A $300 thousand each, that's a pretty penny for the movie. But hey, it's the highest grossing Bond movie yet, so no worries (also the only Bond movie where it ever rains).

What car does Bruce give himself after he's given God's powers in "Bruce Almighty"?

Back to Bond for a second, did you know that when they finally did roll the Aston Martin, it rolled 7 times, and set a world record. It is supposedly in the Guinness Book of Records.

Also, while they were testing the setup, they started out with a BMW and had no problem rolling it. When they stepped up to the Aston Martin, they had a bit of difficulty, thus the cannon behind the driver's seat. And they had something like 10 cameras following the sequence so they wouldn't have to do a retake. (providing the car did roll)
