Aston Martin announced as far back as December last year that James Bond would once again drive the new DBS super-sports car in the latest 007 flick, the oddly named Quantum of Solace, and now we have the best footage of the movie car yet as it stars in the second official trailer for the upcoming film. The DBS isn’t the only car worth keeping an eye out for in the new film as the next-gen Ford Ka will also make an appearance in the movie. Click ahead to watch the new trailer in full.
What a beautiful car. Makes me turn my head every time I see one (pretty much every Aston Martin, that is...

hahahah its wearing a funny hat.
on the serious side, looks like the mondeo will make another appearance, this time in estate form!
maybe we'll get to see the DBS for a little more than 40 seconds this time, and hopefully THIS one wont end in absolute tragedy. The movie was over for me when they trashed it last time. I was walking out of the theatre when Daniel Craig was enduring probably the worst torture I've ever seen.

It's a shame there's so much product placement in Bond films. Ford's Mondeo got more screen time than Aston's DBS (it got more screen time than some of the villains even). There should be no place for Ford's "K car" - the Ka - in a James Bond film. Full stop.
I sure hope Bond isn't driving it.

Chris: you missed some very good parts including the best ending of any Bond film ever.
EEE: agree 150% with you. However, after Transformers and Fantastic 4 two - which were basically commercials with bad acting in them - Casino Royale's product placement was done with some restrain. Not that I'm happy about it anyway.

FANTASTIC!!!!!!! Saw one the other day in L.A. Looks nothing like Jaguar.
Daniel Craig is insisting that production company EON fits his Bond car with special tyres during promotional activities. Tyres that will actually be able to handle the amount of horsepower produced by the Aston Martin DBSs he’s cruising around in. After all the crashes that occurred during the shoots… I have a cousin working at EON who told me. I didn’t believe it at first but then he showed me a photo he took with his mobile (check it out). http://img382.imageshack.us/my.php?image=dcs0408kz3.jpg Looks good!
Tyres look cool. And they are definitely an improvement on those used before: http://cache.jalopnik.com/assets/resources/2007/03/007_aston_crash.jpg
I think these are ultrac Sessanta tyres: http://www.vredestein.com/Banden_Bandtypes.asp?UsersessionID=50566828&BandgroepID=1&BandtypeID=3
