Aston Martin DB9 Volante convertible$175,550
The term, "Volante," is Aston Martin’s term for a convertible. It sounds like something that would fly, and the DB9 Volante does, thanks to a 450-hp V12. The wood and leather in the cabin are handcrafted and include walnut, "piano black," mahogany and bamboo. The last two are highly unusual. Wood panels are also solid wood, not veneers. In addition, Aston Martin offers oiled finishes like fine furniture, as an alternative to a shiny, high-gloss finish.
