About the 1963 Aston Martin DB5 Coupe
The DB5 represents Aston Martin at its zenith, combining Touring's elegant Superleggera bodywork with genuine grand touring performance. Launched in 1963, this Italian-styled beauty housed a 4.0-liter straight-six producing 282 horsepower, enough for a genuine 150 mph top speed. While 1,021 examples were built over three years, the DB5's immortality came courtesy of Sean Connery's James Bond, transforming it from exclusive GT into cultural icon. The Goldfinger and Thunderball cars featured ejector seats and rotating number plates, but the standard DB5 needed no gadgets to captivate. Today's collectors prize original matching-numbers examples, particularly the 123 Vantage variants with triple Weber carburettors. Recent auction results show exceptional cars commanding seven figures, with provenance and originality driving values. The DB5 remains the definitive Aston Martin, equally at home on the Riviera or concours lawn.
