Since James Bond is British and the Vanquish has already been used in the last film, I think he should now drive an Aston Martin DB9 or a Bentley Continental GT.

Ill have to agree with toronto. the SLR would be a very exellent choice. Plus the gadgets and weapons they put into the cars couldnt even imagine what they would think of for that thing.

SLR is indeed a good choice, it has some classic lines but it's agressive too.

The Vanquish was the perfect bond car IMO. Beautifull, stylish and a certain presence. But using the same car twice is stupid.

The Continental GT is nice but too big...

Others: maybe the AMV8 or DB9.
Masarati 4200GT
Morgan Aero 8 perhaps...
or that TVR350C

call me a rebel, but i gotta go German again, and the only responsible choice for a man of his taste and stature would obviously be the Porsche 911 Turbo. Who needs gadgets when no one else can catch you?

Just my 0.02

Too bad Lotus doesn't have anything new to show off again. Remember back in the seventies, Bond driving that Espirit? Everybody that I knew that was a car buff loved that car when they showed it on silver screen. Also, if Bond happens to take an assignment in America, he should drive the 2005 GT Mustang..

i love the morgan aero 8, but i think it might have a bit too much of a retro style for bond. i think they should stick with an aston martin.

Don't know check imbd.com ,
/ The SLR is half british (well maybe 10% the Benz took over after they got the layout)
or may b it would b cool if they went over kill and made it an H2, but i think ford signed up for the next 2 movies or somthing, so DB9 or a Jag , or even a Land Rover?

Hahaha.. BMW guys! haha.. just kidding.. its just that the Z3 (which sucked), Z8 (which sucked even more) and the 7-series (which I thought was great) appeared in the shows

I was going to go with Homans and say a 911 as well.. but it's a bit to small for Bond... An Aston Martin would be the way I think (especially with the British heritage)
