You will need more than one “Goldfinger” to afford one of these rides.
The British luxury car manufacturer Aston Martin, 007’s tour in several of the spy’s films, has just rented its first Manhattan showroom ever – where it can park one of its $ 5 million one-time cars, The Post has learned.
The upcoming “spanning brand experience” in the former Phillips auction house at 450 Park Ave. on the corner of West 57th St. will show off its tricked-out rides, which sell for a minimum of $ 200,000 for a Vantage roadster or its new DBX SUV for up to $ 3.5 million for its Valkyrie hypercars.
The retro Victor, designed by its James Bond-inspired Q department, sold last year for a reported $ 5 million and featured rotating license plates, pop-up machine guns with light and noise (but no projectiles) and rams perfect for getting through the city gravel .
“Aston Martin looks forward to revealing more about its exciting plans and its ambition to create a truly fascinating luxury experience for our customers in one of the most prominent corners of Midtown Manhattan,” said spokesman Paul Garbett, noting: “This is all very preliminary.
The company’s management, founded in 1913, has focused on growing its US market since Canadian billionaire Lawrence Stroll invested in 2020 and corrected his financial ship, which lost millions even before the pandemic.
