Yeah I agree that thing is brutally awesome. Bentley Brooklands 6 3/4 Litre FTW. It has freaking 774 ft*lbs of torque and will do 184mph, because it is awesome and not limited or some such bullcrap. All this while bathing you in the sweet buttery deliciousness of 400+ bovine skins, flayed to perfection by an army of slave children and softened by their hot, salty tears. Mercedes can't even come close.

Not to mention Bentley's coachworks division, Mulliner, is more than happy to cater to your needs should you prefer white rhinoceros hide and bald eagle instead of cow for your interior furnishings.

VW-owned Bentley doesn't stir my soul in a meaningful way. At least Rolls is owned by some Germans who know how to build a proper Big Luxury Sedan.

Thats what I was thinking when I was looking at the pictures of the white one. The toolbag sitting in the back does look pretty comfy though.

BTW, you guys are all pronouncing it wrong, its mayBACK

I'd rather drive myself in a Cavalier than be chauffeured in a Maybach. The whole point of a road trip is the driving. I can sit in a lay-z-boy at home. I don't need a multi-hundred-thousand dollar car and a chauffeur to enjoy a comfy seat.

And a driver, right?

They're nice cars and sounds great ... very rarely do you see a true luxo-boat with an engine you can (and what to) hear.
