Selling A 1967 Aston Martin DBS

 

Moving away from the previous Aston Martin DB4, DB5 and DB6’s designs, the new Aston Martin DBS featured a more contemporary body, very representative of the automotive trends in the late 1960’s and early 1970’s. With a more spacious and comfortable inside, offering extra shoulder room for the passengers in the back, the 1967 Aston Martin DBS is a real four-seat grand touring car. Originally, the new car was going to be powered by a V8 engine. However, the DBS inherited the engine used for the DB6, as the V8 was not ready in time for the start of production. The 4.0L DOHC straight-6 engine was capable of 283hp at 5,500 rpm and delivered a powerful driving experience. To balance the weight gain from the heavier DBS body, the Vantage engine option was made available. With the Vantage specs, the horsepower was boosted to 325. The weight of the car still being relatively light (3,760 lb) when compared to other models of the era, the DBS is a very fun car to drive. If you’re thinking about selling your 1967 Aston Martin DBS, the Alex Manos team would love to hear from you.
