Hmmm, this is a toughy. I would have to say my favourite bond car is the DB5 from Goldfinger/Goldeneye, simply because it is the quintisesential bond car, my favourite chaser car has to be the Ford Taunus from TSWLM, simply for the way it is flung off the road and into the house roof at a near perfect 90 degree angle. The worst bond car: definately the AMC's used in TMWTGG, BURN THEM ALL!

oh, and acronyms, just for the utterly confused:
TSWLM: the Spy Who Loved Me
TMWTGG: The Man With The Golden Gun

just a little thing of detail also, the Car used as a pursuer in Tommorow Never Dies is in fact a black Ford Granada/Scorpio, not a Sierra, and also in A View To A Kill the Baddie also drives a Range Rover.

Why do you hate the AMCs? I thought they were a classic, good-looking car

[IBrake4Rainbows]

AMC, the company, not the car, have a reputation...... Maybe the car is ok, i find it rather ugly however, and it probably handles quite badly, but that's just my opinion.......

[cls12vg30]

Well nowadays AMC's are interesting to me just for the novelty value.

100 % agreed, just because of the rarity of the cabrio version.

[majorglory]

The 1964 Lincoln Continental is in my opinion the coolest of all Bond-cars. It is featured in Goldfinger when a gangster (of course) is being driven by odd-job. The gangster gets shot and the car gets crushed. What a shame!

Well the Z8 and the girls have one thing in common, the most important instruments are in the center.

[Spastik_Roach]

I really like the 2000GT, in my opinion it looks quite similar to a TVR.

I reckon if Back to the future had not used it, the Delorean DMC-12 would have been a Bond car, it just seems like the sorta car he would use, futuristic styling and everything.

Well it was part way there to being a baddies car smuggling drugs
