The DBS is equipped with an all-aluminum 6.0-liter V-12 hand built engine. The DBS produces 510 bhp at 6500 rpm. As it should, comes with a manual transmission mounted out back, right in front of the rear axle. This affords two benefits: more leg space for the driver and passenger and better weight distribution. Aston Martin considers the DBS a "mid-front engine" design. A large metal shift knob operates the 6-speed gearbox. This serves to let everyone know that the driver is in charge of controlling the engine-to-wheel speed ratio in this vehicle. The transmission shifts very easily and positively, with short and light throws. As we are fond of all things light, the chassis is made of multiple pieces of cast, extruded and pressed aluminum that are bonded together to form a lightweight and rigid structure. Carbon fiber is used liberally throughout the car, for both function and style. The driveshaft, door handles, front fascia, hood, door surrounds, diffuser, boot lid and boot enclosure are all made of carbon fiber, while the rest of the bodyshell is aluminum. In all, the DBS weighs 3480 lb., giving it a very favorable power-to-weight ratio.
This pristine handpicked example, offered by Gator Motorsport, has been meticulously cared for. With extremely low mileage, this vehicle is in excellent condition and has not seen any paint or body work and has no imperfections. This vehicle is as clean as, or cleaner than when it was delivered new. Available in 27 colors, Casino Royale is by far one of the best, and most established colors with a rich heritage. The interior of the DBS comes in Obsidian Black with Alacantara Semi-Aniline Leather Seat Trim. The seat bolsters show no wear and the carpets are in excellent condition. The front bumper, bonnet, side skirts, rear quarters, and rear bumper are all protected by a clear bra. All four wheels are in excellent condition with no scrapes. The vehicle comes with two keys and original owner's manual.

Aston Martin and Mercedes-AMG formalize technical partnership
Thu, 19 Dec 2013The development of a partnership between Mercedes-Benz and Aston Martin has been a long time coming. The news dates back to 2008, and over the five years since was supposed to lead to a rejuvenation of both the Maybach and Lagonda brands. That program ultimately fell apart, but the tie-in was forged afresh in July when the two automakers signed a letter of intent over a renewed partnership. And now that partnership has been formalized.
In a deal just announced, Mercedes-AMG will build a new V8 engine for Aston Martin that will power a new generation of luxury GTs for the British marque, presumably to replace the 4.7-liter V8 in the Vantage. The relationship appears to be similar to the one already in place between AMG and Pagani, only in this case, will involve Daimler taking as much as a five-percent stake in Aston Martin and an observer seat on Aston's board.
The technical partnership is also set to lead to the supply of electric and electronic systems, and could incorporate "additional areas of cooperation in the future." Whether that will include a fresh attempt at reviving Lagonda remains to be seen, as does the future of Aston's long-serving, Ford-based 6.0-liter V12 engine. But for now you can read the full announcement below.
Supercar parade entering highway is mesmerizing
Thu, 09 May 2013In what must have looked and sounded to motorists on the M6 like an invasion of The Swarm, a parade of 50 enthusiast gems leaving a charity event were caught shooting down the on-ramp and merging into traffic. There were plenty of Porsches joining the 959 and Ducktail above, Aston Martins going back to the badboy V8 of the last millennium, a Ferrari Testarossa, a TVR and numerous other Easter eggs.
There were not, however, plenty of turn signals, with someone counting just five among the fifty engaging in proper use of the blinker. One reason put forth for that is the same reason we're posting this video, which is from last Summer, below: "because supercar." Enjoy.
AMG's partnership with Aston Martin won't extend past engines, for now
Sun, 27 Apr 2014There's been talk of late about the technical partnership between Aston Martin and the AMG division of Mercedes-Benz going beyond engines to include Mercedes sports car and SUV platforms for the English brand, perhaps as a way to kickstart the development of a Lagonda SUV. But AMG CEO Tobias Moers, speaking to Top Gear, said that's effectively out of the question because, "No one has the time to discuss any more involvement than that for now."
Moers believes Aston Martin will be so busy "for the next two to three years" integrating its AMG-sourced engine and electronics that it won't have the resources to devote to working out a platform-sharing deal; Daimler sources have already said that Aston Martin's development budget "just isn't enough" to even consider a whole new model, and that greater cooperation would require something like a larger ownership stake in the boutique sports car maker.
AMG, in the meantime, is busy with the recent launch of the GLA45 AMG, the coming C63 AMG and its rumored 4.0-liter V8, the Mercedes-AMG GT and its assault on the Porsche 911 among who-knows-what other skunkworks projects. Moers said the technical partnership is about profit for AMG, clear and simple, and, "All these rumors about platform sharing are nice but no one at Aston or Mercedes has the time to discuss them."
