On Jan. 9, 1965, the James Bond movie “Goldfinger” opened in American theaters, showing of the Aston Martin Silver Birch DB5 sports car.

Aston Martins would appear in many Bond films, but no Bond car has quite matched the style and elegance of the DB5 (totally our opinion). The elegant coupe also made appearances in “Thunderball” and “GoldenEye.” The film “Die Another Day” featured Pierce Brosnan in an Aston Martin V12 Vanquish, and the Daniel Craig version of “Casino Royale” featured an Aston Martin DBS.

The Silver Birch DB5 makes another appearance near the end of “Skyfall,” the most recent Bond film.

Take a look at the iconic car chase and take a few minutes to enjoy the thrill of the chase once again.
