Is this the DBS powertrain I wonder? If so, I wonder what improvements over that car they made? It is amazingly agile at speed, consider what a heavy car it is. If you just plan ahead to the next turn, they really make balanced track cars.

I found the DB9's and DBS's very responsive, with good turn-in and handling characteristics. I prefer the S (duh!) but both hold their own. Interestingly enough, the on-board systems do NOT like banked turns. The Karussel I dipped into with a student sent TCS and ABS lights on aplenty! Good thing the AM boys travel with their own technicians. We did some flight recording and never got the error again.

Or should I say PPK department...it is an Aston Martin after-all.
