he was a player. Among other things, he had a $2,000 stereo installed.
And he was not the only one...by FAR:

Are they going to charge something like...$100,000 for Cygnet? You know, because it is an Aston Martin.

they can certainly give away the Cygnet as gift baskets to hollywood celebs at the award ceremonies.

It's thoughtful of A-M to offer a custom-badged golf cart for its owners...

Everytime someone mentions the Cygnet, God kills a kitten. Won't you please think of the kittens?!?!
