I think that this is the most beautiful and the best car ever to come out Crewe, and perhaps England overall! If I had the cash, I would not mind getting me one of these W12-twin turboed monsters!

Typical Brit, stuffy inside, bland outside. Id have to say very few beautiful things come from England, one of the few. . . Cathryn Zeta Jones.

Exactly! Now; let me tell you my plan. I am going to do everything in my power to persuade my wife's boss into buying one. He just bought that CL600 V12 Twin Turbo MB in April (500HP/593lbs. torgue). Yeah! It's incredible! He's 35, self-made, and likes unique things.

I just so happen to be friends with a guy here in the Memphis area that has a good friend that owns Bentley - St. Louis (the dealer). Let's see what happens.

wow......that interior looks like a 1970's bachelor pad.....I'll never understand why automakers think wood looks good in a car....ugh!

And what's with the "Lincoln" grill? Give me a 7series with the 12 cylinder engine

mmmm Bentleys, it's hard to really appreciate their cars unless you see them in person, absolutely gorgeous. Also one thing that I always get a kick out of is their curb weight. A 5200lb coupe!

WTF is wrong with it? It has good lines and a traditional rich ass bastard interior. This isn't for people wanting the ultimate in performance, it is for the rich guy wanting a performance version of his Rolls (and 0-60 in 4.7 ain't bad).

You betcha! I guess people simply do not understand anything about the marque. Ha! That's an understatement! (peep)
