This is an icon of British sports cars in the 1960s. They took the highly regarded DB4 and enhanced its performance. The bodywork was done by Carrozzeria Touring. The tuned inline 6 engine was much more powerful than any of its rivals in its day. And the car was a real pleasure to drive. This is the quintessential Aston Martin, and the price is going nowhere but up!
====Shiro Nakamura====
This classy car represents a merging of Italian and British sensibilities, an icon of 1960s British GT cars. The body is almost identical to the DB4. It was made by Carrozzeria Touring as a Superleggera. The door section without a character line, and the simple side proportions are really classic. Then there are the covered headlights that came from the DB5 reflecting the fashion at the time. The tail fin-like design of the rear end is quite American in style... But then this was an era where Italian design was influenced by American motorcars. It's this classic feel combined with modern details that give the DB5 its character. It really is one of the most unique cars from the DB series. Of course it became famous because of James Bond, but it remains a classic in its own right.
