Aston Martin DBR9
ok, presuming u guys have never seen this before, check this out.
Aston Martin, one of Britain's most prestigious sports car companies, will return to international motor sport during 2005 with the DBR9.
A new division called Aston Martin Racing has been created in a partnership with Prodrive, one of the world's leading motor sport and automotive technology specialists. Prodrive will be responsible for Aston Martin Racing's global operations and will play a pivotal role in the plans to see a competitive Aston Martin program return to the world sports car series.
The program will see Aston Martin DBR9s racing production-based GT sports car events around the world, including the Le Mans 24 Hours, which Aston Martin won in 1959.
Story by Aston Martin Lagonda Limited
Only one pic available,to me it looks more like a chop rather than the real thing, maybe its a concept design model thats not yet been physically produced :confused:
If its a repost, i apologise
-
that picture is photochopped i think
-
yea he said it looks that way and i agree. maybe it is just an artists conception of what the DBR9 will look like.

-

[QUOTE=Karrmann]that's just a tuned DB7[/QUOTE]
No, the DB9 is a completely new car...
That picture is definately a photoshop.
It is this original press photo, but altered. I wouldn't expect to see 5 stud wheels and standard door mirrors on a race car.

guys, why the debate ?
if you go ot the link , you'll see the press release photo.
