Last month, we got word that Christie's would be auctioning off James Bond's very own Aston Martin DB10 that co-starred with Daniel Craig in SPECTRE. At that point in time, it was expected that the car would probably go for between $1.4 million and $2.1 million. At that point in time, we thought that was a pretty hefty sum of money.

Today, that DB10 sold for approximately $3.5 million, proving again the unpredictable nature of auctions. However, besides being one of only 10 built, this particular DB10 is also the only one to be released for public sale by Aston Martin, according to Christie's. It also bears Daniel Craig's signature. So, yeah, it's very special.

With a 4.7-liter V8 making 420 horses and an honest-to-goodness manual transmission, Bond's Aston is most assuredly a runner. It also previews the future design language of the next generation of Aston Martins, so the lucky new owner, with his or her moneybags considerably lighter, can be satisfied with the knowledge that they own a cornerstone of the Aston Martin design lineage. One that just happens to be equipped with machine guns and an ejector seat.
