Intake: An Aston Martin DB5 Vantage coupe, convertible, and shooting brake are being offered for sale by British specialist Nicholas Mee. Of the 1000 DB5s built by Aston Martin, just 70 were the more powerful four-liter Vantage editions. Only 11 were built as shooting brakes, and five as convertibles, making this collection like a little herd of unicorns. The coupe is finished in Silver Birch, the convertible is Caribbean Pearl Blue and the shooting brake’s hand-built aluminum body was painted in California Sage by renowned coachbuilders Harold Radford & Sons. All have been restored to as-new condition. It took the current owner 12 years to gather this collection, and now it could be yours. If you have $5.6M to spare.

Exhaust: The Hagerty Price Guide reveals that a concours-quality DB5 Vantage coupe would fetch $1.3M, while a drophead in the same condition is worth $2.45M. The shooting brake, meanwhile comes in at $1.45M, which would bring the total to $5.2M. Consider the extra $400,000 as saving you 12 years of searching.
