You don't have to be a tuxedo-wearing, dry martini-drinking (shaken, not stirred), MI-6 super spy to drive a classic DB5 Aston Martin. CarsUK.net reports that Sir Paul McCartney's 1964 Aston Martin DB5 recently sold at auction for £307,000 (around $490,000 USD).
This price may seem a little steep, but let's see what is included in that price. A custom leather interior with embroidered musical notes, adjustable rear shocks, chrome wire wheels, and the kicker; a record player so you can spin some 45's while crusing around in arguably the classiest car in automobile history.
This car was custom ordered and purchased new in 1964 just before the big Beatles world tour. It was completely restored recently and I'm certain this car has lived a pampered life and been host to many icons and celebrities.
