Why it matters
The DB10 is one of very few cars a manufacturer has designed and built purely for a film: Aston Martin created it for Spectre and never put it into production. Only ten were made, most of which were wrecked during filming.
How rare is it?
Six separate kinds of rarity – never combined into one number.
Each kind of rarity is rated separately and never combined.

02Production & history
Production
Every figure says what it counts.
| What is counted | Figure | Basis | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| Total model productionDB10s built: 8 for filming, 2 show cars | 101,2 | Factory production | Registry reported |
Independent counts (e.g. engine and colour) are never combined into a calculated figure. Surviving examples are never presented as original production.
History
Director Sam Mendes unveiled the DB10 at Pinewood Studios in December 2014 as filming of Spectre began. Designed under Marek Reichman, it used a longer, wider version of the V8 Vantage chassis and the 430bhp V8 of the Vantage S with a manual gearbox. Ten were built: eight for filming, most of which were destroyed in stunts and chase scenes, and two show cars.
One show car, signed by Daniel Craig, was sold at Christie's in London in February 2016 for about £2.4 million, more than double its reserve, with proceeds going to Médecins Sans Frontières. It is not road legal.
