2012 Aston Martin Virage

Overview

Following a subtle nose job for the DB9 in 2011, a newly shaped coupe based on the same underpinnings arrives on the scene this year. The Virage gets the freshest set of Aston clothes, along with a 20-hp bump over the DB9’s V-12. Both are grand touring coupes that look good anywhere they go, and don’t forget about the gorgeous Volante convertible which adds open-air luxury to the mix. Like other Astons, the DB9 and Virage are heavy, expensive, and don’t quite meet expectations.
