New to Forum - DBS Questions

Hello all. I'm close to making the plunge on one of my dream cars, a DBS Volante. I've found a mint 2011 that looks like a good deal. I don't usually buy pre-owned, but the this one is tempting. I want to make sure I know what changes were made to the 2012 model that I would be foregoing with a 2011. Also, does anyone have any insights on expected changes for 2013?

Thanks to everyone reading this post.

Barry

Welcome Barry!

Check these Spy photos for 2013. It should be featured in the new James Bond Movie and announced around the same time. http://www.caranddriver.com/news/201...py-photos-news

The rear and front have DBS attributes but appears MORE aggressive. The sides are similar markings from the One-77. The front headlamp is a single bulb (instead of the double in the DB9/DBS), mostly utilizing the same projected headlamps from the Virage and Rapide. If you look at the steering wheel, it's the same one from the One-77 as well.

I decided to go with the Virage over the DBS Carbon Edition. I plan on trading this in for the 2013 DBS (or whatever it will be called).

2012 models same as 2011 model.

There isn't going to be a new DBS for 2013, but maybe a new DB9.
