I think that might be it. How did I not think of that?
1) Have we crossed paths before?
"I think we've met."
2) I fit rather well into this lineup, don't I?
The 750 is among the luxury vehicles to pull up in front of Carver's HQ during the launch party.
3) Am I a precursor of what's to come? It's quite possible.
The "tough" Bond girl. It's a far fetched theory, I'll admit. This can also apply to the advancements of technology that includes on-board voice navigation systems, which went on to accompany an increasing number of cars in the coming years.
4) I played a witness in a case of mistranslation.
Bond tells the German valet "Lass dich nicht verarschen," which is translated in the film as "Don't let her push you around." In actuality, the correct translation of the phrase would be "Don't let her take you for a ride."
5) I seem to share a similar attribute with a fellow Bond henchman.
Both the female voice and Mr. Stamper appear to be of German ancestry.
6) Unbeknownst to many viewers, Bond seems to have forgotten something I held for him.
In the deleted scene that was meant to follow the car chase, Bond exclaims to the Avis woman that he "left the keys in the car" when handing her the insurance waiver.
7) It would appear that I like it bossy.
"Please shut your mouth."
"Reduce speed, now!"
8) I don't seem to greet newcomers with the same civility as I did Bond.
She prompts the valet to 'shut his mouth'. At no point did she approach Bond with this amount of hostility.
9) You think you can break me?
Stamper's goons try to break into the vehicle using everything at their disposal in a somewhat failed attempt.
10) My final destination was a rather ironic one.
The 750 veers off the roof of the parking garage and crashes into an Avis Rent a Car.
11) I gave him the cold shoulder.
Again, this would apply to her strictness towards both Bond and, to a larger extent, the valet.
12) It's a shame my career never hit off after this. Needless to say this wasn't exactly a defining role.
The actress, Nichola McAuliffe, has mainly stuck with voice roles and TV films following her brief run-in with the 007 franchise.
13) I swear, that usually never happens.
The smoke that Bond deploys from her tires.
14) He seemed to have ignored every piece of advice I put forth.
Any advice she offered was quickly refused by Bond, particularly during the car chase.
15) I guess we never determined whether or not I was a fan of animals.
In yet another deleted scene, Q opens the doors only to reveal a cage-bound Jaguar, to which Q replies: "Wrong assignment." In the final cut, the animal is still seen walking about the cage in the distance.
16) Someone's smokin'.
Again, the tire smoke.
As a bonus, I thought I'd throw in a few unused clues that would have lead to the round being much quicker than it was:
18) I get dragged around, quite vigorously, through a confined space.
The parking garage chase. I can't imagine she'd be too thrilled about the whole thing.
19) My placement in this film may very well be considered outlandish. My appearance, however, is certainly a product of its time.
On-board voice navigation was very much an experimental technology in 1997. However, the car itself retains its boxy, 90's appearance.
20) I appear to be utilized much more frequently than my predecessor.
The Z3 from Goldeneye had less than 2 minutes of screen time. In comparison, the 750 is used quite a bit during the Hamburg section, which occupies a large portion of the film.
Great job, @pachazo. I had this character in mind for a while, and the only thing that lead me to be skeptical in my selection of it was the fact that somebody (it may very well have been you) had guessed it a few rounds ago.
This was a great first round, and one that I feared had run its course on my side due to the difficulty of coming up with dozens of clues for such a minor character.
You certainly know your Bond, and I look forward to seeing what you come up with for your next round. The floor is yours.
I think I know who I'm going to select for the next round. I'll try to get it up as ASAP.
I realized I left out clue #17 from the explanations.
17) I appreciate how attentive Bond is to my kind.
"Don't you pay more attention to a female voice?"
Take it away.
Yes, I'm afraid you missed the boat (or the car) with that being your username!
EON Character
1) Good morning.
2) It's about to get personal.
3) I'm a little different now compared to the first time you saw me.
Right off the bat, I'm letting you know that there is a trick to solving this one.
EON Character
1) Good morning.
2) It's about to get personal.
3) I look different now compared to the first time you saw me.
4) That came from Russia?
5) I don't have an "inkling" as to how that just happened!
