Aston Martin DB9

Aston Martin is an international brand synonymous with luxury, refinement, speed, power and quality. The Aston Martin DB9 upholds this tradition and is a credit to English engineering coupled with British styling and luxury. The DB9 is available in two models, the Coupe and the Volante and can be bought new from specialist appointed dealers or used from dealerships and private sellers. The Aston Martin DB9 was launched in 2004, however, a slight restyle was given early 2008 and is available with all the usual extras as well as being the only super car available with an optional smokers package.

Aston Martin Coupe

The DB9 coupe by Aston Martin was the first new production car to be built at their ultra modern factory facility in Graydon. The Aston Martin DB9 coupe was introduced to replace the DB7. Rumour has it that Aston believed it was such an advance on the older Martin DB7, they skipped out using DB8, however, the engine used is a V12 which is borrowed from the Vanquish, so using an eight could confuse people into thinking it was a V8 power plant in the Aston Martin Coupe.

Aston Martin Volante

The Volante is the convertible version of the DB9 by Aston Martin. Absolutely no compromise has been made concerning the luxury of the Aston Martin DB9 Volante when compared to its hard top sister model. Quite the opposite. The Aston Martin Volante is built by hand in very limited numbers. Again this model is built at the complex in Graydon and has the unmistakable charm and charisma of all the Aston Martins.

Aston Martin DB9 specifications

Both the coupe and the Volante come practically fully loaded, however, there are one or two specification extras available from Aston. Most of these are for the interior, but there are a few upgrades to the auto itself available, when you simply must have that personal touch added to your Aston Martin specifications.

Aston Martin performance

Those chosen car of the legendary super spy James Bond in Casino Royale, the DB9 is truly a super car in its own right. Statistical reviews differ slightly from the coupe to Volante, but all in all, when it comes to power and speed, you cannot knock the Aston's sublime mix of luxury and pace. Check out the Aston Martin performance.
