On the British automotive show Top Gear the DB9 is thought of highly, notably on the show's "Cool Wall" segment, where the presenters considered it to be "too cool" for the wall and it received its own category, dubbed the "DB9 Sub Zero Fridge" which was in fact a mini-refrigerator with the car's card within it. Another time on the show, presenter Jeremy Clarkson was trying to find out if he could set a lap in Gran Turismo 4 around Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca's virtual counterpart, then match it in real life on the real track. When he came across the DB9, he said "That's not really a racing car, that is just pornography."

“For women ... bras, panties, bathing suits, and other stereotypical gear are visual reminders of a commercial, idealized feminine image that our real and diverse female bodies can’t possibly fit. Without these visual references, each individual woman’s body demands to be accepted on its own terms. We stop being comparatives. We begin to be unique.”
—Gloria Steinem (b. 1934)
