Aston Martin Virage 2 Volante Convertible (2011-2012)
Product Gallery
Product Overview
Aston Martin Virage 2 Volante is a mid-size luxury convertible in production from 2011 to 2012. It was powered by a naturally-aspirated V12 engine that displaced 5.9 liters paired to a 6-speed automatic transmission.
Essentially an upscale DB9 Volante, the Virage was slotted between the DB9 and the DBS. Seeing that the DBS is also an upscale DB9, one can be forgiven for not being able to tell the three apart. Indeed, there were only a couple dozen horsepower separating the three.
Overall, it is a great vehicle that should never have existed. While it was more limited in production, the DBS was intended to be superior, if one is able to tell the difference.
