    Have to admit, I'm not really keen on giving Bond a virtual 'concept car'. He may have had some expensive cars in the past, but the DB10 is a bit silly.

    I think it's a lot to do with the timing though. The existing models aren't 'new' anymore, but the newly expected models, are too far off to unveil.

    It's too much. Certainly far from something Fleming's Bond would drive.

    FYI...I just picked up 7 of the ten DB10s on eBay. The seller didn't realise that they were going to be in the Bond film and I got them cheap. He's now trying to buy them back from me for 10% over what I paid, but I'm going to sit on them until after the release and then offer them on here first. :v

    After some further analyzing I assumed that maybe the fact why it's such a limited run will be eventually explained in the movie? That it's some sort of a secret project created by Aston Martin & MI6, which results in a car that is strictly made for spy-work. That's why it doesn't look very masculine at the first sight (in comparison to the DBS at least) but under the hood there are tons of gadgets like an EMP gun, oxygen bottles, hardened chasis in order to withstand a granade blow etc. These are gadgets I actually could appreciate in Bond's car. Even the colour, although probably a nod to DB5's Silver Birch, is actually the one that is used most in production cars, so there is always a chance that it will blend in traffic.

    I think it looks fantastic and we've even been given a few hints at "Gadgets" ;)
    I'm really looking forward to it. -{

    In that case I missed those hints! Enlighten me please! :<

    I only recall Mendes saying something like "you will see what it can do in the movie"

    Only a brief interview with Ben Whishaw, but he does say there are more gadgets
    This time, so it might be " Wishful thinking" on my part because on a second
    Listen, he doesn't specifically mention the car. :D
    Here's a few others.

    If you watch the post-announcement interviews, Sam Mendes states the DB10 "does things" in the film, but that he couldn't comment any further. I'm hoping we get a few gadgets from Q Branch to aid Bond :)) :))

    There is something about the design of the DB10, that makes me
    Think they may have benn influenced to some extent by Blofeld's
    Bath-o-sub in DAF. :D
