I wouldn't be shocked if that wasn't actually their car. If you look at the sign in the background they are in the parking lot of a RR Dealership/mechanic's shop. I'll bet you $10 that car is either a dealer car or a customer car, hence "not being afraid to drive it." :/

LOL, yea, I noticed that after I posted....but either way, damn! I'd still be afraid to drive a $100K+ car like that, even if it wasnt mine.....just think if they crashed it, they would be paying for that for a really long time.

Try at the very least double that price. And it's a Bentley. Neat pic though.. Me, I would see the dollar signs whizzing by as those Avons are dead costly. He's probably getting a solid 4mpg right there too. Haha..

The purpose of this pic is that they're driving a Bentley and dissing the Rolls Royce place... the car they're driving isnt a RR.

Touche... I overlooked the mesh grille. I don't know that the point is vary clear, though, sonsidering that in most instances the RR dealer and the Bently dealer are one in the same. ****, I never knew there was much of a rivalry (up untill the split at least, which happended post Arnage.) Bently is supposed to be the sporty sister of the decidedly more luxury based RR. It would be like someone doing donuts in a Corvette while flipping off the local Caddy dealer.

A continental GT owner flipping off a RR Phantom II owner MIGHT make more sence since the former is made by VW, and the latter by BMW, but flipping off a dealer that sells a car that was designed in the same studio, is powered by the same motor, and is manufactured in the same production plant as your car really doesn't make any sence to me.

You have a good point and I would agree with you, but then again what about the Ford owners dissing Mercury, Audi owners a lot of the time dont like VW's, etc.

Its all a matter of representing your own stuff I guess. I don't really think they thought much about it...

Maybe I think too much about it. The examples you give have always pissed me off too. I don't get dissing cars that share your platform (especially Acura, which only exists ina few countries dissing honda owners). Damn my type A personality, but what are you gonna do.

Maybe the guy is flipping off his employer after quitting the joint, and driving the shxx out off his boss's car....

Hey that's no excuse, you still can!

pump those RE 92's up to about 70- 100 psi each, put about 3/4 lock into the steering, drop it into first gear, open her up and HOLD ON!
