In what represents James Bond in late 80's, and at the time of Timothy Dalton, wow. This car is outstanding, and could very well be my favorite. The most amazing gadgets came along with this one, and WAS the Timothy Dalton Bond car. The car chase scene with Kara Milovy was terrific, and very suspenseful.
This car remains one of the very best, if not the best. |
