2023 Aston Martin DBS Overview

The DBS competes with exotic supercars and ultra-luxury cars alike, providing a nice middle ground between sporting pretensions and luxury among high end automobiles. Its most direct competitor is probably the Ferrari 812 Superfast, which costs a bit more, but like the DBS, offers a front mounted V12 engine making huge amounts of power. However, the 812 Superfast is a much more high-strung automobile, and though it is still fairly luxurious, it isn't as comfortable as a DBS. And while the DBS can be had as a coupe or a convertible, there is no drop top option on the Ferrari. On the other hand, cars from manufacturers like Bentley and Rolls-Royce tend to be significantly less sporty and extroverted than the DBS, providing fewer thrills to drivers while featuring less exotic styling.
