New and Pre-owned Aston Martin DB7 for Sale | duPont REGISTRY

The car started life on a piece of paper by Ian Callum. It debuted at the Geneva Auto Show in 1992 and went on sale in 1994. The first Aston Martin DB7 for sale came with an inline-6 making 355 horsepower. In 1996, Aston Martin added the Volante, or convertible, which a tad more expensive and slightly slower, but sold well. In 1999, the car gained a 6.0-liter V-12 making 420 hp. That made the car capable of going zero-to-60 mph in 4.9 seconds and on to a top speed of 186 mph.

No matter what year you are searching for, all were praised and copied for their timeless beauty and classic lines. Considered one of the most beautiful cars ever created, Ian Callum gained celebrity status with what he did at Aston Martin. The car was produced from 1994 to 2003, during a time when Ford Motor Company owned the brand. The car was a huge success and more than 7,000 were built before it was replaced with the DB9. After the launch of V-12 Vantage in 1999, sales of the V-8-powered car shriveled and it was discontinued.

In 2002, a special edition, called the V12 GT, was created. The V-12’s horsepower was pushed up to 435 hp and 410 lb-ft of torque. It can be easily spotted due to its mesh grille, rear spoiler, new wheels, and carbon-fiber trim. A variety of other special editions were produced. These cars had basic, cosmetic changes.

By far the most memorable edition was the Zagato. All 99 examples quickly sold out when it was released in 2002. At its' heart, the $225,000 Vantage Zagato was a Vantage with more elaborate bodywork and a shortened chassis.
