last year saw one at Ed Martin Acura for like 180k
didnt make much of an impression on me at the time, especially the interior. Then again Im not impressed in the least bit with special woods and what not.
BUT
this car is growing on my alot
especially the 6 speed!!!
about f'n time!!
I think in the front engine car catorgory I like this more than the ZR1
maybe after I have a few exotics and am getting older I will pick up a beautiful GT like this

I dont think yellow is quite the color to go for on an AM, even for me
Ive seen a few Bentleys in yellow too
I dont know what I want anymore
CGT, LP640, DBS, Ford GT, Atom, or hold out for a Zonda

"The DBS is just a DB9 in which Aston Martin has gone through and made every part a little better" - Jeremy Clarkson
Not the exact quote, he says some small percent that i cant remember right now.

Yes but then he also says (not exact quote again) that it's the best car he's driven all year.

4 seconds around that track is pretty significant.
Zonda F ROADSTER was faster than the Veyron btw...

I don't think the price increase of a DBS over a DB9 is worth it.
I bet that yellow DB9 is pretty rare though.
