Sure, there's the iconic DB5, but what else?
For me, it's this bad boy

kkina^^That would work. My friend in northern Honshu, Japan says he sees a 2000GT on the road every now and then. Apparently a rich doctor owns it.

Toyota chopped two 2000GT coupes into roadsters because Connery was too tall to sit in them.

copaupSkyfall DB5. It isn't even close.
If that one is disqualified then I'd take the DB11. Those Aston Martins are stunners. Of course I'd also need all of Q Branch to keep them running.

.38supersigThe AMC Hornet would be something that could be driven regularly.
If the 2000GT is more of your style, I would rather have this one instead of any of the Bond cars:

rat2306Having a bit of trouble posting it, but my vote is for Diana Riggs' 428 powered '69 Mercury Cougar convertible from "On Her Majesty's Secret Service".

Same. I like the Vantage maybe the most though.

While I really loved the 2000GT back in the day, it isn't in the same league with the Vanquish which is my choice.

sigspecopsAny of the Aston Martins are good but I'd probably want the Lotus Esprit the most. It was one of the first cars that I took notice of and sparked my love of automobiles.

YooperSigsI cringed when Craig rolled the AM in Casino Royale. I want one!
And the Bentley Connery drove in Never Say Never Again was a beautiful classic.

LastCubScoutI'd kinda like this one since a fellow evil Asian drove it, but I admit I'm not big on the idea of a .30 cal Minigun firing 3 feet away from my skull.
