Aston Martin Pays Tribute To 60 Years Of Bond Legacy With The DB12 Goldfinger Edition

Aston Martin proudly unveils the DB12 Goldfinger Edition to celebrate the 60th anniversary of Aston Martin and the James Bond film franchise. The marque’s bespoke personalization service, Q by Aston Martin, created this exclusive vehicle.

The DB5 made its unforgettable cinematic debut when Goldfinger was released in 1964. The vehicle stunned fans with its sleek yet powerful performance while equipped with numerous gadgets to support Bond’s missions. The DB12 Goldfinger Edition incorporates subtle touches from the Goldfinger Film, including its iconic Silver Birch exterior finish, made famous by the DB5. The ultra-luxury vehicle also promises to provide a more indulgent James Bond driving experience.

The DB12 Goldfinger Edition makes a statement with its 21” multi-spoke wheels, which feature a unique silver color with a diamond finish. These wheels are paired with black brake calipers, bespoke gold side strakes, and a distinctive silver and black Aston Martin logo. It also includes a ‘Q’ badge on the fender to confirm its bespoke touches.

The inside of the vehicle also incorporates Bond-inspired details, such as the Sports Plus leather seats styled with classic DB5 fluting and featuring a Prince of Wales check perforation pattern reminiscent of a classic James Bond suit. This pattern extends to the door inserts, headliner, and unique treadplate. The interior also includes 18k gold-plated accents on the drive mode rotary dial, roller controls, and a notched gear selector inspired by Bond’s gold tracking device. Gold metal fibers weaved into the 2X2 Twill Gloss Carbon Fibre add to the luxurious interior.

Apart from its elegant and iconic style, the ultra-luxury vehicle also delivers in terms of performance.
