The Luxury of Rolls and Bentley

The driving experience is superior to the Benz (we're not talking about racing these cars, gang$starr), the interior is infinitely superior, you only have to sit in it once and be wafted away to realise how amazing it is (RR or B)... those huge seats, the wood, those thick, thick carpets... unparalleled luxury, let me assure you

damn this thread is old.... it popped up in my e-mail lol

I know that Rolls and Bentley are the epitome of luxury, I've driven a newer Bentley Arnage and sat in a Silver Seraph and Continental at a dealership in Toronto

They have monster engines

All i was saying before is that the S600 has just as many luxury features if not more...... it's almost as luxurious, just not as exclusive as Rolls and Bentley who go out of their way to make things perfect

you think the LExus LS430 is the best for the money?! not even close

The infiniti Q45 costs like 5-10k less, not sure how much exactly... and it has like 50 more HP and even more luxury features IMO

I would still rather have the S600

if i would choose i'd definetly go Rolls or Bentley, i'm just sayin that the S600 is almost as luxurious, just not as exclusive

Lets just say that you know nothing about Lexus LS series. First of all your beloved Infinity with it's extra 50hp is slower then LS430. How pathetic is that...Nissan ingeneering. Secondly you do not get the options in your Infinity that you can get with LS430 (yes you can have a fridge in LS). Third is that Lexus takes up the #1 spot on J.D. Powers reports for the last 7 years due to LS series (Infinity is getting better and BMW is not even close). If not S600 I would go for LS430 since it is as comfortable and luxurious or even more so.

Get your facts straight and then distort them as you wish.

man this is old, stop bringin old stuff back up.

The infiniti is not slower, it is even with the Lex because of the different powerband. It still has more power.

The question is what car is a better value, and the Infiniti has alot more options for up to 10k less.

If I were to choose I would get the Lexus over the Infiniti, but the question was which is better for the money.
So remember to read all the posts next time

and it's spelt "engineering" little boy

What would an AF thread be without my opinion???:finger: j/k

I personally would perfer a new Bimmer 745Li, those things are the SHIT!!!!!!

They have things like TV's (Which Rolls and Bentleys lack), the infamous iDrive (Good old German engineering for you), Sat Nav (Option in Rolls)
and having sat in a normal 745i (The highlight of my life) I can confirm that the seats are butt-heaven........

Not that I have gotten anywhere near a Rolls and and have only had a browse at an Arnage Red Label, but those cars wiegh over two tonnes, I will check the figures for the 7 later, but it is sure to be less.

Plus they don't call it the ultimate driving machine for nothing :finger:

But hell the next Rolls is going to be a Bimmer, says a lot doesn't it.....

Roll's are slippin a little in terms of performance and build quality.

You can have a Bentley built to youre exact specification. You can have them make it out of anything you want, and to have whatever features you want. There was one built 4 a guy at a motor show that was converted to 2 seats with a big space in the back, the entire interior was carbon fibre and suede. It was fuckin horrible, but you cant get much more hand built than that.

[crayzayjay]

I dunno.... im pretty sure u can get a rolls exactly like you want it too

[Pennzoil GT-R]

you can get rolls' pretty much custom built, but they are beginnin to lack a little refinement compared to bentleys

If i was shopping for a luxury car, I'd get an Escalade EXT. "Luxury" is opinion, and in my opinion hand-laid wood, hand-stitched leather sound cool on paper, but in real life the Bentley is just too gaudy. I see them all the time here in Newport Beach.:o

i have no idea where you got that idea from but that statement is far from accurate

that statement comes from living about 5 - 10 miles away from the Rolls Royce factory in Crewe, England. I see these things all the time, and yes, in terms of quality and refinement, Rolls Royce have been left behind a little bit by Bentley

I dont think it matters where you live....
Theres a Toyota factory somewhere in my city, i dont know more than the average person knows about Toyota

yeh, but that may be because you dont take an interest in Toyota. i have a toyota factory in derby (about 20/30 miles away), and i too dont know more than most about toyota. but Rolls is different, i take an interest in them as they are built so close to home and are one of the best British ambassadors we have.

[crayzayjay]

personally i would have a bentley over a rolls but they are not more refined or more of a quality item as far as im concerned. rolls suffer from a bad image and too much chrome.. thats about it!!

[Ando_Rules]

there are a lot of luxury car makers but no of them r up to bently/rolls royce standerds
