New Bond Film Sets Record by Smashing $37 Million in Aston Martin Cars

New Bond Film

The latest James Bond film ‘Spectre’ can add another bragging right to its already extensive repertoire: It has the record for dollar damage from smashing up and otherwise annihilating perfectly good Aston Martin machines.

The Aston Martin DB10 car was created for use in the James Bond film only.

It is certainly an amusing tidbit to add to any conversation, as Spectre’s stunt coordinator Gary Powell recently did when he told Event magazine: “We set the record for smashing up cars on Spectre. In Rome, we wrecked millions of pounds worth. They were going into the Vatican at top speeds of 110 miles per hour. We shot one entire night for four seconds of film.” read more

Some Say This Is The Raciest Rolls-Royce Ever

Rolls-Royce Wraith

This rich red dish is the Rolls-Royce Wraith. The color red is not exactly the first shade one envisions coating a sophisticated and generally understated luxury vehicle like a Rolls-Royce–but that little visual expectation only seems to add to the intoxicating effect. The color is a special edition named “St. James”, for the patron saint of Portugal and Spain.

The St. James red Wraith pays homage to the patron saint via the rich color, shapely fastback body and name. There are ample chrome accents to glitter in the sun and the iconic suicide doors that have been capturing hearts and raising pulses for decades. The overall curb appeal is polished off with two-tone silver and gloss black wheels. Imagine arriving to any event in this vehicle—the exuberance would be unparalleled. It is highly unlikely to ever join an exotic rental car fleet, but there will always be other Rolls-Royce rentals to enjoy as the new models emerge. read more

Mansory Mercedes-Benz S63

Bursting with power and murdered-out, the Mansory Mercedes-Benz S63 AMG is what many will wish for this holiday season. 

Mansory has been improving upon their already impressive aftermarket tweaking techniques. The Mansory Lamborghini Aventador Carbonado was certainly one of the best versions of the Aventador crafted by an aftermarket tuner—and there were many attempts at that model. The standard Mercedes-Benz S-Class is not as extreme of an exotic sports car as the Lamborghini Aventador, but Mansory’s version left that vision in the rearview via 1,000 HP! read more
