Think you're as suave as James Bond, or that you can drive as wildly as he did in the opening to 1995's GoldenEye? Later this summer, you'll at least be able to buy his car, as the 1965 Aston Martin DB5 used in the movie is going up for auction.

This particular car will be auctioned by Bonhams at its Goodwood Festival of Speed Sale in July. On-screen, Bond (played by Pierce Brosnan) drove the DB5 in a race against villain Xenia Onatopp, who was piloting a Ferrari F355. Bonhams estimates the car will sell for between £1.2 million and £1.6 million, the equivalent of $1.6 million to $2.1 million. Bonhams says this particular car has been displayed at Britain's National Motor Museum and London's Bond In Motion exhibition. It'll hit the auction block on July 13.
