car—which rolled off the line in 2020—featured a number of James Bond-inspired gadgets, including a rear smoke screen delivery system, a rear "simulated" oil slick delivery system, triple revolving number plates in the front and rear, as well as simulated twin front machine guns (because the real things require a little more red tape to acquire).

Suitable for a drive down the Southfield Freeway, this Bond tribute car sported a bullet-resistant rear shield, as well as front and rear battering rams for pushing through rush hour gridlock.

It also had simulated tire slashers and an optional removable passenger seat roof panel—likely for an aftermarket ejector seat, if owners are so inclined.

Gadgets galore in the Aston Martin DB5

Inside the DB5 Goldfinger Continuation, you find a simulated radar screen tracker map (though this could easily be supplanted by a contemporary GPS system or your phone's map app).

In a throwback to the age before smartphones, the vehicle features a telephone located in the driver's door.

Rounding out the super secret agent-inspired interior is a hidden weapons and storage tray under the seat and a remote control for all those gadgets.

The cars feature DB5-styled aluminum exterior body panels over an authentic DB5 mild steel chassis structure. A 4.0-liter naturally aspirated inline six-cylinder engine with a six-plug head, three SU carburetors and an oil cooler, generates around 290 horsepower.

The rear-wheel drive DB5 also features a five-speed ZF manual transmission and a mechanical limited-slip differential.

Where can I get an Aston Martin DB5?

They're presumably already accounted for, unfortunately, and they'd likely be out of your reach anyway. Aston Martin made just 25 of the new vehicles.

And it's for good reason, as these 25 cars required 4,500 hours of assembly time according to the automaker. It shows in the price, as each unit sold for $4.6 million.

The original DB5 didn't have a wide production run either, as only 900 examples were built between 1963 and 1965, according to Aston Martin. They were also road-legal, unlike this special model.

This special edition is based on the "modified" model driven by Her Majesty's Secret Service agent in the 1964 James Bond film "Goldfinger." That original DB5 was stolen from an airport hangar in 1997 and hasn't been seen since.
