Specter & Specter Custom Appreciation Thread


Ayylien

Recommended Posts

From videos I've seen I love the engine note but I just can't get over the design of the car itself, in my opinion the Seven-70 is better in pretty much every aspect (because they look so similar but that being said, all the Dewbauchee cars look the same to an extent), probably because this car just looks so smooth but who knows, maybe I'll learn to love it eventually. The Specter also looks way better than the custom, what's the performance like?

Yeah, I'm amazed Rockstar can make Aston Martins look so dull looking (the front at least), they got it right in IV with the Super GT.

Performance wise, it's quick. It'll likely be the new Sports class king.

Polarizing car i guess, for me i love my seven70 and the specter is just more evolved into curvy-ness.

Well one slot is reserved for it on my dewbauchee deck anyway.

Hmm, I think it's just a nod to Aston Martin. Ah, the Super GT - miss that car.

Hot damn, this is more along the lines of how I wanted the 770 to have turned out, definitely will be replacing my 770 with this one. Hoping it's part of the next batch of cars released.

 

Really diggin the look of the custom version.

This is just another disappointing Aston in my eyes, first the 7-70 with a Ferrari front and now this with a Porsche front.

Shame.

Holy crap. Has anyone heard the start up noise? The thing literally roars like a lion or tiger. I'd definitely pay 599,000 just for that sound. It's orgasmic. Listen closely in the video below at around 3:46. Its start up sound is right up there with the Mamba and Stirling GT.

Yup. As Spectacus said "tfw the ass in a 9 but the face is a 1" the front just ruins the car. There's nothing even remotely British about it, it looks awful. Look Dewbauchee is not Aston Martin, we know this, but they parody Aston Martin so they should be similar especially when it comes to the front. No road-going Aston Martin from this decade is without that trademark Aston grill, even the DB10 has it in its own way. This just has something slapped on from a 918 Spyder that would've looked perfect on the 811 actually, which was another one of their screw ups.

 

The rear might look beautiful, the side might look great and it might handle great but the front looks terrible. And one thing I love about all Astons is the front, they just have a stance to them. This car looks stupid and childish in the front. Not even menacing or stealthy.

 

As with all cars I'll test it in creator but I won't buy it. I'll probably just take it for a joy ride and enjoy it from the back. Damn, it even has a unique interior. This thing had everything going for it...

 

As for a request, I'll keep it simple:

- a medium silver with an ice white pearlescent

- stock rims

- lowest tint

- daytime

Not sure exactly, the top is one of the metal colours with an ice white pearl. Second one is cabernete or garnet red with with Torino red pearl.

The front looks like a Carbonizzare/Verlierer and the back looks like the Seven 70.

 

Pass, my Seven 70 is good enough for me.

Whoever works on the Dewbauchee models is a complete f*cking idiot. The Aston Martin grill is a hallmark of these cars. Too exclude it is an insult. There are other ways of doing car mashups that don't ruin an entire aspect of the cars you trying to mimic.

Disappointed with this, looks rather awkward as a plain car so custom look with spoiler is the way to go. Think I'll skip this one

Looks beautiful, I'll have to wait and see for myself but from these pics it's a stunner. The front of the car looks fine to me and better looking than the Seven-70.

 

Bit of a crap Bond film that it's named after but hey it makes sense.

Hope it performs. The vehicles from this update so far have all looked fantastic, with half being amongst the best performers in their class, and half not really being race viable.

I still don't f*cking get why they feel the need to mix two different car brands together everytime they design a car. Why not just use two or more cars of the SAME BRAND. Mixing Lambo with Pagani then mixing Pagani with Ferrari, Ferrari with McLaren, Aston with Ferrari, Aston with Porsche, McLaren with Saleen (?!?!)

 

Why?

 

Why?Why?Why?

This was the car I was posting looking forward to but how the tables have turned. I have a huge grille fetish, I love big mean grilles. Grilles that look like menacing smiles, grilles that look like they want to murder. The grille, in my opinion is a huge part of Aston and it really made the DB10 look as iconic as it does.

The designers had a predator in mind when creating the Aston, to fit Craig's gritty and ruthless Bond. They chose a shark, and it really shows through, the DB10 has a presence, it looks like it wants to chop you into lots of tiny pieces which I like.. a lot.

This car looks like it couldn't hurt a fly, a huge disappointment in my books, I still think it looks gorgeous in its own rights and I will be getting it, it just isn't an Aston Martin.

An Aston often gets identified by its grille, it is synonymous by it, yet the designers keep failing to achieve that, they've all looked to weak; like hairdresser's sports cars.

I believe it has become its trademark. If you look at a car like the Spyker C8 and the Bentley Speed 6 concept, sure you see a lot of AM in its body shape but what stand out are its huge angry grilles, something Aston has colonised.

 

Sorry for being a little bitch but I like Aston a lot, watching Bond movies as a kid made it my poster car. To give it a Porsche grille, a German grille at that; ICH BIN SAUER! just works against everything it means in terms of design.

Knew this would be based off the DB10 the instant I laid eyes on the 'leaked' list a week or so back. The DB10 still hasn't won me over 100%, but I'll give the Specter a look as it's different in subtle ways.

Having a Custom variant seems weird. Why spoil a good shape by bolting bits onto it?

You pretty much hit the nail on the head Arthur, the DB10's front looks like the kind of thing you'd be terrified of seeing float towards you while swimming while the Spectre looks a bit like it's just ate something a bit sour.

I don't mind them basing cars on various real cars, but just wish they were more logical with the cars they chose.

 

Like, I wouldn't mind them mixing Astons with Jaguars and Maseratis.

 

It just pains me that we havn't seen a Dewbauchee with a nice front end since the Super GT in GTA IV.
