    I am not that impressed.
    Its a sport coupe that weighs in over 5000lb... thats just a porky pig if you ask me. Yea it's plush, but the articles I read on it didn't seem too impressed with that volkswagen they call the Bently GT...

      Most of what I have heard or read is that Bentley's are all show, and that they ride and drive like shit.

                There was an article about it in AutoWeek a few weeks ago. One of the editors commented that nobody except a 13 year old boy paid any attention to the car because they didn't know what it was. I think his comment was, "I wanted to yell out the window, 'Look at me, I'm in a Bentley!' "

                It does look like a silver blob.

                  I like this better:



                  Seen two of these up around me, unbelievable looking on the road. I'm really starting to like the design, it has a very bauhaus-expressionististic look to it with the overexaggerated angles.

                        For what it is, its a VERY good car.

                        This is a luxury coupe with tons of power. Its not a sports car. Think of Bently's version of a MB CL600.

                        Looks is all subjective. I think its a good design overall. There are some small bits here/there that could use some work but I think it looks great for a modern bently.

                        If I had the cash, I would consider it. Twin Turbo W12... :twisted:

                          That's probably the only Bentley I don't like. Bentley and Rolls are all Bling not performance.

                            :roll: more like for executives and rappers that dont care if it's fast or not, and only care that it is a bentley.
