Saw my first DBS today, in black.

I've not been a fan of the car to date, but there was something about it in black...seems to mask the odd creases in the front spoiler etc.

Still don't think I'd want one, but more impressed than I thought I'd be.

PS Am I the only one to dislike DB9 headlights? They'd look so much better with Vantage style indicators...

Agreed. It's the one failing on the DBS really. Imo for their topend car they should've upgraded these and added Vantage LEDs. This is my one worry about buying a DBS now, that we might see some kind of facelift soon. They're also incredibly poor as functional headlights (even worse than the Vantage's).

You're right jus. The only issue I have with my DB9 are the headlights. The functionality is poor which is not helped by the fact that they tend to mist up as well. I have complained to AM on a couple of occasions and they have changed the tissue membrane behind the modules but to no effect. I am even considering having Works Service build a couple of small zenons into the front spoiler.
