wouldn't mind an Aston Martin looking car being powered by a Corolla engine. Can't go fast in van anyways!

Might as well just close the Aston Martin down and let it leave behind a great legacy. Its better than having Toyota wreck it.

Which is based on the e-class.

Chrysler owned Lamborghini at one point in time. The Diablo was made during their ownership.
Ford tried to purchase Ferrari in the 60s. Purcahse didn't go through, and ford made the legendary GT40 instead.
Ford purchased Aston Martin in the past during the Naser years(a series of retarded purchases and terrible management that drove Ford to the ground and they are just now recovering from it.)

It is not as big as a deal you made it out to be.
