Hey guys, check this out:

Hate to see MB showed up, huh? I have always liked Bentleys, especially the Arnage T. Don't get me wrong, luv Mercedes, just like the B too. This Brooklands should be the bomb. Check that torque: 774 lb ft! Insane! If I'm not mistaken, 2nd "torquiest" (spelling?) in the world, coincidentaly enough, the other big B, also owned by Vdub: the Veyron! Too bad they're only making 550. Not like I could afford one!

Nobody cares? Thats fine. Just thought I'd share. I guess I thought that maybe those who also like Bentley might be interested. I really think, though, that a productio Excelero would make a nice competitor to this car. Would probably be better than it too. In fact, Rolls is coming out with a Phantom coupe, so these three could battle it out. Just like the sedans.
