Selling A 1966 Aston Martin DB6 Coupe

 

Produced from 1965 to 1969, the Aston Martin DB6 Mk I, the first version of the Aston Martin DB6, was a successful evolution from the previous DB4 and DB5 models. It boasted a stretched chassis and relocated rear axle in order to offer additional seat space for the rear passengers, making the DB6 a real 4-seater. Aston Martin also adopted a new chassis construction with the DB6, dropping the superleggera technique used on both DB4 and DB5. The new chassis was 17 pounds heavier, but it enhanced the high-speed stability of the car with aerodynamic improvements. In addition to being a particularly comfortable and luxurious grand touring classic, the DB6 is also a very enjoyable driver’s car thanks to the Tadek Marek-designed engine, featuring a double overhead camshaft 4-Liter. Capable of 282hp at 5,500 rpm (and an exciting 325hp with the Vantage option), the Aston Martin DB6 hit an average top speed of 150mph. Lastly, as you already know, the DB6 Coupe is one of the most elegant designs of its era, especially with the curved Kamm tail on the rear end, and the split front and rear bumpers.
