Two Aston Martin DBS supercars you see in the photos have recently been spotted by in Quang Ninh, Vietnam. Our reader says that this is the first DBS to appear in the S-shaped country, even under the temporary import for re-export, before moving to China.
The DBS is the first production Aston Martin to make extensive use of ultra-light carbon-fiber body panels, which results in high levels of performance and control thanks to the combination of inherent light weight, near-perfect weight distribution, a powerful and flexible V12 engine.
This 6.0-liter V12 engine produces 510 hp at 6,500 rpm and 570 Nm of torque at 5,750 rpm. This allows the sports car to accelerate from 0-100 km/h in 4.3 seconds and hit a top speed of 307 km/h.
In Vietnam, the 2012 Aston Martin DBS has a starting price of more than $550,000. This is a truly staggering number while it only costs $275,461 in the United States.
