    OHMSS is, imo, the best bond movie. :pac:
    (Caution: I am somewhat of a Bond fanatic!)

    And of course it has a smashing DBS!

    good thread :)
    think we should keep it going ................
    any more ???

    note the nr 5 "Le Mans" shot shows Steve McQueen in a US (!) spec 1970 Porsche 911S on German Plates.
    It was bought by the production company specifically for the movie, and McQueen, who actually owned an exact same spec 1969 model at the time, took this 1970 car back to the states with him after the movie. He sold this 1970 model a couple of years later and kept the 69 car. I believe his son still owns the 69 car.

    450SEL 6.9 yes. Set in the USA (see the US sh1tbox the W116 is pushing off the road :D), but no Robert the Niro. 90s US film by top Hollywood US director but several of the soundtrack songs are in German!

    Apologies for the poor quality picture - couldn't find a better one :o
