Aston Martin James Bond car -- product placement everyone wants

September 15, 2008 |  4:32 pm

After years of growing sophistication in movies, from plot and dialogue to special effects (films like “American Pie” notwithstanding), we still love a good car chase. And the revitalized Bond franchise delivers the goods. Here is a fresh new trailer for the new movie “A Quantum of Solace.”

It’s hard to tell which is the best looking, Daniel Craig, co-star Olga Kurylenko (who even sounds like a character in a Bond film) or the Aston Martin DBS. Especially since the DBS is looking rather shaken and stirred during a high-speed sequence on a dirt track with bullets flying everywhere. But there should be something for everyone in there.

The new Bond film comes out Nov. 14 and the DBS is no doubt available at all Aston Martin dealers, priced at $265,000 — without the Secret Service gadgets.
