I you are watching this topic, please bow our head for a minute of silence in order to comemorate this fantastic car

Yes, the DB7 was an absolutely beautiful car. The DB9 looks likes a worthy successor.

The end of DB7 signifies the beginning of the DB9. Both are very beautiful car, can't wait to see DB9 getting some screen time on top gear.
Any of you notice the V12 AML license plate on the car? Is that just a place holder or a legit uk plate owned by aston? Notice it was used during many reviews.

Cool picture. Kind of depressing though...last one. But I the DB9 looks so similar in my opinion to the previous model, so to me it's like we are getting the same car all over again.

One of my co-workers just got the factory literature on the DB9 (leather bound of course  ). The brochure and the car are simply amazing. I scanned most of it to use as desktop wallpaper.
