A 1964 Aston Martin used in two James Bond movies sold for $4.6 million at a London auction.
The car, complete with guns that poke out through the taillights and a license plate that rotates to display different numbers, was used in Goldfinger and Thunderball, CNNMoney reported.
It's not just a showpiece: the car has a 282-horsepower engine and a top speed of about 145 miles per hour.
The previous owner purchased it in 1969 for $12,000.
