Aston Martin Unveils the DBS Volante

Last year’s DBS put some muscle into the Aston Martin line, with class, of course. This year, the sport coupe lets its hair down, with a soft top that retracts in 14 seconds, in mid flight if necessary. A 6.0 V12 transmits an impressive 510 horsepower to a top speed of 190 mph. A 6-speed manual transmission is standard, and carbon fibre styling keeps the DBS light in transit.

Want more for your base price of $270,000 from one of England’s luxury vehicle masters? Picky, picky. OK, how about carbon-ceramic ABS brakes with Dynamic Stability Control to slow you down after a 0 to 62 mph jog in 4.3 seconds? Or a Bang & Olufsen stereo system that automatically compensates for top-down listening? 20″ alloy wheels shoed with Pirelli custom tires? Integrated iPod dock and compatible USB and 3.5mm socket? Automatic temperature – controlled environment with heated, fully-adjustable seats, and GPS navigation? Find them here.
