The DB9 is set to eclipse the DB7 as Aston's most successful car ever, the Volante is every bit as performance driven but may look even cooler. The car is admittedly a little lighter and less rigid than the hard top DB9 but this doesn't seem to devalue the drive. Unlike the DB9 it doesn't want to fishtail out of every corner and will reward the driver for pushing its limits with responsiveness and a true line. With the top down the speed of the car is even more evident and the acceleration will definitely give you an interesting hair style, but these are both positives in anyone's book. Dr. Bez can be hugely proud of the Volante, a car that manages to pull its top down without loosing anything of its British distinction and class.
The DB9 looses nothing of its charm, sophistication and ogle value by being a soft top, if anything all these elements are drastically increased. Imagine cruising through the countryside in a soft-top Aston of this beauty. even the sheep will stare! I defy anyone to pull up at traffic lights in this car and not be the centre of attention, until you pull away from them all that is! The Volante is undeniably cool and is the perfect soft top for any discerning Supercar driver. The car shares the same long, low lines and a muscular frame as the coupe and is undoubtedly worthy to hold the same badge. If Bond was looking for a soft-top this would have to be it! The Volante is an awesome machine with beautiful good looks.
