2011 Aston Martin DBS Consumer Reviews

I had a new AM Vanquish and traded “down” to the 9GT. The Vanquish was an excellent car, blindingly fast and a great mobile sculpture. But the 9GT seems to have more feel, more feedback and is simply more enjoyable to drive. The ground clearance seems better whereas in the Vanquish steep drives and speed bumps slowed me to a crawl .

Convertible that turns heads when driven down Rodeo! Engine sound is amazing. Owned by two local (elderly) ladies purchased and serviced by the same dealership in Beverly Hills. Like new inside and out.

Most perfect specimen ever found in an exotic car. Proud owner who enjoys the thrill. Photos taken constantly by on-lookers.

I bought my DB9 used for $60,000 with 21,000 miles. I have owned for 5 years and 42,000 miles later. Absolutely love the car still. Never stranded me and very reliable mechanically. Probably the best V12 normally aspirated engine ever made. Six speed ZF very solid but not a double clutch. Only major repair was new set of plugs and coils which requires pulling intake manifold. Was simple but very labor intensive. Other than that just routine maintenance items. Aston parts are expensive but well made and readily available. Styling inside and out is just fabulous. All leather interior so avoid parking in the sun. True sports car so not great for long trips or lots of luggage.

I have a couple nice cars and like the DB9 GT best. The exterior styling is eye-catching but not in an exotic, in-your-face fashion like a Mclaren, Ferrari, or Lambo. It drives wonderfully with a perfect blend of comfort and performance. The engine sound is thrilling. Everything about the car speaks Quality!

i got too many speeding tickets. lost my license. i drive much faster now.

Comfort, Speed, Reliability, Styling (it looks beautiful from every angle, the roar of the engine, admiring glances wherever I go (of the car rather than me unfortunately!!), exclusivity (only 3400 ever built). I do not drive like a lunatic and get a respectable 20.3 mpg. Thrash the Living Daylights out of it (please forgive the Bond reference) and you'll get 14 mpg. Limited numbers may well see it become a sought after classic in years to come (just my opinion of course). Buy one and you won't be disappointed.

A friend of mine owns one and would like to sell it to me for the amazing price of 40k I test drove it and it would make a wonderful daily if your willing to risk somthing breaking. (Very expensive parts.) much better than my old db7.
