Production Aston Martin DBS unveiled

Aston Martin has revealed the production version of its new DBS coupe. A concept was revealed roughly 16 months ago, followed by an appearance in the James Bond film Casino Royale.


The production car will go on sale in early 2008, with the first public unveiling taking place this week at the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance.

The DB9's 6.0 liter V12 finds a new home in the DBS, albeit with more power. Output is rated at 510 horsepower and 420 pound-feet of torque.

Slightly lighter than a DB9 at 3,737 lbs, the DBS rockets to 62 mph in a claimed 4.3 seconds. A top speed of 191 mph should satisfy most Autobahn cruisers.

Carbon ceramic brakes and foot-wide Pirelli tires keep all the power in check.

When unveiling the concept version last year, CEO Ulrich Bez said the DBS "is not of the understated elegance of a DB9, nor the youthful agility of the V8 Vantage. It is explosive power in a black tie and has its own unique character which will equal that of James Bond."
