Aston Martins - my personal favorite SupercarsIn the car industry, a highly-revered British manufacturer will probably be the legendary Aston Martin. The high-end carmaker races in prestigious competitonsjust like the 12 Hours of Sebring, 24 Hours N?rburgring, as well as others with the DBRS9. It is indeed a fast car. With its aluminum frame and carbon fiber composite body panels (except the roof, which is aluminum), the DBR9 is light, tipping the scale at 1,280 kg. With a 6L V-12 600 hp powerplant, this car effortlessly goes from 0-60 mph within 3.4 seconds and reach 198 mph.When first entering motorsports competition, a handful of independent racing teams entered competiton in the Aston Martin DBRS9 having the full backing of the factory itself. Since that time the car has won a Teams? Championship (2006 Le Mans Series), 2006 FIA GT Championship Spa 24 Hours race in the GT3 class, and a Drivers Championship in the 2006 Le Mans Series. Pretty good to have a competition car that's first made in this millenium.Aston Martin diecast model carsBut since we're going over Aston Martin, the very first thing to think of is James Bond's. Goldfinger, the debut Bond movie in 1964, initially brought the master spy to the fans. A big part of the film is the car assigned to Bond and outfitted by Q for special service, specifically a 1964 Aston Martin DB5. Henceforth, James Bond with his fantastic Aston Martin are actually linked to each other by fans.diecast Aston Martin DBR9The Aston Martin DB5 is more than just a luxuriously detailed car, but it is also powerful. The DB5 came with a highly robust 3995 cc Tadek Marek I6 engine that can produce 282 bhp at 5500 rpm. The package allows the DB5 to get up to 142 mph and go from 0-60 mph within 7.1 seconds. Of course, the Bond movie version of the Aston Martin supercar had cool gadgets like bullet shields and pop-out gun barrels.diecast Aston Martin DB5The DB5's legend and following carry on today. In 2010, one of the DB5s outfitted and used in the debut movie sold at an auction for $4.6 million to an American collector. Considering that more James Bond movies should be upcoming, this price will no doubt increase in time.
