Their first attempt at an Aston was this aggressive looking DB9 first shown at the Frankfurt IAA, September 2005. From what I can tell you from the press release, here are some of the modifications

• Unique front spoiler with larger cooling intakes for the engine and brakes
• Side skirts and a new real valance
• Mansory trademark double stacked exhaust tips
• Small rear boot lid spoiler
• New alloy vents on the bonnet
• Three piece alloy wheels – not shown on these press pictures
• Butterfly doors, a concept only available on this prototype
• Interior in light maple wood, carbonfibre and Alcantara
• A claimed 500bhp engine capable of delivering a top speed of 205mph

This particular example is I believe a concept to demonstrate the ability of the firm. The butterfly doors are a unique additional modification that Mansory did not subsequently offer to customers. Two years later, Mansory also offered their customisation programme on the DB9 Volante.
