No, the Arnage T/R/RL [the new Bentleys, Arnage Series II] doesn't, but all other Bentleys do.
Guess they found out a simple double wishbone setup does a better job getting the power to the ground.
The car still dives, rolls, understeers, spinns and slips. And I can't imagine a bigger, heavier and more powerfull car is any better.

IMO the scariest thing about the sixteen is some 90 year old granpa and granma that has no reflexes to speak of and with cataracts the size of long island. With 1000 hp at their disposal.

The roofline is kinda strange but still a very gorgeus car. It's nice to see Cadillac go back to their heritage of powerful luxury cars, and this is a badass-looking one.

I like the cues the car has to Cadillac's past. The integrated exhaust with the tail lights is a nice touch, and the entire design is a series of abstractions from the 30's all the way to the 60's and early 70's.

As for the luxuries and appointments, if this car is built, it will become the Eldorado Brougham of our time.

Kudos to Cadillac for its gradual re-invention.

The interior is beautiful. I love the wood-grain.

I love it too. Those seats have to be so comfortable just by how they look. The grain is sweet looking too.

Great Point... Yes he sounded very stupid saying that. All of his posts lately have made no sence at all and are just totally messed up. How about backing that statement up some Genisis3, we love hearing opinions from people like you.

Yes good point- there is no way that you can "back up" a cars ugliness- it is all just an opinion

It looks alright, but I want to know who will buy it for what they will want for it.
