007 cars

Commentary & photos here!

the z3 was alright when it came out...now everyone and their dog has one

The DB5 is classic! The ejection seat, rocket launchers, machine guns, etc. It was awesome! I cant remember the one it was in, but it was cool.

The Lotus Esprit is also awesome, when it drives out onto the beach after foiling the bad guys as a submarine.

Another car had a laser in it, and cut a cop car in half, and the top part (with cops inside) went flying down the road.

Gotta love 007:D

007 will drive Aston Martin in Bond 20
marking the 40th anniversary of the franchise.

"LOS ANGELES, CA, August 23, 2001 – James Bond, the legendary British secret agent, will drive an Aston Martin again in the next 007 film it was announced today by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (MGM), Eon Productions, and Aston Martin. The 20th installment of the longest running and most successful franchise in cinema history, produced by Michael G. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli, is due for release in 2002. Bond 20 marks the 40th anniversary of the franchise that began in 1962 with Dr. No. Pierce Brosnan will make his fourth appearance as James Bond in the film, which will be directed by Lee Tamahori (Along Came a Spider, The Edge) and written by Neal Purvis and Robert Wade. Production will begin at Pinewood Studios in January, 2002.
The recently launched V12 Vanquish will be the fourth Aston Martin that Bond has driven. The association with the marque began in 1964 with the film Goldfinger when the DB5 was fitted with “optional extras” such as ejector seats and rockets.

Producers Michael G. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli say, “James Bond and the British Aston Martin car have had a long and successful partnership in our films, and we are delighted to welcome the latest model, the Aston Martin Vanquish, to appear in the 20th film of the series.”

Robert Levin, MGM’s president of Worldwide Marketing and Distribution, adds, “We are thrilled that Bond fans will get to see James Bond back in the Aston Martin – especially for Bond 20, which marks such a momentous milestone in film history.”

Dr. Wolfgang Reitzle, Group Vice President, Ford Motor Company and Chairman, Premier Automotive Group, says: “When people think of James Bond, the first car they think of is Aston Martin. For all of us that love the 007 films, it is great news that Bond is back driving an Aston Martin, this time our latest and most sophisticated model ever. We are also pleased to be working with MGM and Eon Productions, and through the wider support of Ford Motor Company we will be offering our full range of cars to the production.”

Dr. Ulrich Bez, chief executive of Aston Martin Lagonda, says, “I am sure James Bond will recognize some of the styling cues on the Aston Martin Vanquish. He will find it technologically advanced and perfectly suited for the type of work he does today. This agreement comes at a really important time for us. Aston Martin is going through some major changes. The best reflection of this is our new V12 Vanquish, it combines elements from our heritage, but also clearly shows the direction of the companies future.”

The V12 Vanquish is the latest in a long line of cars from one of the most famous names in the motor industry. It is at the leading edge of automotive design and combines an aluminium and carbon fibre body, Formula One-style gearbox, and 460bhp V12 engine. More than 700 cars have already been pre-sold around the world. Deliveries to customers in the USA start in September 2001, with the V12 Vanquish priced at $228,000.

Bond should never have driven a BMW, they are too common. Only the best (British) cars are suitable for the best secret agent in the world!

Pennzoil, you and me think alike my friend! When I realised Bond was going to drive a BMW I thought ‘why?’ Why embarrass himself (in the film) And why embarrass the film heritage and history by driving a BMW? It’s a car for the masses, not the Bond films! BMW should have been laughed at when the thought came about? Using a BMW, it’s okay for say. . . . . a ‘B’ rated film or something boring an common place (Just like the BMW) but not for something like Bond!
You’re very right that only British cars such as Aston Martin, Bentley, Lotus and even TVR should be used! All of these represent the very best in British history etc etc etc, even if foreign companies own them! Just says a lot that they all want to own them!

Aston Man

What car was the one where he got in the backseat and could control it with a little computer screen thing. Like a gameboy or something.

750iL i think, definitely a 7 series anyway

It's a Hornet! The AMX Bond did the cool bridge out/twisty jump in.

BTW, Bond's new ride is an Aston Martin Vanquish. All the magazines were flooded by gearheads and Bond buffs demanding he switch back to the Aston Martin marque whenever they would run an article on any Bondmobile!

She's a sexy bitch!

8.17 min on the "ring"

For the Vanquish? I'd like to see how the new 450hp Cerbera 4.5 chalks up on the Ring.

The Nurburgring is in Nuremburg, is it not? I have also seen it spelt Nuernburg, so I am confused :confused:

the ring = nürburgring= nuerburgring
there´s a place at the ring called Nürburg = Nuerburg

Nuremburg i have never heard of

I guess Nuremburg is our english way of spelling it, like how we call your nation Germany, and you call it Deutschland. I don't understand it personally.

i think you may be getting mixed up with the Nuremburg name. The place called Nurburg is in the middle of the circuit. Its a nice little village/town that my dad always stays in when the racing team goes over to do the 24hour race. As far as i know the town of Nuremburg has something to do with World War II, i remember it from history class.

Yes, in 1935 Germany passed the Nuremburg laws, which deprived jews of their citizenship, and forbid them to marry Germans. After the war, war crime trials were held in Nuremburg, and were used to execute or imprison many German officers and members of the Nazi party.

Wow, how much more off topic can we get?

that should go in the politics forum.

Probably not, I'm trying to become a moderator ;)

007 Cars?

In one of the books, Felix Leiter picks up Bond in either a Studillac or a Fordillac, I don't recall which primarily because I read it so long ago.

Also, for some bizarre reason, I like the 1960 Ford wagon he ride in in the film From Russia With Love.

Hi everybody. I just registered here, and this looks like a great forum. Very professional and friendly. Keep up the great work! I'm just an average city kid, currently i am attending the university of philadelphia and my name is Sam. Just wanted to say hello to you all i hope to have a great time here i guess!
