Best bond car

The aston martin vantage volante in this film is the best bond car IMO.

I get bored when they bring the old 1960's db5 out for all the new daniel craig films. Stop milking it!

Even without the gadgets, it to me is the best looking car bond has had and what a noise it makes!

Volante is one great looking car. They brought back the car most associated with Bond which is Aston Martin. However, I am glad that they gave the audience something different too. Volnate was a bigger car and had a V8 engine. The car looks more powerful, more aggressive looking, yet stylish. Volante was a traditional Bond car with a difference.

As if all the later models who are based on the DB9 design is any better.
Now its like once you have seen one Aston Martin sports car, you have seen them all.
Aston Martin has in general become a rather uninteresting car to look at.
Perhaps its time for Q to give him a Jaguar instead.

A Jaguar would be great.

BTW, after GoldenEye was released, I went to the local BMW dealer to see if I could get a brochure for The Z3. But before I even got a chance to ask, the salesperson said "No, we don't have any more brochures about the James Bond car."

Fasten your seatbelts, it's going to be a bumpy night.

It's also my favourite by far. I don't get what's so special about the ugly DB5.
