Make a better purchase

Before you buy

  1. The DB7 is the cheapest Aston. The supercharged six-cylinder cars are cheaper than the later V12 Vantage versions, which are the ones to want.

  2. The DB9 is the cheapest V12 Aston and a well-understood grand tourer. Check clutch wear, especially on automated-manual cars, and the service history.

  3. The V8 Vantage (2005-2017) is the driver's choice: a manual gearbox option, a balanced chassis, and the most engaging drive among affordable Astons.

  4. The Rapide is the cheapest way to carry four people in a V12 Aston, at $52K in our data.

  5. Aston Martin maintenance is expensive. Budget several thousand dollars a year and find a specialist before you buy.

  6. Buy on records. A cheap Aston with gaps in its service history is the most expensive Aston to own.

  7. Classic Astons (DB4, DB5, DB6) are restoration-sensitive: originality, matching numbers and documented work drive their prices.

Methodology

Based on 796 completed North American auction sales from the last 2 years on the online auctions and auction houses we track, priced in US or Canadian dollars. Sales in other currencies are left out, since their prices carry other taxes and duties, and so are fixed-price listings, which record an asking price. Canadian prices are converted to USD. Each price is the median sale, the way our valuations work, and typical ranges show the middle half of sales (25th–75th percentile). The sample is refreshed regularly. A change in the cars sold can change the median without any individual car gaining or losing value.
