At a mind boggling $265,000 the Aston Martin DBS is sure to inspire awe at the very least. When is comes to super exotic luxury sports cars, the Aston Martin DBS is in rare air. It racks up more then 500hp along with a whopping 429 ft lbs of torque. It tops out at over 191 mph without any modifications to its ECU or engine for that matter. It has styling that's years beyond the DB9. It is certainly a vehicle to take notice of.
The Aston Martin DBS was first brought before the general public in the feature motion picture Casino Royale. In the James Bond movie, the DBS depicted within the film is actually just a modified DB9 since the DBS super car was still in its developmental stage. Some may ask, "What is the big difference between a DB9 and a DBS?" There is quite a big difference indeed.
The Aston Martin DBS is built on the same platform as the Vanquish. The DBS weighs more then 400 lbs less then the DB9. Not only that is produces 60 Horsepower more. With composite ceramic brakes and F-1 style transmission, if you really take a close look, you will see that the DBS is a world apart from the DB9.
The DBS has been fitted with what Aston Martin calls an Adaptive Damping System. This system has five different settings to adjust the car's ride and handling characteristics somewhat similar to the I-drive feature found in BMW's M6. In the summer of 2008, the new Aston Martin DBS is sure to make a big splash in the sports car world.
