Uncool, because it takes away my idea of fast Bentleys, I like the Arnage T/R I don't see this car as a real Bentley, yet it is I know.

Like JC said it misses the X factor, thats exactly what I have with this car.

You guys have never seen one ?? I've seen at least 4 here in Warsaw, where exotics are as rare as water on the desert. Unccol from me, it's a semi successful reincarnation of an old look, it's plain boring though, just a comfy 2+2 with no sporting credentials.

It's cool. It'll get you the chicks but won't set the world alight.

If you've never seen one, they're parked in front of every nice restaurant in Vegas, and they don't look as good as the Ferrari next to them.

I said cool because it would still get you laid.

I think it looks very good, and it's a damn good GT.

uncool, because, to me, a bentley coupe should be long, flowing, graceful, and truly beautiful. this is none of those things. i mean, its fast, but at what cost? in my opinion, a proper bentleyy is one with a long bonnet, a big v8 with oodles of torque, and the ability to stop everyone in their tracks when you drive by. this has none of these features. not a proper bentley, then.
