Re: New DB9 too!
Not a fan of the Sportshift in the V8 or the DB9 for that matter, the V8 is definitely a car to have in manual, DB9 may warrant some sort of automatic mode since it is much more of a GT.
Drove a DB9 in sportshift recently, didn't like it.
Luckily the V8 N400 comes in both manual and sportshift.
The DB9 special edition comes in only Sportshift.

The Vantage N400 includes a number of technical improvements as well as enhancements to its standard range of color and trim specifications. These include a power upgrade to the 4.3L V8 engine, lifting peak power to 400hp and peak torque to 420Nm . It also comes with a sports pack consisting of lightweight graphite-finished aluminum wheels, up-rated springs and dampers and a new rear anti-roll bar. There also a revised side sill design, new bonnet and side strake meshes, clear rear lamp lenses and a bright finish grille. Inside, the car picks up satnav, Bluetooth and heated seats.
Hmmm, maybe Aston Martin should get its ex-stylist Henrik Fisker to come back to work just for one day to clean up the ugly sills on this car.
Re: Aston Vantage N400 @ Frankfurt
Nice effort from AM, but the limitation of colours doesn't make it worth it (who wants black int for a roadster 
).
Looks like the suspension will not be a retrofit.
No word on the extra HP retrofit but it looks like just an airbox with a valve and a new ECU programming. Wiring that valve might be a problem.
3 more weeks for my roadster!

Fisker's independant work makes me not want this

When you put it like that, I have to agree.
So who REALLY did the good-looking Aston Martins when Fisker was cashing his AM salary checks?
