How it Drives
Among the super rich, Porsche, Mercedes-Benz and even Ferrari cars are a dime a dozen. But, if you're looking for sleek 2+2 with that added air of exclusivity, Aston Martin's 2012 DBS and DBS Volante
When it comes to horsepower and handling, there are other coupes and convertibles that outshine the 2012 Aston Martin DBS, and some even cost less.
Dashing to 60 mph in a scant 4.3 seconds makes the 2012 Aston Martin DBS a few tenths of a second quicker than its DB9 stablemate, but it's the standard 6-speed manual transmission that makes the DBS the superior driver's car.

"the db9 is a true gentlemens sports car with the looks and power but none of the yelling like an annoying ferrari... the db9 unlike the dbs is very loose and relaxing and stiff when required. for the kind of driving i do (city) it is truly incredible!!!!!!!!!"
