Its Final Aston Martin sold for $925M - NJFBOA - Home of New Jersey's Camaros and Firebirds

Aston is now sold to a consortium comprised of Prodrive founder David Richards, Aston collector John Sinders, and a Kuwaiti investment firm Dar and Adeem Investment Company for $925 Million.

This looks like a win win situation to me. Things can only go up for Aston with Prodrive's expertise, and Ford will still be supplying Aston Martin with parts and a much needed cash infusion.
