For the purposes of Touring of Milan, DB4 and DB5 are designed, but after the proposal was given to Aston Martin but the portion was rejected by Aston Martin as a substitute for DB5 development. Other than that the new car has a longer wheelbase and a higher roof.

One of the issues about the Aston Martin DB5 is to have an aerodynamic tail-end model that will lift when driven faster than 140mph, but if the roof of the car is made longer back than 110mph, even though aerodynamics were not so perfect in the 1960s, With the reverse spoiler on the back will reduce the lift on the back of the car, so the car is more stable in Autobahn speeds.
