Inspired by Agent76's Your Favorite (film) Bond Car? thread, I thought I would start a "Favorite Book Car" thread. I realize many of you might not know the book cars, but vote anyway!

Hmmm... I don't thinks so. There's only one vote for the SAAB 900 and that was cast by me. This is the second time something like this has happened. I wonder if our polls are working correctly? People do know NOT to hit View Results before you vote because that will prevent you from voting. And be careful you don't hit it by mistake. Is that maybe what you did, Commander?

Seems to be working fine now.
I just re-read FSS over the holidays and was reminded of why I liked the Saab. Although the Jag Benson has him in is a worthy (albeit contemporary) rival. I'm planning on starting IB next just to re-read my favorite chapter "Silver vs. Yellow" again.  A tip of the hat to the original Bentley though. *tips hat*  "When it comes to Bond, You've gotta do it" "There's a reason spies don't have many parties. Everyone has a history with everyone else."

No prob, Commander.
Check out the pic of the Bentley Mulsanne Turbo I found. You know, I'm thinking a main page article about the cars from the books might be a fun idea. If anyone has good pics of the cars listed above, post them here. If I use it, I'll credit you. Thanks.

I too voted for the Saab...it's a lean mean fighting machine, just like Bond.

A quick snapshot from a distance of a DB III.
When Flicka & I took in the Ferrari show during our recent trip, there was one AM in the mix. It's a DB Mk. III though. Identical to the one Bond drives in the novel Goldfinger.

While I haven't read all the books, I picked the Bently 4 1/2-Litre. It's such a classic car.
Here's sort of what I always pictured the car as:
