Unicorn sighting: post-facelift manual Volante DB9 for sale

I've only seen a couple post face-lift manual Volante Gen1 DB9s ever, and only one that was for sale. So, this is I think at least post-worthy if at least for its uniqueness. Of course, the reason these things are unicorns is that nearly no one wanted them.

I don't know how clean the title is, but if it was clean this should be priced at about $80k. https://www.ebay.com/itm/352597627371?ul_noapp=true

The Fire Red is sure a pretty color!




Cheers,
Chris

Not generational revision, as there were no manuals produced after '11, but I rather referred to face-lift ('08-'11) within the first generation of '04-11. Officially, they were referred to as Gen1 ('04-11) and Gen4 ('12-'15). Semantics aside, this is POST face-lift of the Gen1 DB9.

Any stick DB9 is rare.. a Volante Stick is definitely unicorn country. Great car if its solid.

Looks like the floor carpet is out. OEM mats in trunk.. pretty shredded.. But the carpet looks missing.. They have those huge rubber mats coving the floor panel.. but you can see the exposed silver panel where your feet end up on both driver & passenger... Hmm Carpet out in a convertible.. sounds like it sat in the rain with the top down? Just what I see from the pictures. If its kosher.... an $80k car should have floor carpet. ;-)

They have another similar car for sale at almost the same price, but it's an auto. Either they have no idea the rarity premium that a manual would command, or she's participated in one of Florida's famous water events. :/

OT but speaking of unicorns I see that an exotics dealer in SoCal has a low mileage 2013 VantageS manual roadster for sale $75K.

Agreed on the very rare Volante 2009 6-speed manual, you have the unique factory wheels and bilstien suspension. Maybe we will see the new owner on here soon?
