Aston Martin DBS
The DBS is basically a sportier version of the DB9. Though its engine boasts the same displacement, it produces 510 horsepower, 40 more than the DB9. Besides several aesthetic differences, the DBS’s body contains several pieces made from composite materials and carbon fibre so as to reduce weight. Available with a soft electrically controlled roof, the DBS is much sought-after by fans of exclusive cars. This Aston Martin is already a classic.
