Agreed, however it should be advertised as such, not as an all 'new' model. I just don't understand the point of it, there really isn't much of a gap in the market between the DBS and DB9, at least not enough to shoehorn a "new" model in between them. Would have much preferred them to do a major facelift on the now dated DB9.

Yeah we all agree it looks good, but it just looks like a very light DB9 facelift, i dont see the point there Aston. They should have bothered to change the exterior a bit to the point where you could actually say its a new model. They are going to charge me more for a car that looks just like the DB9, no thank you...

+1 I actually thought it was a facelift, and it if was it looked very sexy indeed. Could they really throw in another model to the mix?

It looks almost identical? Not that its a bad thing... just kind of wanted more of an evolution.
That or they might be trying to take on the 911 designers for "most lazy designer of the year" award? Sorry... Clarkson's words just came out through my hands there.
