Mustang was a cast iron V8, the Aston a straight aluminum 6. The Mustang used the running gear of the Ford Falcon saloon. It was just new on the market in the film.
@NearAbbeyRoad Actually...the mustang that year had 2 straight 6 engines, along with a 289 V8 option. What i was saying was I believe I read this particular mustang was actually a 6 cyl.
I could be. The whereabouts of the car can be tracked on- line on the DVLA's web site. type in the British registration number. The "B" at end means it is 1964.
"You know you're lucky to be alive!" - Contrary to popular belief, he wasn't referring to the 'crash' we just witnessed, he was actually referring to the fact that she was driving an American car on a road like that in the first place. It's amazing how she kept it on the tarmac for as long as she did!
Bit of trivia for you: David Brown was a British company that made tractors and gearboxes. I understand they purchased Aston Martin many years ago. Hence the initials DB5.

The DB5 will always be remembered as THE James Bond car... My father and my uncles had a toy James Bond DB5, it's still at my grandma's house and even though I most of the time prefer the early 70's american muscle car toys they had as well, I would play with it quite often (yes, girl that used to play with toy cars, weird uh?)
But wtf, ruining a mustang to hit on a girl! What an ass!!!!
(XD yeah I know the movie, I was saying this only for kiddin around, no flame pleez)
@ninjadance I would rather have the Aston Martin than the Mustang. And no Aston Martins are not any more problematic than any other British car of its time or for that mater than any other 1960s car including American makes. . I have owned and currently still own classic 1960s British cars and drive them on a regular base without issue.
There is some speculation this is why Ralph Nader led the ban against eared knockoffs that came on english and Isports cars of the 1950s and 1960s although I doubt there is any truth to that. I have the three eared ones on my MGC .
The Aston Martin DB5 is a "man's car". That turn on the corner took some muscle as these cars had no power steering and were not sports cars as such but Grand Touring cars. the good old days when men were men
The cars today are no doubt more reliable and provide more comfort than anything the 1960s had to offer. I recall riding in my dad's mustang a couple of toys. Now my kids have Ipods, videos and toys they take with them in plenty of comfort. I recall some of the horrible wrecks because of the speed limit and the lack of safety built into the cars. Although I do have an MGC-GT its a tin can compared to my 2008 TT
I drive a Zodiac III. Unsafe AND slow, the perfect package. I don't care though, it looks awesome and is probably the most comfortable car I've ever been in.
DB5 is a very expensive luxury sports car. The cute Mustang was based on the cheap to produce Ford Falcon. There is no comparison between the two. It would be like comparing a 2010 Aston Martin to a 2010 Mustang. Two completely different class of cars.
@jandj402 Im British and I would agree with you but the latest Corvettes are good cars that have been engineered very well and look great (Z06 and ZR1) among the best looking cars on the planet
Wonderful! The mustang has more power but doesn't go round corners? The ASTON, not austin, was a DB5 Vantage 314 bhp, 3310 lbs, The 'stang was a 65? The largest engine was a 289 hi-po 271 bhp in a 3000lb car. The 305 bhp wasn't available until 1967 model year,one year after the movie was made. Considering the 'stang handles like most American cars it is not suprising it got whipped. By the way I watched GT350's getting whipped by 4 bangers in the sixties so this 6 cylinder.... well.
My sources have the mustang used in that movie was a regular 289 (probably an A-code) rather than the Hi-Po 289, the K-code. And as somebody that drove a 1st gen Mustang myself, they are not good cornering cars. Why do 1st gen owners often put Mustang II front suspensions in them? ;-)
But a modded 1st gen mustang still is fun to drive in a straight line. :)

shitty austin is no match for this mustang. it was shelby equipped with a tuned 289cid windsor V8. has 305hp and 300+ ft/lbs. austin was also heavier and more expensive. snobby car. uk-people thought they could built a car with only six cylinders and call it a sports car. HAHAHA

Standard Aston Martin DB5 standard coupe used in film: 141 mph

It accelerates a bit faster though... 7,8 to 8,1.
