Thats absolutely stunning, great spot!! For me theres a slight niggle with it and that's the chrome stip above the rear lights. It just doesn't look right to me, best with out I reckon - IMHO of course.

Great spot - i'm dead against using a phone will driving, but a camera is fine ;-)

I saw a pre-production DBS when i was at gaydon last and I thought it looked great then....this might be a bad angle, but anyone else think that this looks a little "halfords"?

Yup.

For such an elegant base car, I think this looks very ham fisted.

Not a single one of the changed aesthetic details that's an improvement IMO.

Surely someone would be able to produce/sell the external differences (ie body kit) for a standard DB9? I'm not usually one for body kits, but this looks quite nice.

Just received a letter inviting me to the DBS launch at the Frankfurt auto show for a private viewing on 18th September. Should be good biggrin

Is this essentially a DB9 Vantage? It doesn't look significantly different enough to be a whole new model.

As for the looks I gues sit is each to their own, but the standard car is more delicate to my mind. This looks particularly heavy, especially around the sills at the rear arches.
