Join our host as she takes us through the history of Aston Martin and its DB cars.
The Aston Martin DB9 is a design icon, and it'll surely go down in history as one of the most beautiful cars from this era. We've always loved these cars for their V12 power and GT prowess - and this one is a really nice example finished in a handsome Tungsten Silver over Obsidian Black color combination.

Hahaha I actually alternate my pronunciations! I say "Jag-u-ar" in some car circles, but I go for "Jag-wire" for wide audiences because imo, it's more colloquial/understandable for non-car folks in America

00s Aston Martin was peak Aston Martin, possibly only comparable to the early DB# cars. Stunning design with the performance to back it up.
the db9 is so beautiful... and the trunk is 1 alanis unit!! perfection right there

The gold standard of storage capacity.
the DB9 is to me the perfect DB. it's timeless. The DB12 will be outdated one day. The DB9 will never.
To me the DB9 is a perfect design. The later DB/DBS models look busy and sometimes gaudy. This is simple beauty. And the dials look like expensive timepieces, not an iPad. Perfection.
Alanis is awesome at telling everything about the car she's reviewing.

The DB9 has to be my favorite looking Aston. Maybe the DBS. But I think this car is just classy.
C&B or BaT recently had a manual transmission DB9. 1st time I ever saw one (on-line). It sold for around $80k- substantially more than what the DB9s usually go for
Alanis is awesome, like always.

Great review, totally captured the experience. I got to drive a 2013 Aston Martin V12 Virage on the track. The Virage was supposed to be directly in-between the DB9 and DB12 model wise. I’ll never forget that day
Loved the historical context

Aston Martin have always stuck to flowing lines and it works, it's timeless. I don't understand why modern designers of "regular" cars keep on adding these useless angles everywhere, instead of a flowing minimalist approach
Thumbs up for the homework you did.

Hi Alanis, you suggested by your presentation the fact that driving a refined high power luxury GT is not about 0-60 only or tailgating for petty advantage. It's about a powerful luxurious highway ride and calm and in command secondary road driving experience that makes these cars so nice and awesome. Also, with possible manual and auto sport mode options that can be learned then with a skilled driver you can get to another level of driving. Beware the drivers that will cut in front though, Lol.
Alanis , always enjoy your content !!!

Next time I am going to choose a car I want my salesman to use the Alanis unit for trunk measurement. If he doesn't I'll never buy him a car, for sure.
Alanis' t-shirts are becoming more quirky than Doug's! XD
The original DB9 is imo the prettiest modern car.

Its a bummer that Doug isn't doing many of these anny more but alanis is a decent substitute
The funny thing about that key is that Europeans will insist it's "just a regular Ford key". Ya, we didn't get those cylindrical Tibbe keys here in the US. Only Jags and Astons from the era have those here.

Hi Alanis, hope you well! Yes the DB9 is extremely pretty in its design simplicity and timeless proportions. However, there is an awful heritage from the Ford era, for example the plastic controls on the steering column, that plastic items my dad had in his Ford Escort in the 80's whilst you have this astonishing beautiful natural wooden parts on the doors. I never understood how a company which from its beginnings was considered on top of the luxury game for GT's with Bentley, allowed itself with such cheap parts nonsense. Other that that, The real deal which steals the whole show in this video is your Tshirt. Of Course. Much love as always for the sexiest KZread hostess in the planet from West Spain 🙂

That empty rectangular gap in the console is like an insult. The DB9 looks emasculated with no mechanical gear shifter and won't ever let you forget.
the DBS is the best looking of all the DB9 variants
LOUD NOISES IS BACK!🫣🫠😩
The DB9 is the 'grown ups' version of the V8 Vantage. I've been lucky enough to have had both and far prefer the V8 Vantage. Unfortunately the prices of used Vantage's is reflecting just how perfect the car is. So next month I have to make a decision on whether to go for a 2006 DB9, or a 2008 Vantage which is £15000 more expensive. Decisions. Decisions.
The trunk's size is 1 Alanis unit? You Americans really want to use anything but the metric system!!!!!!

Alanis is just so awesome...and that Aston...damn, what a ride, the lines, the design, slick and elegant, is just really really attractive
You could put your name on some kind of gun...I bet it would be very popular.
In some of the other Ian Fleming Bond books, he drives a Bentley.
Count the number of times you hear "Jagwire" throughout this video. I counted at least 6.
Who woulda guessed Alana does the best camera work of the bunch?,,😊
