James Bond's car -- really, the James Bond car --will be going up for auction in January. Cars custom-built for Al Capone and Hank Williams, Jr. will also be for sale at the same event.

The 1964 Aston Martin DB5 driven by the character James Bond in the movies Goldfinger and Thunderball will be sold to the highest biddder at RM Auctions' Vintage Motor Cars in Arizona to be held in Scottsdale, Ariz., on Jan. 20, 2006.

The car is one of four created for the films and for promotional use. The car has a variety of optional equipment for both offensive and defensive purposes.
