Ariel thanks for the leads...I found my previous Aston on your website.
I am looking specifically for a 2009 DBS in Casino Royale color with 2+2 seating.

Haha sounds like you're talking yourself into getting two cars! I'll throw in some more to confuse you if you want a beater. Get a Lotus Elise for $25k! It gets great gas mileage and is the most fun DD car I have ever owned...though not always the most practical. (But still no I wouldn't drive it into Ktown).

I'm looking for a MY09/MY10 DBS in either white, or any grey & dark grey hue (not specifically casino royale), black inteior (not tan or any funky mix), not necessary to have the rear +2 seatings (actually curious to find it with just the front 2 seats on the state-side), BUT, must have ZF auto trans.

As an FYI -
For those looking into a used DBS, my local AM dealership recently had one into their shop to check on some engine noises and clutch noises. Apparently the owner just purchased this car from a dealership in Southern California and the car is out of warranty. Anyhow, after working with the UK trying to diagnose the noises and working with the dealership in Southern California to try and resolve payment, the decision was made to refund the owner the purchase price and ship the car back to Southern California. So, if any of you come across a quantum silver (i think) DBS with a dark tan interior and with less than 10K miles or so and being sold out of a shop in Southern California, beware!
The car really does look immaculate from the outside and the interior is gorgeous as well, although some of the leather trim is starting to peel.

You don't want manual?

Why do 2009 DBS depreciate so much? For a 4 year old car, its depreciated $100k. A 2009 V8 Vantage, on the other side, has not even depreciated as much.
Curious as to why that is.

It seems like market asking prices for 2009 DBS' with about 10K on the odometer are about $155K. While some ask higher, these cars stay on the market for many months indicating they are priced too high.
I think you could probably get a 2009 with 10K on it for high $130's about now. There is a large difference between the ask and the transaction values.

First, your numbers are not comparable. A DBS on the low end vs a V8 on the high end. At least use comparable numbers for the same condition/mileage.
Second, a DBS is 50% more than a V8 to begin with, so, all things being equal, you'd expect a 2009 same mileage/condition DBS to sell for 50% more than a V8. Seems like your numbers bear that out.
No surprise here.

What I was getting on about is the depreciation.
A new DBS is $275k. A 4 year old DBS is selling for around $150k on the low end. Let's use $180k as average.
That is about 65% of the total cost when new.
A new V8V is $130k. A 4 year old V8V is selling for around $95k as average.
That is about 74% of the total cost when new.
Of course mileage may play a factor. This is just generally what I am seeing on depreciation values. Perhaps it is because a new gen DBS is coming out soon.

Look at Scuderias which also started at a similar price point close to $300k and also could be had for $160k.
Look at Maserati's and Bentleys that have dropped like rocks. I think we all know that most exotics have more potential to depreciate when starting off at higher price points initially.
I do think the new Vanquish coming out also hits the DBS harder as well.
