It's really about time that Bentley update the Arnage. The car is starting to show its age. The GT is such a great looking car, much nicer looking (at least to me) than the new Rolls Royce. I've seen a couple of them in real life, and it ain't pretty.

Are you serious? I seen CGT's everyday and they are ugly as sin, the Arnage are the only real superb looking Bentleys left. The days where Bentley were the choice for luxury are now over if they ruin the Arnage, Rolls Royce all the way with the Phantom.

In my opinion both Continental GT and Continental Flying Spur are VERY NICE cars, to say, at least.

Far as your luxury issue,

i think those days are over, times wehn you could get whole car hand made car and other stuff, BENTLEY and RR are best thing you can get.

For my taste...I would say that the Continental GT as well as the Flying Spur are great looking luxury vehicles...HOWEVER...for my taste...they do not compare to the classic looks of the of the Arnage R.


Cheers,

Javier,

you are wright, becouse they never meant to e Arnage substitude, they are ''cheap'' Bentleys, Arnage is hole other level of luxury, at least when it comes to price.

Bentley base prices in Germany:

Continental GT = 167504 EUR
Continental Flying Spur= 167504 EUR

Arnage R = 252905 EUR
Arnage T = 268570 EUR

See the diference?

Arnage is higher priced but you wouldn't want to drive it daily over the FS.
It drives and feels like a leather and wood clad F150 and performance,even in T ,is way below its lower priced cousin.
It looks dated,does not provide enough luxury ,performance and handling for the price,it really needs replacement asap.
