The Nitro Doorslammer is an Hot Wheels Original Model introduced in 2007. This model is based upon the 2007 Aston Martin DB-One Concept model. They feature the same tapered rear end and curved front, though Hot Wheels iced the cake with a twin-turbocharged engine sticking out from the hood.
The Nitro Doorslammer is also playable in the Hot Wheels: Track Attack videogame. It is also an unlockable model in Hot Wheels: Beat That!.
From 2008 to 2012, regular castings featured a plastic base with a flip-out, anti-wheelie bar that locks open or closed with a small plastic tab. In 2013, the casting changed so that the anti-wheelie bar is shorter, molded into the base and does not move. However, all Color Changer versions from 2008 to present have a metal base and no wheelie bar.
