2021 Market Review - Aston Martin 1959-2006
The days of anyone on average wages being able to fund a DB-prefix Aston are long gone. Back in the 1990s, a decent DB6 would cost $50-60,000 but today that price-tag carries an extra zero. As for the DB5 with its 007 imagery, look at $1.5 million or more.
The A-M to chase at present and which still sells for semi-sensible money is a DB7. Locally delivered cars that have been well maintained will cost $70-80,000, with private imports cheaper and the Drophead $20,000 more.
If you can feed a V12, the Vantage/Vanquish duo sit at around $150,000. That’s a lot less than AMV8s from the 1970s which will soon be topping $250,000.
