My GT7 Log: Know Your Legends - The Aston Martin DB5

Let's get to know about the legendary cars that are hard to get in Gran Turismo 7's Legend Cars not only because of their extreme rarity that appears once in a blue moon but also their outrageous price tag that takes almost forever to save one. Today, let's get to know about the Aston Martin DB5, the legendary Bond car.


Served as the successor of the DB4, the DB5 is powered by a 4.0L six-cylinder engine generating 282 bhp (210 kW) of power and a top speed of 145 mph (233 km/h). It was mated with a ZF five-speed transmission (except for some of the very first DB5s). This car became the hallmark of the partnership between Aston Martin and the 007 franchise ever since the DB5 appeared in Goldfinger. In addition, the DB5 appeared in numerous Bond movies such as Goldeneye, Casino Royale, Skyfall, Spectre, and recently, No Time to Die.



The DB5 will do a quick lap around the Goodwood Motor Circuit but how fast will it go? Let's roll the tape.


It did it in 1:39.905. Mission accomplished for the Bond car.

What other hard-to-get legendary cars should I drive next? Stay tuned for more.
