Ian Fleming released the James Bond novel “Goldfinger” in 1959, and after the success of the first two Bond films there was interest in turning it into a film. In the Goldfinger book, James Bond drove an Aston Martin DB Mark III, but the film’s special effects designer, John Stears, wanted something more modern. Specifically, the new Aston Martin DB5.
