For PHey types, this DB9 is the holy grail - 5.9-litre V12, Sports Pack and a manual gearbox 😍
Happened with the DB9, too. Everyone loved the look, the snazzy new interior and the glorious V12, but some questions were raised about the handling. But then, over its near decade on sale, the DB9 got better and better and better, as little updates and improvements made a noticeable impact.
For PHey types, the DB9 holy grail is a 2009 model year car, with extra power and torque from the 5.9-litre V12, plus the Sports Pack and the manual gearbox. Because the Touchtronic auto is fine, but torque converters have come on some way since the early 2000s. Where its inadequacies might frustrate now, the old school nature of an Aston manual will continue to appeal as the DB9 moves into classic territory..
The Sports Pack was received very well, with one review calling it a"big improvement" over standard, noting gains in traction, turn in, body control, steering and even ride - despite that spring rate increase. Presumably the lighter wheels helped with that. But for just £2,495, the Sports Pack delivered a much more rewarding DB9 driving experience, which is why plenty are available now - from less than £40k, too.
But you won't find many manuals. In the PH classifieds there are only two , with both of those DB9s fitted with the Sports Pack. The advert for this one claims it's one of just 18 specified this way; presumably that's with the 2008 update and the Sports Pack, but could well just be SP - the listing also reckons there were just 62 UK manuals in the car's lifetime.
