The car was part of an auction dedicated to memorabilia from Spectre, including a day of the dead costume that sold for 98,500 pounds and a signed copy of the music sheet and vinyl single of the movie’s theme song, “Writing’s On the Wall,” by Sam Smith.

The DB10 offered inspiration for the upcoming DB11 which is going to be released at the upcoming 2016 Geneva Motor Show.
