Can't deny its nice, I just don't see why it needs to be marketed as a new model. James Bond should drive a AMV8 IMO...

I think that's phenomenal. It's all of the elegance and sexiness of the DB9, except with more aggression. I love it. images/smilies/wub.gif

Suede, stitching, rampant crystal, red lights, and scoops all over. It looks like Pimp My Ride went halfway through a makeover before the spirit of Ian Fleming shot them. Vulgar, in a word, maybe for a 21st century bond, but...ugh.

Probably Aston's V12, but don't quote me on that.

I really like the interior with the alcantara(?) leather on the dash - that's truly classy!

The exterior is pretty awesome, but I like the interior the most - how sexy is that black alcantara? Very!

could it be the DBS??(the interior fully loaded with alcantara feels more "race" too )

there is no streetlegal version of the DBR9 or DBRS9 ..

the BDS is just a replacemen for the Vanquish

Yes perhaps I got my wires crossed, i was under the impression the DBRS9 was a road going trackcar version of the full racing DBR9 (a porsche GT3 to the 911 type thing)
