Or do you mean the older Jagaur XK8 and not the new one?
If it was this then its the V8 Vantage. Front engined 4.3 litre Jaguar V8 with 380bhp. A tad portly though. I raced one last year (90-150mph) was pretty even.
A DB9 is generally much rarer on the road and has a 6.0 Ford based V12 with min 420bhp, it weighs more but is a descent chunk faster than the V8 in a straight line.
Top Gear power laps (sorry no Aston V8 though):
Aston Martin DBS 1.23.93
Aston Martin Vanquish S 1.27.1
Aston Martin DB9 1.27.1
Mitsubishi Evo VIII 1.28.9
Subaru Impreza STI 1.30.1
Nice kill BTW

Two cars spring to mind,
I had a bit of fun with a Boxter 3.2s, we were pretty level until he bottled it!
And an Overfinch Range rover, that came steaming up behind me, flashed me then overtook, so i pulled into the fast lane and booted it. The gap already between us didnt grow or shrink and i was suprised till i saw Overfinch on the boot!

I raced a Daewoo Matiz in mine and it was close but I pipped it at the end... Well done me! Hurrah!

Not by me, but my Mrs floored my old classic UK turbo whilst at the lights opposite a classic RA. The lad in the RA saw it wa a woman driving and didn't pay any attention. The Mrs on the other hand acted like Peter Grffin had taught her how to drive (google it) and she nailed the throttle.
Left the RA standing and she would not shut up about it for many months.
