2007 Aston Martin DB9 Reviews, Pricing & Specs
Write a review
The Aston Martin DB9 will return largely unchanged for this model year with respect to its appearance, but 2007 begins a new era for the British automaker. Aston Martin has revolutionized its production process, relocating to a new technologically advanced assembly plant in Gaydon, England.
Like many of the products from the exclusive British marques, Aston Martin cars are individually handcrafted. While the new DB9 looks very similar to the the previous DB7, Aston Martin touts the car as "new from the ground up." Both the coupe and the Volante convertible variation are built upon a special new chassis, specifically created for GT performance, which uses an incredibly light bonded aluminum construction. Other panels and parts are built from the same aluminum, or in some cases, lightweight magnesium alloy. The result is a remarkably light weight weight for this well-equipped V12-powered sports car.
The two available models are the DB9 coupe and DB9 Volante convertible. Each is powered by a 6.0-liter, all-aluminum V12 that produces 450 horsepower and 420 pound-feet of torque. The DB weighs just over 3,700 pounds, and boasts one of the highest power-to-weight ratios in its very exclusive class. Both DBs can be had with six-speed automatic or six-speed manual transmission. The automatic transmission version gets steering wheel-mounted paddle shifters. The most direct competitor for the DB9 is probably the Bentley Continental GT. The Mercedes SL is far more affordable.

performance is awsome!! acceleratin is unbeliveable for 450hp. braking is great for emergencies. and has a suspention that is smooth and very responsive with that sport car feel. interior is great and better than any other super-car interior. controls are easy and the sun don't get in your eyes when being reflected off. this car will last a life time likfe for 15years at least which is a lot for a car. and by then you would already have the car payed off by 10years if you would be planning on paying the same amount for a new infiniti g with no options. maintenance is realy good. we wanted to make sure that the car is safe so one thing that we added to the car was on-star, adaptive criuse control, adaptive xeon headlight (which are stanrd but they're not adaptive), lane departure system, review camera, adaptive high beam xeon fog- lights, intelegent advanced all-wheel-drive (intelegent advanced AWD), first aid kit, side and knee and advanced 8 airbag system(that includes the knee and side), side blind zone alert, voice recognized tecnollogy, heated seats, and lifetime warrenty. the car never needed any repairs, gas mileage comes and goes but its better than what audi a4 is it seems. car sounds great although dont be scared by the sound of the engine starting. and with the 700watt crystal clear surround system made by bang and olufensen i never heard/felt any rattles nor squeeks, even with the surround sound on. this cars surround sound is amazing. with meadian and high rang of great detail that never squeels in your ears or is covered by the auto-bass and terb. with the sub.Nov 13, 2009

As a child I always was fascinated by Aston martin, the design is so timeless it reminds me of another great Icon of British Engineering, the Spitfire. It's comfortable comes with a built in GSM connection in the radio, and GPS navigation. The best part of owning a Db9 is that it turns heads everywhere you go.

Simply an amazing car and a dream come true to drive an Aston. The sound of that engine and the feeling you get when you're driving an Aston will be with me forever.
It's a six litre monster and I agree with Clarkson that you could drive it to the south of France, realise you've forgotten your swimming shorts, drive all the way home to get them and be more than happy to do so!Sep 21, 2008

Awesome Motor. Excellent accelaration, superb handling.
Looks beautiful, SOunds superb.
Absolutely loved driving it and can't wait to drive another one.
Guzzles petrol due to the 6 litre, V8, 48 Valve, 535Bhp engine that can top 189 mph, but if you can afford one of these, you can definately afford to run it. Sep 01, 2008

Where do I begin? It's a freaking Aston Martin! There's a reason why these cars are $185,000 and up. The performance is second to none. I took this car out for a spin when I was in Vegas and this blew the Quaddroporte out of the water. Most fun I've had in a car...and the fastest I've gone...175 down I-15, on the edge of the strip. The seats are very comfortable, and it has all the perks; navi, hud, push start ignition(which makes you feel like awesome when you push the button and you hear that V-10 shutter to life)
It's a looker. Most people haven't seen one up close, and its very awe-inspiring.Aug 06, 2008

Well, I finally bought my Aston! What a beauty she is, until Jhonny crashed it, slight damage to the front, but should be out of the bodyshop towards the end of next week. Everything about the car is 110%. Can't rate them high enough!!! I'm now broke, but hey, you're only here once, right?Jul 10, 2008

I test drove a previously-owned DB9 at an Aston Martin dealership in Virginia ... That drive turned out to be one of my favorite experiences ... ever ... The vehicle had about 5K miles on it and was in very pristine order, save a nick on the driver's interior door handle. (though very tiny, it did annoy me a bit). The car got off the line much quicker than expected ... or maybe just quicker than what I am used to. Gently depressing the accelerator was enough to "shoot off" from any stopping point. The brakes were solid, as expected. The vehicle was fun to drive and I smiled the entire time, as I was barely listening to the sales specialist who was explaining the features of the DB9. Handling was crisp and instilled confidence in the corners. After about 10 minutes or so, we returned to the dealership. Besides the painted "aluminum look" trim, the Linn sound system on this particular DB9 was not working ... at all. My understanding is that the 08-09MY vehicles have Alpine systems. Perhaps to fix quality issues?
All-in-all, I loved my experience. I've wanted to own a DB9 since its debut. Upon its arrival, I instantly fell in love with the exquisite styling, the interior warmth, the sound of the engine and the better build quality than its predecessors ... all making it my ultimate dream GT vehicle. Being aware of the old saying, "Never Meet Your Heroes", I was a bit leery of driving it ... I had high hopes and expectations, and as it turned out, there was no need to fret.May 23, 2008
