Aston Martin creates three special-edition DB9s

Aston Martin has designed three special-edition DB9 models named Carbon Black, Quantum Silver and Morning Frost.

The Carbon Black and Quantum Silver models are both sport editions with a six-speed Touchtronic II automatic transmission and a remapped sports exhaust that provides a more evocative sound, the automaker said.

Both cars come equipped with 19-inch, black 10-spoke wheels, a black grille and graphite tailpipes. The black theme continues with an obsidian black interior that includes a semi-aniline leather roof lining, coarse silver stitching and polished-glass switches.

The Morning Frost version also comes equipped with a Touchtronic II transmission but is designed as a luxury edition. The car wears pearlescent white paint and 19-inch silver, 10-spoke wheels, silver brake calipers and a silver grille. The metallic bronze interior is equipped with a piano-black center console and perforated seat inners.

Each special edition comes with a laser-etched sill plaque with the name of the editions and the Aston Martin insignia. The special editions are available to order at Aston Martin dealerships.
