I see those things all over the place around here. Then again, there are 2 SLR Mclarens, a Carrera GT, a few lambos and ferraris around here as well. I'm not to impressed with the Bentley though.

No doubt huh! They are sweet cars, but not my cup of tea. A couple of saturday's ago I was playing golf at Dublin Ranch and there was a dude in dark blue Ferrari just hauling azz up and down the streets. I didn't realize how loud those things are, but damn they sound like an F1 car. Pretty sweet.

i believe you mean a vw/bentley. since vw owns the company. sweet looking but not for me after working for vw for 42 years and getting screwed out of my retirement right after they purchased bently due to cost cutting.

Ferraris are defanitely mean sounding cars. I've seen this one murcielago around here with exhaust that sounds so nice. I'll have to find this video of a Carrera GT with straight pipes cruising through L.A. scaring the crap out of people eating lunch and stuff.
