Owned my DB9 Volante for three years now. Decided to take the plunge to a DBS. Have always loved the looks and now having driven cannot believe the difference. Hopefully arrives next week.

I had read on here about the difference from the DB9, but thought it was perhaps just a bit of exaggeration. It just seemed to want to be driven harder, was more eager. I guess just a combination of the improved suspension, higher geared steering, the weight and engine. Didn't expect it to be so stark.

Cannot wait to pick up.

Stunning! Congrats! Love the diamond cut wheels.. Wish my DBS had them. What color is your DBS?

I took the same plunge earlier this year. Just sold my DB9. Very hard to part with as its been a labor of love for many years but the DBS is fantastic.

Its Grigio Titanio. Which is a Ferrari colour apparently. I havent seen it before but dealer reckons AM use it quite a lot.

Looks lovely though. He was telling me AM are trying to stock showrooms with brighter coloured cars now so people dont always order50 shades of grey.

Yes to all of the above. One of my favourite colours.

And to the stocking of brighter/different colours this is definitely something that AM Bristol also told me they are wanting to do.
