The Bentley CGT is super hot. An awesome grand tourer. Two of my partners have them, and they absolutely love them.
I'm also tempted - but it's serious $$$...

i guess you don't know the story of how i got the 5 series.
it was never planned. It was sort of accidental and impulsive purchase. :-)

I really like the interior and the distinct smell! Car drives super smooth and has tremendous troque!

Here is some eye candy for you (btw this guy is a local) :

I think everyone has said it, great looking interior/exterior design. But the car is heavy as all hell and that car has a 6L engine putting out 550 hp. Its definitely NOT fuel effecient and 10 city/17 highway. If you're really pushing it, I wouldn't be surprised about those real world numbers. Imagine if it had the 6 and three quarter liter engine like the Bentley Brooklands???
