But one car in particular, the 1964 Aston Martin DB5, is known as the “the Bond car.”The Bond car that the late actor Sean Connery first drove in the 1964 film “Goldfinger” was an Aston Martin DB5 replete with gadgets like machine guns, an ejector seat and an oil slick maker. The car will be offered at Broad Arrow Group’s Monterey, California, auction on August 18, the company told CNN Business. A 1964 Aston Martin DB5 in this car’s pristine condition would ordinarily be worth about $1 million even if Connery had never been anywhere near it, according to Hagerty. (Hagerty, a company that tracks collectible car values, is also a major investor in the recently founded Broad Arrow Group.) During his life, Connery had often told his children of his fond memories of driving the Aston Martin in films, his son Jason Connery said in an interview.
