Standard Suspension on an 08 glass key db9...

[karatemaserati]

Looking at an 08 glass key db9 which HASN'T got sportspack alloys...

...But as I understand the glass key came with some of the suspension revisions from the sportspack as standard??

What do I need to make it sportspack?

Thanks for any light you can shed

If I haven't posted it before, this is a very detailed description: https://aston1936.com/2019/03/12/aston-martin-db9-...

Mine (2007) has the sports pack. If you want to swap suspension parts, drop me a line because I find the ride too firm.

If the DB9 with regard to SportsPack, is similar to a Vantage, then drive a DB9 on a badly maintained road surfaces, before making up your mind.

My Vantage without SportsPack, has very firm suspension.
Don't want it any harder.

If roads were perfectly smooth everywhere then yes, SportsPack would be ideal.

Do the 08 DB9s have Bilstien dampers?
