Trying to ratchet down overheads in the new year so the DB9's got to go. This is probably the best car I have ever driven. For those that have not driven one, it is much sportier than you would think...certainly considerably sportier than the Bentley Continental GT or the SL65 and perhaps even sportier than a 996TT. The power is incredible and immediate and the exhaust sound is the best V12 I have heard short of an Enzo.

This car is a light blue color (not sure what it's called) with parchment interior, blue trim and bamboo wood. It has just shy of 4500 miles on it.

Asking $150,000 or best offer.

Here is a teaser pic. I am going to try to take more today and post them this afternoon.

are you serious or joking? I'd possibly consider taking one of the cars as partial trade.

I heard that the db9 was pretty unreliable, have you had anything go wrong?

couple little things like the CD Changer broke and was replaced under warranty, but nothing to speak of.

ok here are the pics. A Valet scraped the nose the other night (you can see it pretty clearly in the first picture although most of that is paint from the curb, not scratch). I'll have that touched up and perfect for the buyer.

I think I'm going to get another Elise. I just want something fun to tool around in and maybe modify some. My goal for 2006 is to end up with a lot of money in the bank, so i'm trying to stop the outflow wherever it's unnecessary.

By the way guys, I'm definitely flexible on the price, i know 150 is a bit high but i had to start somewhere. Make me an offer and we'll work it out.

Thanks

Yes, I've had some Classics that go easy for $100k+. Just recently my '57 Bel Air custom sold for $108k. But nothing in stock now for $150k like that Aston.

Kick myself

I could just kick myself for all the SS 396's I owned and sold for $800 bucks back in the day, I had a chance to go to the Barrett Jackson car show last week and it was nice to see there are still hundreds of the classics still around. I took pictures if anyone would like to see, I could start a thread but not sure how everyone would take it. Sorta walk down memory lane.

i passed on a shelby gt350h about 20 years ago for i think $30k +-ish. i had no extra space to store it. although, that money has probably done better in the market.
