Bentley Continental Flying Spur.

Jostyrostelli · January 19th, 2005, 5:43 PM

Bentley is coming with this "new" car, it's really a 4-door version of the Continental GT. It will have the same engine, a 6.0L 12cyl. with 2 turbos coughing up 552bhp. Top speed of 305km/h and 0-100km/h is 5 seconds.

I prefer the old Arnage, but this one looks very good

Dark_Templer_102 · January 19th, 2005, 8:06 PM

weird name

My dad will love them when he sees it...i still think its too expensive for him but i'm not argueing...

v1ct0r · January 19th, 2005, 10:05 PM

that looks a lot better than the coupe, and now it has 4 real seats. It just seems more bentleyish

andyhui01 · January 19th, 2005, 11:03 PM

is this the replacement for the Arnage?... I'll take this over the phantom anyday... this one looks better... the Phantom looks like its for people in their 70's

Renesis · January 19th, 2005, 11:25 PM

I love it, much better than the GT

justin syder · January 20th, 2005, 4:20 AM

This car sreams sex! FUCKING WONDERFUL!!

I loved the classy look of the arnage but this is a good step forward to replace it.

haha604 · January 20th, 2005, 5:53 AM

Its side profile looks too German.

haz · January 20th, 2005, 11:54 AM

barf ... looks like that latest Jag, with the ugly front-grill that only looks semi-ok dead on straight (remember JC? images/smilies/lol.gif

)

Renesis · January 20th, 2005, 11:13 PM

could use some chrome though

Greatgraddage · January 21st, 2005, 12:26 AM

I prefer the phantom. Has more soul!

SuperGeijiMayuu · January 21st, 2005, 12:34 AM

ok. it may not scream sex as someone mentioned above images/smilies/wink.gif

, but i say it looks pretty nice. i would definitely choose this over the phantom (even if it may have soul images/smilies/rolleyes.gif

)

Renesis · January 21st, 2005, 12:35 AM

The Phantom is very ugly, it's a fucking box and it's way too high, and I don't think it's got any character

Greatgraddage · January 21st, 2005, 1:20 AM

I think it's stunning. You buy a car like that to stand out a mile, and you certinally do in that.

Daniel · January 21st, 2005, 3:49 PM

I love the roller aswell. It looks stunning.

The Continental looks shait as a sedan. images/smilies/yucky.gif

jasonchiu · January 22nd, 2005, 2:20 AM

that car is hot!

Overheat · January 22nd, 2005, 7:40 PM

Gimme a Roller to be driven around it but give me a Bentley to own images/smilies/smile.gif

Phix · January 22nd, 2005, 9:03 PM

I just wish the taillights weren't just a solid red block. Or the third-brake lamp isn't as ugly as in the Continental GT.

SPG900 · January 22nd, 2005, 9:10 PM

How can you even compare this with a Phantom? It's going to cost a little more than a Merc S600. And if you think Flying Spur is a weird name for a Bentley, you should read a bit about their history.

Anyway, Bentley's going too cheap. One entry model was fine, two is a crowd. I hope I won't see too many of these.

asthenia · January 25th, 2005, 4:44 AM

You'll see lots. I saw three Continental GT's parked on the same block. They're everywhere.

I like this thing though. I dunno, it still feels good to say "look, a Bentley."
