Bentley has been absolutely killing it with their newer designs. The interior of the new Conti/Spur is maybe the nicest of any car I’ve ever been in, including Rolls. Definitely more sporty than any Rolls. Waiting for Conti GT prices to dip under 150, maybe another year or two…

Awesome. Need more Bentley DNA in the grille. Chrome surround or a nod to it.
VAG makes the best cars in the industry. |

Slobber Car boner That's right there with the DBS for best looking award. Put it in that super bright silver of theirs, jubilee?, and I'll take it. Edit: I think it's called moonbeam silver. Ok...chop-chop on my car. Edit 2: The video above never showed a straight on side profile...my favorite angle for critique. Looked at several pics and I rechamp the DBS. Something about the rear roof drop angle to amount of metal doesn't hit it for me. Still sweet.

Watched the video.
+ good body proportions + stunning interior, no surprise + no tacked-on screen + V12 - headlamps and wheels are too common - Bentley badge needs to be on the bonnet It's a Panamera with a 2-door Mulliner body. PDCC and RAS are from the VAG parts bin. |

I'm not sure I'm loving the grill. The rest of the car is quite nice though. I'm a fan of Bently, but $2M + USD is pretty steep.

Not a fan of this. The side profile and rear especially just don't look very Bentley to me, and the front has some weird styling choices as well. To me the second generation Continental GT is just gorgeous and timeless, easily my dream daily driver, this car despite its $2M price tag doesn't look better than the $300k Conti in my opinion.

I liked how in the first video the dude walks around the wall and is stunned to see the car for the first time (as he stated). Then goes on in detail about the design elements without any hesitation or pause to collect his thoughts on the design.
The Internet. Lol. |

Thanks for posting the video. It's just interesting why anyone makes an ostentatious video about a pretentiously priced car that only .0001% percent of people can afford and when only 18 were produced. Internet clicks I suppose...

I personally prefer better handling cars. These cars seem better suited to be chauffeured in.
