DB9
  
Introduced at the 2004 Frankfurt Auto Show, the DB9 will replace the DB7 in Aston Martin's lineup. It will be built at Aston Martin's new Gaydon facility and will take 200 hours by hand to make. Expect a 0-60 around 4.7 seconds and top speed of 186 MPH. With those numbers, it shouldn't have much of a problem replacing Aston Martin's most successful model ever. The first ones will arrive sometime now.

Vanquish
The top of the line Vanquish offers anything you could ever want from an Aston Martin. The word vanquish means "to reduce to submission by super force" and the Vanquish does just that with its 460 HP 6.0 Liter V12. It includes a paddle shift manual transmission which uses hydraulics to execute nearly instantaneous gear ganges and also includes a winter mode which reduces power and torque from the engine. To make sure they got it right, Aston Martin used 50 prototypes driven for over 1 million miles

AMV8
