If you’ve seen the latest James Bond flilck, Quantum of Solace, you know that the Alfa Romeo 159 plays a part in the opening sequence. To celebrate the cameo, the Italian automaker is offering a limited-edition 159 sedan swathed in the same black scheme as the cars used in the movie’s chase scene.
The 159 Limited Edition (pictured in front of MI6′s London headquarters) features a lowered suspension, red Brembo brake callipers, sports dials with a red background, black leather upholstery, Carbonio black metallic paint and darkened 19-inch 10-spoke alloy wheels.

Just 250 examples will be produced, all with the 150-horsepower, 1.9-liter JTDM diesel engine. UK buyers will pay £22,168.

In addition, Alfa Romeo UK will offer movie fans the opportunity to win James Bond Quantum of Solace Scalextric race sets equipped with the 159 and the Aston Martin DBS to stage their own car chases.
