it is an awesome car. although if i had the choice between it and a phantom....damn that would be tough....

i don't know...i can't say i care much for the front end.

it looks a little like one of those oriental rip off's of a Bentley and not actually like a Bentley. almost garish i would say, like this rip off of a Rolls Royce by Chinese car maker Geely.

I'd rather take a Facel Vega Excellence if I were in the market for a luxury saloon, which I'm not ;)

Define "Off Topic" as it applies here. :)

I dunno, it takes a while for the new lines to grow on me. When Rolls updated their look a few years ago I happened upon one parked in front of a trendy Boston bistro and loudly agreed with the LA Times automotive editor:

"Not since torch-wielding peasants pursued Frankenstein's creation across the countryside has a noble soul been so tortured!"

The owner of the Bistro stared daggers at me and I told him to go out and get himself a Packard and all would be forgiven.

My head's stuck in the past as far as high-end rides are concerned. I spent last month resisting the urge to grab a '35 Packard sedan for the unheard of price of $7500. Granted, it was the proverbial 'barn find' and looked like it had seen more chickens than millionaires in its time, but still...

<Thinking> I haven't driven a Bentley...Yet.
