Aston Martin has just launched a special edition
version of the potent DBS Superleggera to celebrate the 50th anniversary of
James Bond classic On Her Majesty’s Secret Service. Fittingly named “On Her Majesty’s
Secret Service DBS Superleggera”, the British
supercar sports a number of distinctive elements such as diamond turned forged
wheels and carbon fiber splitter and aero blades, a bespoke grille and a special
Olive Green paint scheme.
Inside, customers will be welcomed with pure black
leather trimming accented by grey blend Alcanatara, just like the original
Aston Martin DBS from 1969. There are also a number of red accents found
throughout the cabin, including the glovebox, center console, and seats. Audio
is provided by a Bang & Olufsen BeoSound system complete with a subwoofer
that has an embroidered cover.
“Creating a James Bond special edition is always an
exciting challenge as we work to create a car that embodies the legend of James
Bond, and the original movie car. The DBS Superleggera is a muscular car that
commands attention, but the Olive Green gives it a subtlety that belies the
beast beneath,” Aston Martin vice president and chief creative officer Marek
Reichman said.
Production of the Aston Martin On Her Majesty’s
Secret Service DBS Superleggera will be limited to just 50 units worldwide with
each starting at £ 300,007 (US$ 381,556) and deliveries commencing in the fourth
quarter of this year.
