Description
With the return of James Bond in Casino Royale (2006), Aston Martin unveiled a brand new flagship model that became an instant classic. The Aston Martin DBS revived a nameplate from Aston Martin's past (itself a James Bond star) and became the car that would cement Aston's place at the top of the Supercar League table. Based on a heavily revised DB9, the DBS featured heavily revised bodywork, some of which was manufactured in carbon fibre, an uprated V12 producing 510hp and the first carbon ceramic brakes fitted to an Aston Martin.
All DBS are specified very well by the factory, however, the DBS Carbon edition is distinguished by a set of 10-spoke alloy wheels and standard black brake calipers, with yellow, orange, red, or grey calipers available as an option. Other features include a black grille, carbon fiber mirror heads, carbon rear lamp in-fills, and smoked rear lights.
The interior offers the "familiar swathes of obsidian black or maranello orange semi-aniline leather" which take about 70 man hours to hand stitch and finish. There are also magnesium alloy paddles tipped with carbon fiber and a unique carbon fiber special edition sill plaque with a laser etched metal inlay.
This stunning DBS Volante Carbon Edition is a 2012 model year car, finished in Ceramic Grey Metallic with Obsidian Black leather with contrasting Silver stitching. Having covered only 37,143 miles from new, comes with a full Aston Martin/Specialist service history. Our records show that only 845 DBS Volantes were built.
