Looks fantastic in different colour - now it's only need different colour for interior! But the pedals - I don't really think that you can use them with leather sole, especially on wet days.

Except the color. Door mats probably have more colorful character than people who opt for that color.

Still waiting for a Dark Sapphire, Midnight Emerald or Burnt Oak version…would love to see this version with complete Burnt Oak interior then. And still no Mulsanne for configuration…

I've always liked the S-class in Black. I have seen a few white S-classes in white that I do like, but they should be in AMG form. Of course a white Rolls-Royce and/or Bentley seems rather dreamy and Supreme.

The Gold on the Bentley looks very sophisticated, but if I were to purchase one I would prefer the blue (shown at frankfurt) or black.

SDNR has disabled reputation
Ever since I first saw this vehicle I have had a recurring thought about it -- it is quite subtle but the more I see it, the more I can't help thinking how cleverly Retro it is.

The 'additive' (heterogeneous) approach to the interior styling is particularly notable -- this is highly original and quite the opposite of what we see from Audi.

I think particularly of the famous 1960s British TV show 'Thunderbirds'.

The vehicle is not blatantly Retro ...but the overall feeling is highly stylized and deliberate.

BTW what is it with these uber fat luxury cars, everyone of them have ugly wheels. I see no elegance whatsoever.

And that's exactly what we wanted, but I had my fears and doubts. The Arnage series went out on a high thanks to the Impossibly gorgeous Brooklands which I perceived to be impossible to successed. It's like one of those girls you might brak up with and never imagine being able to fin anyone better. But VAG has delivered.

What we love about the Arnage and the Phantom is the raised and angular detailing seem in the photos before. They make the cars look exquisite and elegant, and they are unique design traits of Bentleys and Rollers. '




On the opposite end, newer cars like the CLS and X6 have flat and curvy surfaces which reflect light in ways we never thought were possible. But then there are other modern designs such as the Continental GT series which suffer from the notorious bar-of-soap-look syndrome -- that's were my wears were, that the Arnage succor would too look bloated.




To my price the Mulsanne takes a step backwards from the CGT while taking two stapes forward from the Aanage. And after you've seen one, the Phantom and Arnage suddenly look a bit antique -- and the CGT has as much finesse as a boiled egg. It's stiking how well defined the car is and how strong of an impression it makes, despite missing the impossing shirts and chrome details seen on it's predeccessor. My only objection is the overly elitist image of private viewings and limited promotional material on the website. The car is already on showroom floors but there are just a handful of press images on the website. Quite an uncool way of shutting out any Bentley africandos who might be potential customers in the future.

^I sure hope they bring the Mulsanne to DC Auto Show later this month. They always seem to bring the Flying Spur and CGT.

Did you get a chance to take some photos of the Mulsanne?

Just a little sample:







I gotta say I just love this car, but no car is perfect. The rear end is a little soft compared to the Arnage. Other than that I'd have one in Emerald Green or some type of dark, but not too dark Blue. It got a lot of "oh my god" reactions from the crowds too.

Merc1, digging the pictures, can't wait to see the rest.

In pewter, it looks like someone dumped a vat of mercury on the car. The paintjob is wonderous. I like the back-end the most, it gives it some dynamism, as if it was in motion, while the juxtaposed front end gives it an upright stature. As whole, it gives off a locomotive vibe, dynamic but big. I would get this car in this color or royal blue with the 5 spoke wheels.

This car made me lul at first, but I'm lul'ing no more. I think it's perfect. They really managed to bridge "modern classic" and "progressive luxury" into one package - no easy task.

The billionaire in me prefers this over the Phantom.
