The Aston Martin DB11, introduced in 2016 as a successor to the DB9, marks a significant evolution in the brand’s grand touring lineage. Produced from 2016 to the present, it is estimated that over 10,000 units have been built as of 2023, making it less rare than some earlier DB models but still exclusive among exotic cars. The DB11 initially launched with a 5.2-liter twin-turbo V12 engine, producing 600 horsepower and 516 lb-ft of torque, paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission. A later AMR variant boosted output to 630 horsepower, achieving 0-60 mph in just 3.5 seconds. A V8 option, sourced from Mercedes-AMG, was introduced in 2018, offering 503 horsepower for a lighter, more agile feel.
For collectors, the DB11 holds appeal due to its modern design and engineering, including an aluminum structure and advanced aerodynamics like the AeroBlade system for downforce. Early V12 models and limited-edition variants, such as the DB11 AMR, are particularly sought after. While not as rare as vintage Aston Martins, values for well-maintained examples remain strong, with prices often starting above $100,000 for used models, reflecting sustained demand in the exotic car market.
