Coming to a City Near You: Aston Martin DBS Carbon Black Edition
Autoblog wrote:If you've been waiting patiently – even not so patiently – to get your hands on the new Carbon Black edition of the Aston Martin DBS, you'll still have to wait until the summer to take delivery. Oh, and a trunk full of hundred-dollar bills. But if all you want is to catch a glimpse, we've got good news for you. Because no matter where you are in the continental United States, chances are there's a DBS Carbon coming to a city near you.

In a special demonstration organized by Aston's exclusive audio partner Bang & Olufsen – which furnishes the 13-speaker, 1000-watt sound system in the DBS – a pair of the special Carbon Black editions will be touring America. Along their route, they'll be hitting New York, Washington, Miami, Dallas, Chicago, San Francisco and LA. So unless you live in Oregon, you're covered.

If you do swing by a local Aston dealer when the Carbon Black editions are in town, you'll see a pair of DBS coupes with a special-process black flick paint and an interior with carbon-Kevlar seats covered in black leather with silver stitching, along with special wheels and badging.
I'd take this over the One-77 every day of the week. and thrice on Sunday. :pimp:

That's hot though.

If I wanted to spend a few hundred k on a car, I'd start with the DB9 Coupe and work my way up from there. I love Astons.

Here's a DBS in action. Feel free to drool.

Btw I think the guy who is rumored to be the Stig (Ben Collins) was Bond's stunt driver in this clip.

I like the "entry level" Aston DB9 and Lambo Gallardo better than their more expensive siblings. I guess if i had that kind of scratch I could get a nice stereo and paint job like the Carbon Black Edition, eh? :lol:
