The Aston Martin DB5 first appeared in a James Bond film in 1964. It was in Goldfinger, starring Sean Connery, that he actually fell in love with the car while filming. So the Scottish actor in the process bought himself a DB5 and entrusted it to famous specialists, not to equip a machine gun and an ejection seat, but to prepare the engine as needed and… Aston in the same color as Bond.
