ASTON MARTIN DB7

The Aston Martin DB7 was first introduced at the Geneva Motor Show in March 1993 and became one of the most important models in Aston Martin's modern history. Offered in both Coupe and Volante specification, the DB7 blended timeless British elegance with refined grand touring performance, helping revitalize the marque throughout the 1990s.

The 1998 model represents the final evolution of the original supercharged inline-six DB7 before the arrival of the V12-powered DB7 Vantage in 1999. Powered by a supercharged 3.2-liter inline-six producing 335 horsepower and 361 lb-ft of torque, the DB7 delivered smooth yet spirited performance, achieving 0–60 mph in approximately 6.4 seconds. Available with either a 5-speed manual or 4-speed automatic transmission, the car offered effortless acceleration accompanied by a distinctive supercharger whine and refined exhaust note.

Penned by renowned designer Ian Callum, the DB7 featured flowing body lines, a long hood, and muscular rear haunches that gave Aston Martin a more contemporary identity while still preserving the marque's unmistakable character. Its balanced rear-wheel-drive chassis and grand touring proportions made the DB7 equally at home on winding roads or long-distance journeys.

Inside, the cabin showcased traditional Aston Martin craftsmanship with richly appointed Connolly leather upholstery, walnut veneer trim, polished metal accents, and classic analog instrumentation. The DB7's combination of hand-built luxury, performance, and exclusivity established it as one of the defining British grand tourers of its era.

As the model that revived Aston Martin's fortunes during the 1990s, the DB7 became the brand's most successful production car to that point and remains one of Aston Martin's most recognizable and celebrated modern classics.


THE CAR OFFERED

Finished in Pendle Black Metallic over a bespoke interior of Full Tan Connolly Leather with Piped Charcoal contrast detailing, Charcoal Wilton Wool carpeting, and a Black Mohair folding soft top, this DB7 Volante presents in an exceptionally elegant and cohesive specification that showcases the model at its most refined.

Sold new through Aston Martin of Greenwich, Connecticut, to real estate mogul and hotelier Aby Rosen, chassis no. SCFAA4121WK202210 has been in the care of its first and only owner since new — a distinction that speaks volumes in the market for collector-grade British motorcars. Forming part of a private collection, the car has seen only sparing, seasonal use throughout its life, always maintained and serviced with the attention befitting a hand-built Aston Martin.

Powered by Aston Martin's 3.2-liter twin-cam supercharged inline-six producing 335 bhp, the DB7 offers an intoxicating combination of effortless grand touring ability and a sonorous, characterful driving experience that remains deeply rewarding today. The open-air Volante configuration — with its beautifully tailored Black Mohair hood — only heightens the experience.

Accompanying this example is its complete factory book pack, original tools, keys, and spare wheel — a rare and desirable suite of documentation and accessories seldom found intact on cars of this age. It is presented ready for immediate use and enjoyment, representing a compelling opportunity to acquire a single-owner, collection-kept DB7 Volante at a significant fraction of its original window sticker.
