The Aston Martin DB9 Volante convertible is the modern-day version of James Bond's classic British sports car.
Stunning styling, sumptuous appointments, and a brawny 450-horsepower version of the 6.0-liter V12 engine make the Aston Martin DB9 Volante convertible one of the most desirable cars in the world. Top speed is in excess of 186 mph. Aston Martin's DB9 Volante convertible is one of the most beautiful cars in the world, with sleek exterior lines, balanced proportions, and longstanding British heritage.
The DB9 Volante convertible has a handsome aluminum body, arguably one of the most attractive around, with a broad front grille situated between large oval headlamps. Graceful curves run rearward over a long hood and culminate in a short deck. The windshield is steeply raked and the roofline is low. "Swan wing" doors (as opposed to Mercedes' "gullwing" version) open slightly upward to ease entry and exit, and prevent the doors from swinging open too far and getting dinged.
Did you know: The "DB" in DB9 stands for David Brown, who owned Aston Martin throughout much of its glory days.
Ford sold its majority stake in Aston Martin to a group of investors in March 2007.
