As a Aston novice, one thing I have not been able to figure out is why DB 5 prices are so much higher than DB 6. Any idea ?

well, it's an older car, and less made
there where 886 DB5 Coupe's build and 1321 DB6 Coupe
with both not counting the Volante's & Shooting Brakes

and the price difference is not too great, you can buy 2 decent DB6's for the price of 1 decent DB5 :mrgreen:

 

[Boxer]

Not sure the production numbers justify the 2X difference in price. Is there anything else that is driving the market ?

how about DB5 = James Bond :wink:

 

[Boxer]

Yes but then an early Lotus Esprit would be worth 10 times what they currently go for.

hmm, true
and those you can pick-up for 10.000 €

Could it be the Sean Connery effect ? Connery DB 5 --- Roger Monroe Lotus Esprit ?

A local mechanic has the exact model from the movie "Moon Racker" and swears the owner will sell it for $30,000. Next time I'm at his shop I'll snap a photo.

What are the prices for a DB5? I thought the DB4 was the holy grail in the Aston Martin world.

I have always thought that the DB 5 was "the" vintage Aston to have. In terms of price, you can download a pricing information from:

[DJ Dirk]

THE road Aston to have is a DB4GT Zagato :wink:

bond didn't use a car in Moonraker

you are thinking of Goldfinger, that's the one with the DB5, and that car also appears in the beginning of GoldenEye

 

[DJ Dirk]

BTW

here's one of the actual Goldeneye DB5's

 

[Andrew]

I will email the person that has the car. It could have been in the movie The Living Daylights, but I believe he said Moon Raker. In Moon Raker was there an Aston parked at MI-6 that Bond never actually drove?

 

[DJ Dirk]

that i can't remember

in the living daylights he drove an Aston V8 Volante & Vantage
that was the best one with Timothy Dalton

DB 5 values

They made an awful lot more of the Lotus' than they did with a DB5. That and along with the James Bond part is key to the value. A Lotus is a nice car but not hand made to the extent an early Aston was.
A shooting brake is not a DB4 Zagato but is an estate wagon or better known as a station wagon. They are very rare as very few were ever made of any model.

[Boxer]

A Shooting Brake is what would be called a Station Wagon in the US.

Sorry I should have read all of the post that was right above mine.
