Aston Martin DBS

While we, the United States, sit in a recession, some of us (not sure who) might have $270,000 burning a hole in their pocket and would like to buy the very slick, James Bond car, the Aston Martin DBS. The price is cheap….for some probably! It is said that approximately 300 people will buy this car this year. Crazy to think that 300 people have the burning hold in their pockets, but I guess it’s true.
Here are some of the specs of the Aston Martin DBS. It has a V-12, 5.9-liter engine with 510-horsepower. It can go from 0 to 60 in 4.2 seconds with a top speed of 191 mph. That’s fast! The DBS has a 1000 watt Bang & Olufsen sound system.
The Aston Martin DBS’s top rival is the Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano. This car has a 612-horsepower, so if you want more power, I guess you would choose the Ferrari. The cost is more at $310,000 and according to Lawrence Ulrich of the New York Times News Service, the Ferrari cannot beat the looks of the Aston Martin DBS. So, for those of you car lovers that need to splurge, go and become one of the 300 proud owners of a new Aston Martin DBS.
