Long associated with cars of exquisite style and intoxicating performance, the exotic British automaker has used the DBS nameplate for a trilogy of models. The original lived between 1967 and 1972, followed by a modern stint of the Aston Martin DBS V12 between 2007 and 2012. The second reinvention then appeared back in 2018 when the company was using the DBS Superleggera moniker for its “super grand tourer” two-door coupe and convertible flagships. Since 2018 the DBS has stood at the pinnacle of Aston Martin’s series production range.

Extensive design and engineering enhancements ensure the DBS 770 Ultimate is an unforgettable and highly-collectable celebration of Aston Martin’s flagship Super GT.

Just as the Aston Martin DBS 770 Ultimate has been mechanically honed, its appearance has been amplified to present an assertive design and uncompromisingly unique aesthetic befitting of a final edition model created to celebrate the end of an era.

Inside, the Aston offers a dazzling array of fresh design treatments that sets it apart from its predecessor. Signifying its halo positioning, the DBS 770 comes with Sports Plus Seats trimmed in full semi-aniline leather and Alcantara, featuring a ‘fluted’ quilt and perforation pattern as standard.
