The Aston Martin DB9 is a two-door, two- or four-seater grand touring car produced by the British automaker Aston Martin from 2004 until it was discontinued on 27 July 2016. The official series manufacture began in January 2004 for the coupe version and February 2005 for the convertible, which is known as the "Volante". Designed by Ian Callum and Henrik Fisker, the DB9 is the successor to the DB7, which Aston Martin produced from 1994 to 2004. The DB9's chassis is composed of aluminium and composite materials. In 2008 and 2010, minor alterations were implemented to the DB9's exterior and engine, but the most noteworthy update arrived in 2012, with the most prominent adjustments lying in its front fascia. The DB9 was adapted for racing by Aston Martin's racing division in the form of the "DBR9" and the "DBRS9", both introduced in 2005. To commemorate to discontinuation of the DB9, Aston Martin released the "DB9 GT" in 2015.
