007's Aston Martin DB5 to star at 2013 Auto Show in Detroit

08-Dec-2012 • Event

James Bond's famous Aston Martin DB5 will be making the trip across the pond to the 2013 North American International Auto Show in Detroit, January 14-18.

Also at the show, a "Bond Girl" will point out the gadgetry that Q installed to help outwit the evil Auric Goldfinger--including revolving license plates, the rear tail lamps that emit a nasty oil slick, a rear bullet-proof screen, front wing machine guns, and of course the unforgettable tire slashers and passenger-side ejector seat.

Now in its 25th year as an international event, the NAIAS is among the most prestigious auto shows in the world, providing unparalleled access to the automotive products, people and ideas that matter most-up close and in one place. Administered by Executive Director Rod Alberts, the NAIAS is one of the largest media events in North America, and the only auto show in the United States to earn an annual distinguished sanction of the Organisation Internationale des Constructeurs d'Automobiles, the Paris-based alliance of automotive trade associations and manufacturers from around the world.
