I just looked at Larini's website and i would have to agree. The quality looks really good. Does anyone have a sound clip of their DB9 with any compoent of the Larini exhaust system?

It's a DBS, but it should sound about the same. I think it's spectacular:

My Viper is aweful on MPG's as well. As YVR said its more aobut the "Smiles Per Gallon".
I too have a manual trans and you're smart to hold out for one! As you've already learned, it will be harder to find but, when you find the right one it will make the wait worth it!

Good luck.

This sounds much better than Larini. Larini seems to try to make the Aston sound like a Ferrari, while QS makes the Aston sound like beast it is.

I know some people like all those snap, crackle and pops, but I prefer to keep those noises limited to my breakfast cereal. To me it just sounds messy, unrefined, and more 60's muscle-car than exotic.

They both sounds good but im going to have to agree with Karl. The v12 should sound more exotic than a throaty v8. The sound that was comming out of that DB9 sounds like it should be comming out of a V8V. Dont get me wrong, they both sound really good but i think the Larini sounds better.
