That figure only applies to actual production models. Like most every Bond picture car in recent years, these are mock-ups - like the Vanquishes destroyed in "Die Another Day", which were just bodyshells mounted to rear-drive V8 Explorer mechanicals, or the Z8 in "The World Is Not Enough", which was a mock-up bodyshell on an AC Cobra kit car chassis. Don't get suckered into crying over a PR stunt, guys... They’re not even real DBSes – the whole idea of being valued at $300,000 each is a crock. That figure only applies to actual production models.

The A-hole new james bond couldnt drive a stick and burned the clutch on one of them. they had to stop filming for a while until he learned how to drive a manual. No these are not automatics.

The molding no longer keeps the car svelte and elegant. Instead, it made the car look like a rich ricer's car.. the DBS isn’t where Aston should be going towards.
