Hi, this is my first post and I have a few questions for you.

1. Why does the DB9 have more hp and torque than the Vantage but costs 30,000 credits less?
2. Does the DB9 have better/worse performance (brakes, turning, etc.) than the Vantage?
3. Is the Vanquish worth the extra 70,000?

Thanks,

The Vantage is the best perfoming Aston in GT4, I have no idea why the DB7 costs more than the better DB9 though.

Well if you like driving cars that seem to be made from bricks. I like the car, but I did stage 3 weight reduction and added a rollcage before I drove it.
 
If they're modelled after real world prices, you're probably going to ave to note what the purpose of the car was. Some cars just cost more because of luxury items, and have to be priced accurately to they don't have a normally $200,000.00 car going for $50,000.00 just because it's a crappy performer. It's like the Skyline in games, it ridiculously expensive for a semi-okay driving car, it's because in real life it was built as Nissan's luxury car. Much like the Infiniti branch.

It handles quite well stock, especially for a big heavy car like that.
 
Like PS said, the Vanquish is expensive because it's more desirable. It's OK to desire one car more than another in a game isn't it? Course it is!!! That's why.

The DB7 includes more luxury offers than a DB9 in real life.

The DB7 is more exclusive and more of Aston's Luxury car. The DB9 would be considered their little fast sport coupe.

The luxury of the DB7 in real life ups the price tag.

Argh beat me too it, Yeah, The Sheer uxury of this car just jacks up the price,
Although im sure there is a decent specs sheet for the DB9 but these probably arnt the same standard of the DB7

Cheers Tm 👍
 
I went into arcade mode and did laps around Tokyo, and I found out that the DB9 had the fastest laps. Thanks for helping me out.

The DB9 is the replacement for the DB7. The Vanquish is the flagship model for Aston Martin. Yes, the DB9 has a better power to weight than the Vanquish. Aston decided to fix that. There is a new, more powerful Vanquish('S' model, with 520hp) available, but it wasn't out in time to make GT4.

The 'fast little sports coupe' is the 911-targeting V8 Vantage, which should be out soon. It is not in GT4, and should not be confused with the hugemongous old twin-supercharged V8 Vantage found in GT4 used car lots.
 
Today I won the Pan European Championship with a DB9.... Lost on La Sarthe as expected of the SLR, and I finished 5th on Nür (if I wouldn't have screwed up so often, I probably would have been 3rd). Overall I like the car, it didn't have any weight reductions or hp adding mods. I did have triple clutch, flywheel, suspension, etc. 150 whopping a-spec points for every race I won (3 out of 5 won).
