Virage vs DB9.2

[mikey k]

Mooching around I notice the Virages are starting to come up used and was wondering what the differences are?
I can see they are 20 ponies down and IIRC get steel rather than CCM brakes?
Any other differences?

[whoami]

Only 2 stage damping on the Virage.

Found a few
No high boot spoiler on the Virage
Virage has the DBS engine in the new lower position of the DB9.2
The DB9.2's AM 11 engine actually has quite a long list of mods but only gains 20 BHP
I suspect releasing the 45 BHP from the detune wouldn't be too hard for those that know

Burning the midnight oil pondering your next steed.. No bad thing
I think you have pretty much got the lot, as you know the 13MY DB9 is simply an evolution of the Virage, adding....
New pedestrian impact protection system to the front end ( sliding grille etc) with lower engine and new brace.
Enhanced rigidity.
Larger rear spoiler.
AM11 engine + 20bhp, but also a much larger leap in torque of + 37lb ft with enhanced low end delivery.
3-Stage ADS
Auto wipers and lights ( plus reversing camera US only)
New options.

The Virage has CCMs.

Yup the reversing camera was a new factory option for the 13MY in the UK

edited to add....... the list above was standard equipment variances to the Virage and the camera is only standard in US/Canada, it's an option over here

Makes a Virage look well priced then

Yes I obviously missed the fact that it cost me the other arm and leg to option the reverse cam LOL
