Default The new James Bond car: The Aston Martin DB10

Meet the new Bond car
The DB10 was designed in close collaboration between Aston Martin and film director Sam Mendes
The Verge link



Revealed on the 007 stage at the historic Pinewood Studios, the first new member of the Bond 24 film cast is the "built for Bond" Aston Martin DB10. The aggressively styled new sports car has been designed in collaboration between Aston Martin and the film's producers. Director Sam Mendes pulled the covers off the DB10 with the promise that "you will see what it can do when you come and see the movie." Spectre is the title of James Bond's next appearance on the big screen, and is scheduled for release in November of next year.

Aston Martin's press release notes that there will only be 10 DB10s produced, all of them manufactured to a bespoke specification. The company goes on to say that "the DB10 gives a glimpse to the future design direction for the next generation of Aston Martins." You'll find more detailed closeups of Bond's new Aston Martin below, along with a history of all the other wild rides that 007 has been seen in over the years.

Something about the design is a little "flat" to me. Nothing close to the beauty of the DBS.

It was nice waking up to this, this morning. It is quite a refined AM and not bold as the current models.

It is an F-Type under the skin, this is not a future production car, as the DBS was. It is just a film car.

Ye it is a Jag. Don't expect to get any official confirmation. Anyway it is just a show car for film, so no big deal.
