Aston Martin announces Carbon Black special editions of the DBS & V12 Vantage

DBS Carbon Black Edition and V12 Vantage Carbon Black Edition feature a bespoke Carbon Black metallic paint especially formulated with a subtle metallic twist to create a deep rich patina.

The side strake of the V12 Vantage has been fashioned from real carbon fibre backed by a black mesh and complimented with gloss black 10 spoke diamond turned alloy wheels. Front features a bright finished grille and front parking sensors, that are normally optional.

Interior is upgraded with Obsidian Black leather highlighted with a contrast silver coarse stitch – all hand stitched. New lightweight carbon fiber seats save 17 kg (37 lbs) over the standard seats, other interior highlights are a Piano black facia trim and carbon fiber trim.

The V12 Vantage comes with Aston Martin 700w Premium Audio System, while the DBS boasts the Bang & Olufsen Beosound DBS audio system.

Prices will be confirmed in the New Year, with final pricing expected to be approximately 5% over current base prices. European customers who order a Carbon Black Edition V12 Vantage will have the opportunity to experience Aston Martin’s renowned Performance Driving Course free of charge which offers a memorable day helping customers to equip themselves with the skill sets to enhance the enjoyment of their Aston Martin on the track.
