The DBS was powered by a development of the 6.0-litre, 48-valve, V12 engine found in other Aston Martin models, producing 510bhp initially, an output sufficient to propel the aerodynamic coupé to a top speed of 305km/h (190mph) in manual transmission form, with 60mph attainable from a standing start in a neck-snapping 4.3 seconds. The aluminium engine was mounted as far back as possible in the chassis while the transmission/final drive was combined in a rear transaxle, resulting in 85% of the car's mass being sited between the axles and a perfect 50/50 front/rear weight distribution, with commensurate benefits to handling, roadholding, and controllability.
Transmission options were a six-speed manual or six-speed 'Touchtronic 2' paddle-shift semi-automatic, while the striking 20" wheels were considered by some to be the best looking on any Aston Martin.
Inside the DBS one finds the typically elegant, luxurious and supremely comfortable hand crafted interior traditionally associated with Aston Martin, featuring primarily wood and leather trim as well as the latest in modern technology, subtly deployed. Production ceased in 2012 with the DBS Ultimate: a limited run of 100 cars available in either coupé or Volante convertible forms. Adding some £10,000 to the cost of an 'ordinary' DBS, the Ultimate package included a choice of Quantum Silver, Silver Fox or Carbon Black II paint finishes together with a host of cosmetic enhancements to the bodywork and a choice of three colours for the brake calipers.
Interior features included diamond-quilted leather seats, Alcantara headlining, carbon fibre fascia, and 'DBS Ultimate' badging; all of which brought the list price up to just short of £187,000.
Built to Swiss specifications, the DBS Ultimate we offer was ordered new by the current vendor and delivered via Aston Martin Geneva in November 2012. Finished in Quantum Silver, the car comes with copies of a Swiss Carte Grise and Aston Martin's invoice, which includes details of various upgrades made to the interior at the owner's request, including a re-trim in Chancellor Red leather. The final price was CHF302,150 (the equivalent of approximately £203,000 at that time). This most beautiful of modern Aston Martins has been kept on static display since acquisition and will require recommissioning before returning to the road.
