Consider pulling the trigger on a DBS

New to this page but have been reading posts here and there for the past yr. Thinking of pulling the trigger on a DBS. There seems to be plenty available on the market for sale. Im looking at a few ranging from 2010-2011 DBS with under 10k miles. What do you think is a good purchase price these days? Ive seen a ton sitting at $159-164k but they have been there for months. Ive also been reading people having a tougher time moving these, so thinking it its a buyers market right now for the DBS?


Any help would be appreciated.

Buyer's market ---> gray, black, silver, etc.
Seller's market ---> unusual/interesting color

DBS is a phenomenal car! Definitely pull the trigger if you have the means. Owning a V12 super car is something you gotta experience!

I've seen some examples move fast and some stay on the market for a long time even when they are priced right. It's hard to tell from pictures but I can guaranty the cars that move, move because they are super clean. You can have a sub 10k mile car look way apart from another sub 10k mile car, all depends on how they were preserved over the past 5 years or so. I bought my 2009 with 7k miles from the original owner and it looked like it never left the showroom. I've looked at another few sub 10k mile examples, one having 4k miles and that car looked like 30k miles compared to my 7k mile car. There's a 2012 on eBay right now with low miles that looks like the interior wasn't maintained properly. Looks like someone used leather shiner on it its whole life. Looks like **** for a low mile car. Also pay close attention to the front bumper and look for any scrapes and or cracks especially to the carbon fiber pieces. Fixing that alone can set you back 5k+. With that said, look for a clean example and if out of state ask for detailed pictures and video if you are buying site unseen. Florida has the best prices for these cars from what I've seen.
