alright i just saw casino royale and jesus the dbs stole the show, i duno if yeall read taht dbs review on topgear.com but it doesnt really get that much screen time, however it made the very very best of what it had. first off the db9 IMO is probably one of the best looking cars in a long time and the cahges to the dbs are for the better, bust most important is that SOUND. its amazing, best sound IMO. either way go out and see for yourself you wont be dissapoited

When does Bond drive the Ford Mondeo?
And what is the plot. I heard its when Bond has to prevent a terrorist from winning in a Casino. Kind of stupid, IMO.

Connor, you seem a little excited, but please slow down a little and check your writing, I got a lost a few times with some words.
As for the DBS, I have yet to see the movie, and probably will not until it reaches DVD. To me, an Aston Martin is an Aston Martin anyway you look at it(at least 90% of all the models ever made). Sexy, sleek, powerful, and growls a beautiful note in the exhaust department, and the DBS is no different, just stunning.

Havent seen the show yet but I'm pretty sure the DBS would be one hell of a car, after all, its an Aston Martin! Sadly that car was flipped over if I'm not mistaken...

Well I have a watched the movie and it's sweet... A really amazing bond movie. Daniel Craig does a great job really. There isin't really any gadgets in the movie though and they don't even have Q come in(well it's jean cleese but I still call him Q). The animated pat they always have at the start of bond movies is by far the best out of every bond movie. Everyone should see the movie it's sweet.
When does Bond drive the Ford Mondeo?
It's called product placement. Ford's paying for it. There's alot of that in the movie.

Yes the DBS is an amazing car if you want to see it there's pictures all over the internet. I saw pictures before I saw the movie. Best james bond car ever by far... he actualy drives two austin martins in the movie the other one is older though I think it's an 85 but I'm not sure. When the DBS was crashed me and the guy next to me did fake crying for a bit:D. (It was a joke clearly)
yahoo critics gave it an A-.and rarely does any movie get an A.
I've seen alot of critic reviews they are all amazing
And what is the plot. I heard its when Bond has to prevent a terrorist from winning in a Casino. Kind of stupid, IMO.
Well you should SEE THE MOVIE TO FIGURE OUT!!! Your kinda right but you really need to see the movie to understand(or I'd have to explain everything to you and I don't want to spoil it for anyone who'll watch it)
it sounds like a awesome movie, i cant wait to watch it.. like, seriously i wanna watch it bad, but its not out here for a while yet... well it's possible you could get it off limewire or something.
PS: I'm a crazy Bond fan if you havn't noticed :D

Hope I could enjoy the show in the theaters .
The theater's speaker is way lot better and the car should sound very good indeed. I've seen the trailer but Bond waste the DBS just for a girl .
I've watch a lot of Bond movies recently because there was a marathon for the Bond show . I'm gonna watch The Living Daylights at StarMovie .

I've heard many opinions on the movie, some good, some bad, although it won't stop me from seeing this movie. As for the car, it sounds awesome, although I'm going to cringe when I see it flip.

Seeing things getting destroyed is a great experience. The bigger and more expensive, the better.
I used to be like "oh nose" when Eleanor got destroyed in Gone In 60 Seconds, but all In all I was just lying to myself, really.
Bond cars are bullet/fire/damage and explosion proof anyway, aren't they? The Vanquish in one of the newer Bond movies was also waterproof.

Even though the Bond cars ar etough..I'm pretty sure they get damaged in flips and that kind of thing, and on the preview it looked like it was damaged. I don't know for sure, though.

the dbs appears in the movie twice..........
its good they got the 1964 DB5 in there though
and ford payed millions for the mondeo in it and sony paid millions cause if you pay attention all the laptops are VAIOs and the cameras are sony and the phones are sony ericsson.
wonderful thing adveritsement
stupid thing really
the biggest advert movie ever is castaway (i think)
with tom hanks in it its all based on fedex
also look at the fed ex logo there is actually an arrom between the e and the x

Koenigseggs Rock, i was just about to bring the FedEx thing up. My brother told me about it and now that is the first thing i see in the logo. Im serious, if you see it once, then that will be the first thing you see from now on.

