(from A Kahn Design Press Release) Kahn Aston Martin DB9 Volante: licensed to style
London – October 2011 -
In hard-top form, the Ferrari Bianco white Project Kahn DB9 Aston
Martin Volante is sublime, an irresistible mix of style, elegance,
majesty, tradition, comfort and practicality that James Bond himself
would be proud off, especially with the unique number plate
attached!
Afzal Kahn insists the Aston Martin DB9 was not designed to be a
boy's toy. It was designed, says the principal British designer, “to
be comfortable, elegant and a powerful long-distance vehicle.”
The chassis on which the Kahn Volante also takes much of the credit
- It's a mixture of extruded, stamped and die-cast aluminum, bonded
together into an extremely light yet rigid superstructure. The
shape, is beautifully proportioned and - unlike many convertible
cars - looks the part whether the hood is up or down. The hood
itself is a fully retractable soft top affair that folds down in 17
seconds, making it entirely possible to stow it when waiting at
traffic lights without the risk of being embarrassingly caught half
way through the process.
The Kahn Aston Martin Volante's silky styling package consists of a Kahn Sports exhaust, Sports lowered suspension, red calipers and privacy glass. Of course on smooth roads all is well, a 6.0-litre V12 engine, six-speed ZF automatic with paddle shift, rear wheel drive, electrically-retracting soft-top, an entertainment system that can easily compete with the wind noise and, best of all, the delicacy and razor-sharp engineering ensures it's certainly an interesting vehicle to drive.
The interior offers a sense of occasion unmatched at this point with beautifully finished dials, lustrous black leather in cream stitching, secondary hide in cream and pearl grey interior detailing. However, should you require an interior to match your exact specification, Afzal Kahn and his team will be more than happy to oblige.
Furthermore, our unique 20” RSV Kahn lightweight wheels, in matt pearl grey, exemplify what A. Kahn Design is all about: creating something that is both unique but refined enough to both complement and enhance each and every vehicle.
Fans have already asked @Afzalkahn if this vehicle will make an appearance in the latest installment of the 007 trilogy, well, all we can say on that score is, you'll just have to wait for the movie to come out in November 2012!
