Bentley’s Continental GT has taken the world by storm as THE personal luxury coupe to own. It will fit four adults in the spacious cabin and actually has space to stow their luggage. But, practicality isn’t the reason to slide behind the wheel of a GT. It’s pure, unadulterated, unflinching hedonism served at warp speed. The hand stitched leather, optional burr oak veneers, stainless knobs and trim pieces, Blootooth connectivity, Breitling-produced console timepiece, GPS navigation, heated seating, etc. are all hurled down the tarmac behind a 552hp W12 that will send this car right up to the double ton with a stated top speed from Bentley of 198mph. 60mph comes from a standstill in a heart-stopping 4.7 seconds. Exhilarating stuff, indeed. This car is finished in rare Green Spruce metallic paint that is quintessentially British and ultra modern all at the same time. Drive this example of the most exclusive luxury coupe on the planet

Yes it's a nice car notehead but it's not " pure, unadulterated, unflinching hedonism served at warp speed. " |

330 MPH, 14 gallons of CH3-No2 (nitro methane) in 4.46 seconds. It will only set you back around $240,000 (a bargin) and this car just won @ Englishtown about 3 hours ago, and I was watching!

Mercedes-Benz AMG CLK-GTR Limited Edition Roadster\
I hear that MB are being sued as they said they were making only 5 and produced 6 and also this car (dealer in LA?) can't go further than about 10 blocks without having a problem so they are being sued for 1.7 mill, so I figure if I make a low ball offer (a few bucks) I might just take it off their hands and hire a local mechanic! |

The Aston Martin Vanquish S is a very cool car (and I'm not really a 'car guy').
But I don't think there's room for the car seats...or my reality |
