After looking for a decent DB9.2 or DB9 GT Volante almost two years now in Switzerland without success, I recently removed some search filters and came across two cars which are priced similarly. I swear I already browsed the relevant sections in the bible (or the definitive guide) several times and I am aware that the DBS even has lower torque than the DB9.2 and the Vanquish is still 6-speed auto, however the bible also tells me that the 8-speed lost some comfort due to a stiffer damper setup.

This would be my second car and used for pure GT purposes (holidays, roadtrips to Austria/Germany etc.). I therefore do value ride comfort pretty high, but also am keen to have some nice sounds when pushing the throttle biggrin My previous GT car was a V8 BMW 6series. I am adoring Aston Martin since decades, but never had the courage to pull the trigger on one, maybe now? Please find the links to the two beauties below, any feedback most welcome, especially on the differences between those two (already fallen in love with the colour combination of the DBS though):