The DBS is awesome. I love the first shot of it, it's one of the best looking cars I've ever seen. I love it when he floors it out of the Casino, and the chase is awesome, it sounds brilliant too.
Respect Aston, and the DB5 is awesome too.

Nov 19, 2006, 4:36 PM
chase??
what chase?

Nov 19, 2006, 4:39 PM
Well, not the chase as such, where the Bond girl gets kidnapped and Bond's chasing La Chiffre in his Jag XJ.

Holy hell hole, here I was trying to figure out what the hell an arrom was! I was like 'Arrom...what the hell is that?'. I stared at the space between the e and the x, i googled the word arrom, and was just about to put it into dictionary.com! Hahaha!
Anyway, I think the general consensus is that the DBS is a damn awesome car that gets little positive coverage in Casino Royale, which is a damn shame :p

God I know. Like people think they know everything about cars and all that....it's slightly insulting.
Like, when you ask all these kids what car they want it's always ''Ferrari Enzo'' or something along those lines, and then other kids chip in saying ''Oh yes, did you know that the Enzo was called the Enzo because his son was driving it and he crashed!''
And I'm like ''No that was the Dino you idiot'' but people will just think I'm weird if I just blurt out stuff like that, so I don't, but it wouldn't harm to say an Enzo was an Enzo, named after the founder of the actual company.

There are a whole bunch of people at my school who think Maserati's and Ferraris are the best cars in the world. There are so many cars out there that are better than both of them for much less. For the Quattroporte you could get a VW Phaeton or HSV Grange. Both are cheaper and have better interiors if you ask me. They also said Maserati was great because it was the poor mans Ferrari. What the hell is that meant to mean? The new 911 Turbo could beat pretty much Ferrari's entire model range when it comes to performance or practicality. Whats even funnier is that 2 hours later when a 3200 GT went past they didn't even notice. I doubt they could tell a 355 from a Tesstarosa either.

Yesterday on the bus, some 5th grade kids were having a huge discussion about the Skyline. They said it was the fastest car in the world and that it was "faster than the Lamborghini!"
God bless my mental problems. If it weren't for those, I'd hit them båstards... really hard with something heavy.

Theres nothing more annoying to me than people who act like they know everything there is to know about a subject but only really know the names. The Ferrari Enzo was brought up in art today. Saying it was the fastest quarter mile car ever made. I really wanted to yell at them that for that. 40K aussie for a new SS plus another 10K in mods will get you faster. Plus there are cars like the Weineck (spelling) Cobra and CCR.

God I know, with the amount of stuff I've learnt on here, I could prawn anybody in car knowledge and leave them with a facial expression something like this: :eek:
And it's always the Ferrari Enzo. It's like the most superior car ever made to kids who don't know what they are talking about. Ferrari this, Ferrari that. If anybody had the slightest clue as to how aerodynamics, downforce and all the other factors that affect speed they would know that a rear wing does help downforce, and the Ferrari does not have one of them.
They're just too stupid for their own good. Luckily my close friends know a lot about cars, but sometimes they don't know as much as they think they do, I thought I knew a hell of a lot before I joined this, but in all honesty I did know not a lot, but now I've learnt and I can still outword some friends, and sometimes they lose track of what I'm on about...

ya really, i joined here to talk about cars in front of people that know about cars, all my friends think they no everything about cars. Like my friend goes to me and is like My mom's s4 can smoke you 350Z. Im all like "hey, buddy, first off, it's your moms s4, and not yours, second off, your moms s4 handels like a van, where as my 350 carves the corners. All i need to do is just twin turbo my 350 and add some mods, and your mom's s4 is a speck in my mirror"
