Whilst it would be easy to look at the DBS as a DB9 with a bodykit, the DBS replaced the Vanquish as the halo model for the marque, and is a greatly evolved and improved offering. Extensive use of carbon fibre adds a menacing twist to the otherwise elegant form. The bonnet, bootlid, wings and doors are made from carbon fibre save 30kg with a further 12.5kg saved from the introduction of carbon fibre brakes as standard. Weight savings totalled 65kg with a wealth of other materials reworked and lightened in the process.
The 6.0-litre V12 is reworked too; larger inlet ports and higher compression ratio saw the engine gain a considerable 60 bhp to 510 bhp. The six-speed manual transmission saw a reduced final drive with the headlining 0-60 sprint taking just 4.3 seconds and the top speed, a heady 191mph.
Piloted by James Bond in the 2007 thriller Casino Royale, the DBS was introduced with three new colours, Lightning Silver, Casino Royale and Storm Black.
