Aston Martin DB7, DB9, DBS, Vantage V8, Vanquish, and Classic models

Looking at buying 16 DB9 GT Volante. What issues to check / expect? How's your DB9?

I dont recall anyone on here with it but I have seen others do it. The carplay makes it worth it alone.

When I originally was looking at a punched 17 Vanquish Volante the dealer was adamant there is no upgrade and no carplay only the 18s had carplay. So many emails until they finally checked their car and went oops it does have carplay. Am dealers with dead stock just don't care it seems.

Hi...two places to check on car play for Astons...one is Rich at Redpants.lol that sells many Aston parts also or go direct Aston Installations in England and ask James or Lenny questions.

Rich sells their systems and Aston installations helped AM on car play ...cameras etc.

Aston guys come to the US every once in awhile. I had them install front and rear cameras on my 09 vantage...I had done in April 2018 and it shows on my GPS screen.

Rich is a sponsor on 6speed that is why I mentioned him and many on this forum have bought parts etc from him.

Good luck...

He wasn't the rude but adamant there was no Carplay. That combined with ridiculous pricing meant time to move on. Most sale people I have dealt with on every level from Honda to Bentley have been rude once you start asking a lot of questions. Very few were responsive and quick to respond to requests except one at Manhattan Motorcars and Wide World BMW, and Ferrari Maserati LI. Most of them suck unfortunately. Service that's a whole different animal and lots of disappointment.
