I heared that most of the car is hand built rather than being made on a assembly line, dunno if thats true though[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG]

each bentley or rolls is unique, they are all hand built and can be custom made in basically any way you want as far as materials and colors, audio/video etc..... thats why they cost a boatload. and whens the last time you heard of a bentley that was a lemon???????

It may have a lot of horsepower and torque but the car is about 6500 lbs.

Those cars are really for those who do know what to do with their money and just have to spend it so that they'd be contented. It's more of a status symbol type of a car. Can the engine of those cars be set up for performance?

The thing about Bentley's is while they can give other cars a run for their money, they are not made for performance. When someone wants to go all out with a car, they can go buy a Bentley or Rolls. It's that status, it gives you something other people don't have. Personally I would never buy a new one. Perhaps when I finally get out of a college and make some more money, I'll go find a nice used one.

I think you meant do NOT know what to do with their money. Isn't spending money on mods the same thing??? You want your car to be a status symbol?? Better than the rest, faster than the rest, get more looks??? i mean you aren't spending 350K but still, couldn't u use the money for mods on something else. Just playin devils advocate. Let them spend their money. It helps the economy for them to drop 350k on a ride. And if you guy want to know the specs, it hs 420hp@4000, 650lbs torque@2100. Low ratios, but lots of power.
