Hello and Happy New Year folks. I tried to search this forum for things like "DB9 replacement" and "DB10" but had no luck.

Sorry if this have been done to death (and I was too stupid to find the threads when searching) but I was just wondering what popular opinion says about the likely timing of a replacement for the DB9.

I considered buying a DB9 last year but decided not to as I thought I may prefer to wait to see what replaces it.

Many thanks,
Gixxer

I doubt that AM will come clean anytime soon, rather like the denials around a V12V Roadster, which I bet will happen. My guess on DB9 would be 2012 launch, after a range of DB9 special editions. Anyone else got a thought?

Good question and similar questions being asked about the Conti GT and Gallardo which both appeared in 2004 along with the DB9 i believe. I would also be apprehensive in buying new if a new model was around corner but there has not been any leaks whatsoever about a DB9/ContiGT/Gallardo replacement.

Very good point. Should be some interesting new metal coming out at some point.

Cheers.

Its 6 years old at the moment, the DB7 was in production from 1994 to 2003 (or early 2004?), so I'd say 2012 would be likely.
