It's ok, apparently the wife has gotten to you already huh? Women do tend to make us insane. LOL. As for the original topic, definitely a hot ride.

Specs? Hmmmm hard to say at this point. It's based on the Aston Martin DB9 So it's probably more of a GT car (Bently Continental GT, Ferrari 612 Scagelletti, Mercedes CL etc) than it is Performance car (360 Modena, 911, etc). The engine is likely a ~380hp 4.2 Liter similar to the Aston Martin Vantage V8 with the optional XKR sporting a supercharger in a 400-450hp guise. Should be a much more capable car than the previous XK which based on an almost 30-year-old platform.
