    In a way, i agree with you.

    I feel the smart thing for VW to do is give Bentley a more sporting side in the spirit of the cars before the RR takeover. Closer to Aston Martin than RR.

    In the last years, the Continental gave Bentley the first hint of brand identity but this new one has too many Phantom touches.

    On the Mulsanne, i do like the headlights more than the plucked eye brows of the continental GT and Flying Spur.

    it's a beautiful car...but there just isn't anything unique about it for US car people. It will sell like hot cakes for the rich folk. It's just like the new Jaguars, they resemble the Aston's too much. Every one is copying everyone else who is selling cars.

    Looks like they took the Phantom's jagged edges and smoothed them out for better gas mileage. But, there are only so many designs you can go through for massive sized luxury cars. Big and blocky like the Phantom? Smooth and space ship like like the Benz? Or a mix of the 2?
