If you’re a “James Bond” addict and have a spare $3.5-million you’re itching to spend…listen up.
Aston Martin’s gearing up to release a group of gadget-laden “continuation” cars modeled after Bond’s 1964 DB5. Gadgets already locked-in are a rotating license plate, smoke screen, oil slick sprayer (that sprays water), “machine guns” (or an effect that looks like them, anyway), bulletproof screen, front and rear battering rams, and an interior that has all the bells, whistles, and controls you need.
Thing is? Most of the 25 cars have already been spoken for, but there’s still a shot for you…just keep in mind, it’s not street-legal – because machine guns.
