Overview Information
The DB9 is a British-built sports car produced in limited numbers for exclusivity. The DB9 'Volante' convertible features sleek exterior styling and an interior hand built to customer requirements. A power-operated top allows quick transitions to open-air motoring. It is powered by a 6.0-litre, 470hp V12 coupled through a manual or automatic six-speed transmission to the rear wheels. An all-aluminum structure reduces weight and helps to ensure exhilarating performance. With pricing in excess of $170,000, the DB9 Volante has few equals.
What Changed:
A revised V12 engine now produces 470-bhp and 443 lb-ft of torque.
