"Used" DBS Up For Sale
I can't believe somebody would already be dumping one of these. Such a crime. :( Maybe it was a tester for a dealer?

575 miles? That's still new, it has even been broken in. The DBS is a big improvement.
|
Hmmm......
MSRP on these initial cars is $268k; there aren't any options. 'Think this is a "flipper" trying to make a buck.
|
That is only 8-10k over MSRP + Tax. For a car that was supposed to have a 2 year waiting list, that seems pretty cheap. It is a gorgeous car. Tough to believe it won't depreciate like every other Aston but I love it.
|
I've had several dealers say sales are down; tough on the newer high end market; used is full of low ball lookers. Your stable has probably droppped in value too (which sucks) ... especially w/new "improved" Italian models out about every 3-4 years. I'm thinking this DBS is a flip too. P-cars are totally tanking ... can not believe their SUV is outselling their cars !!! I just enjoy them and consider it entertainment expense.

There is a whole population of "renters" who buy these ultra-exclusive cars at debut knowing they're going to have them for a summer or a short period and flip them while the buzz is still hot. We saw the same thing with the first 997 gt3 rs and Gallardo SL cars. Really this is not a bad price, but I have to think that you could get a better color at the same price if you hunt the dealerships. I hear there has been some fall off on some waiting lists. I know there are car people who sprinkle money in deposit form every time they hear of a new cool car then move it to the next car when news hits. I'm sure there were deposits moving to Ferrari California or Audi R8 V10 and so on. Having driven the DBS, its hard to imagine a more overall satisfying car. The combination of looks, style, speed and finish is second to none. I've never driven a 599, but at double the price, I think the DBS is a bargain

These cars are now selling FOR MSRP. The market has evaporated.
There are at least 6 new, untitled cars sitting at dealerships around the USA that can be had for immediate delivery. Speculators are going to get burned for this one. |

It's a feeding frenzy. Everybody who is anybody wants one and the opportunity is there for some to make a few bucks.
I remember when Bonds movie aired with the Vanquish, it was pushing north of $300k and there were buyers. Now, you can pick up a used 04 with less than 15k miles for about $110. Besides all the problems associated with the Vanquish, I still view it better looking than the DBS. |
low bid
someone wake me up when the bid is at $175,000 hilarious

The first four 599 cars on Dupont registry are 440K and up, close to double the price of the DBS. Everything depreciates eventually. The Ferrari people are following some scientology cult-like obsesion with unreliable cars. Most Ferrari dealerships insist that you buy an older car before you choose your new car. Then they insist you sell you car back to them to allow them to upcharge of 100k or better. The F in ferrari is for F-you. There is a happening at Aston now that they are free from Ford. The Prodrive influence is bubbling. Soon there will be no sacrifice to buy one. the depreciation will be consistant with anyone else.
