1997 - Aston Martin Db7 on 2040-cars
Hurt, Virginia, United States

A rare, timeless classic design, the DB7 i6 is said to have the purest lines of all the DB7 models with significantly lower maintenance costs than the V12. This car has been garaged for the past 10 years. Every repair and service document since 2004 comes with the car. Only 269 1997 DB7 i6 Volantes were brought into the US, and only an estimated 879 i6 Volantes were produced worldwide. Enhancements and features: Classic Gray leather interior with black piping Alcantara headliner Burl wood GT interior door pulls Half wood wheel and shift knob Dealer installed starter button Flush mounted Quicksilver exhaust to provide a little more aural authority Factory option 18” Speedline type 108 alloy wheels, rare and highly desirable Aston Martin valve caps Six cylinder supercharged developing 335 HP base, a tad more with the BBR upgrade and Quicksilver exhaust Stainless mesh upper and lower front grille GT strake Tonneau cover (useless, except for show) Extra headlight pod and Speedline wheel BBR stage 2 supercharger upgrade and ECU remap, one of a handful of cars in the U.S. with this upgrade. The upgrade changes the shift points to make them smoother and adds a few horsepower, essentially changing the car to more satisfactory level and making it the way it should have come out of the factory Impeccably well maintained This is a beautiful car with excellent mechanicals. All hoses have recently been replaced, rad core replaced. As with most low production Aston Martin cars, this one comes with its own unique set of quirks. The check engine light comes on when there’s nothing wrong. Transmission memory doesn’t take at startup and car needs to be turned off and restarted (rare). The window motors and control modules need replacing. This is not a concours car, it’s a car that has been driven and cared for.

Aston Martin to keep the faith with V12, manual transmission
Wed, Mar 11 2015Downsized engines and dual-clutch transmissions may be the way the industry is heading, but Aston Martin is more deeply rooted in the past than most. Which could explain at least in part why the British automaker is planning on sticking with V12 engines and manual transmissions for the foreseeable future. After speaking with Aston's new chief executive Andy Palmer at the Geneva Motor Show last week, Car and Driver reports that Gaydon is in no rush to get rid of the building blocks that have made it what it is today. And that means continuing to evolve its VH architecture, twelve-cylinder engine and six-speed manual gearbox. The company is working to develop a new platform and is collaborating on a new twin-turbo V8 with Mercedes-AMG. But those are still several years out, and Aston doesn't plan to wait that long before rolling out new models. Before the new AMG-powered Vantage is ready, C/D reports that Aston will introduce the replacement for the DB9 that will still be based on the VH platform and pack an evolution of the company's ubiquitous and long-serving 6.0-liter V12. "That platform was definitely far ahead of its time," Palmer told C/D. "It should have been described as a modular architecture, like [VW's] MQB or one of the other systems big manufacturers have adopted. We're always making excuses about it being an old platform, but if you were to compare the original VH platform to today's there's an enormous transformation. And it's a great way to build cars in the volumes that we do." The platform and the engine aren't the only old-school technologies Palmer is intent to keep. While Ferrari and Lamborghini do away with the manual altogether, and even Porsche goes PDK-only on the 911 GT3 and GT3 RS, Aston isn't giving up its clutch pedal any time soon. "I would love to be the last car manufacturer providing stick shifts in the U.S.," said Palmer. "That's my hope, we will keep the faith." Of course part of that could come down to Aston not having a dual-clutch transmission to offer, while its antiquated sequential gearbox lags behind the times. But it will likely gain access to Mercedes transmissions along with the engine deal.
All of the Bond cars of 'No Time To Die' (caution for spoilers)
Thu, Sep 30 2021Note: The following overview of the cars in No Time To Die contains spoilers. Read at your own risk, or come back after seeing the film to make sure you caught everything. No Time To Die picks up right around where Spectre leaves us. James Bond (Daniel Craig) and Madeleine Swann (Lea Seydoux) are driving along in Bonds restored and iconic DB5 in Matera, Italy. Things dont stay all that cheery for long in picturesque Matera, though. As is tradition in Bond films, the first car chase hits us with an explosion of action in what's a super-long opening scene. Fourth-gen Maserati Quattroporte: The baddies in the beginning are driving a Maserati and chasing after Bond in the DB5. Specifically, theyre in a fourth-gen Quattroporte, which feels right for a chase scene in Italy. Its squared-off looks are mean enough, and its Italian growl is a good background soundtrack to the DB5s inline-six. In addition to the Quattroporte, the chase scene in Matera is home to a couple of the best stunts of the entire movie, including the arch jump done with a Triumph motorcycle seen in trailers Matera is extremely hilly. Eventually, Bond and Swann find themselves in the DB5 again together, which is where the famous gatling gun scene from the trailer commences, but not before the bulletproof windows and body of the DB5 are thoroughly tested. RIP to the first-gen Range Rover Classics and Jaguar XFs that joined the Maserati in pursuit of Bond (here's a list of other Bond cars over the years). As the DB5 escape scene concludes, we catch a glimpse of what appears to be a Ferrari from the 1970s. However, the view was far enough away that well need a second look to be sure of the exact model. Land Rover Series III: Next time we see Bond, hes fishing in Jamaica and driving around a blue Land Rover Series III. Its yet another of the many Land Rover products featured throughout the film, and unlike most of Bonds Aston Martins, this one doesnt seem to have any unique features. The other intriguing vehicle out of Jamaica? An old Chevrolet Bel-Air expertly and effectively piloted by Bond newcomer, Ana de Armas. Next up, we get a few shots of the new and still-not-for-sale Aston Martin Valhalla mid-engine supercar (also seen in trailers). Bonds old boss M is in the scene which appears to have been shot in some secret wind tunnel of sorts. Much to our dismay, nobody ends up driving the Valhalla in the film. Could it be a teaser for what the next 007s car is?
