Aston Martin proudly unveils the DB12 Goldfinger Edition, an exclusive creation by the brand’s bespoke personalisation service, Q by Aston Martin, in celebration of 60 years of Aston Martin’s iconic association with the James Bond franchise. Limited to just 60 units worldwide, this ultra-luxurious edition honors the legendary partnership that began with the 1964 film Goldfinger, when the DB5 first graced the silver screen, forever cementing Aston Martin’s place in cinematic history.
A Golden Tribute to a Cinematic Legend
The DB12 Goldfinger Edition exudes sophistication, starting with its eye-catching Silver Birch paint—a direct homage to the original DB5 from Goldfinger. Featuring 21″ multi-spoke wheels in a unique silver finish, black brake calipers, and bespoke gold side strakes, this edition ensures a striking presence. The signature Aston Martin logo is reimagined in silver and black enamel, while the bright chrome ‘Q’ fender badge confirms its custom touches.
Luxury Meets 007 Style
Inside, the DB12 Goldfinger Edition continues its tribute with Sports Plus seats finished in classic DB5 fluted styling and a Prince of Wales check perforation pattern, reminiscent of James Bond’s iconic suit. Gold-plated interior accents grace the drive mode dial, gear selector, and roller controls, all drawing inspiration from the golden tracking device used by Bond in the Goldfinger film. To further delight Bond enthusiasts, an ‘eight of hearts’ card, seen in a key scene of Goldfinger, is subtly embroidered on the driver’s sun visor.
Exclusive Gifts for Owners
Each DB12 Goldfinger Edition comes with a selection of bespoke gifts, including a custom car cover, a Silver Birch Speedform model, and a limited edition of Aston Martin’s 1/60 Goldfinger magazine. Owners will also receive a 35mm film section from the iconic Furka Pass scene in Goldfinger, all presented in a luxurious Globe-Trotter attaché case, mirroring the car’s design. Adding an extra touch of indulgence, owners will be gifted a magnum of 2007 vintage Champagne Bollinger with exclusive Bollinger 007 glasses.
