The Ultimate Crossover: When Cars Meet Spies

Sequel: GoldenEye was the first film bound by BMW's three-picture deal, so the producers were offered BMW's latest roadster, the BMW Z3. Limited edition "007 model" sold out within a day of being available to order.

For the film, a convertible BMW Z3 is equipped with the typical Q refinements, including a self-destruct feature and Stinger missiles behind the headlights.

During the Q Lab scene, James Bond can be seen using an IBM ThinkPad laptop ignoring Q's instructions on the use of a leather belt modified with a piton gun.Director Martin Campbell had 007 fiddling with the laptop as a way to advertise IBM's product.

A modified Omega wristwatch features as a spy gadget device several times in the film, concealing a cutting laser and detonator remote.

GoldenEye was a big succes. The film had a budget of $60 million and made $356.4 million worldwide. Adjusted for inflation, it made the most money of any Bond movie.
