Elegant, powerful, class... A pure pleasure to look at. One of our friends gave me the pleasure to have a ride on his DB9... It was something! Best, Nicolas
Beside manual transmission I had a set of unusual requirements due to parking space limitations, no more than 190cm wide which ruled out some nice cars (z06, r8 v10). 911s were ruled out early because I already owned one, driven many and they have become
Not sure it's a fair comparison; one has 2/3rd the engine size, 2/3rd the cylinders, and less than 2/3rd the price tag. But I'm sure both cars are likely to be wonderful machines. I found the DB9 to be much more grand tourer than sports car. And I'm told
