No one answered my question...
What makes this car worth $1.3 MILLION dollars? What's so special about it? Who in their right mind would buy this over a Bugatti Veyron? It's a luxurious super car that will get you more attention then any other car in the world. This Bentley is $1.3 million dollars, yet there are many other super luxury cars that can be had for $500k that almost rival that particular Bentley. I want to know what makes this car $800K more then some of the most luxurious cars on the market?
I guess I just never understood luxury cars. Once you get to a particular point of luxury, you can't really get anymore luxurious.. Sort of like when you have a 500hp Toyota Supra, upgrading it to 900hp makes very little difference, I know you Supra fans will know what I'm talking about.
How comfortable can a seat get? How much more exotic can the materials get? How much more quiet can an already SUPER quiet car get? You know what I mean?
The only thing I can think of is that people buy this car as a status symbol, so they can flaunt their 1.3 million everywhere they go. Which is the lamest thing ever btw.
Does anyone have the specs on this thing?

I want to know what would even make this thing 500,000.
bugatti thought different story.
hand made engine, hand made interior. 1000hp awd.
i understand that, but i dont understand how that bentley comes out to around the same price.
i dont know the specs but:
i assume it couldnt out-run a bugatti, by the looks i dont think it could out-handle a bugatti, more than likely it isnt awd. (it might be, but pry not)
why $1.3M except for the name.

I just looked it up on google, and for a car that's as expensive as it is, it sure did get some really low ratings!
# Enthusiast Rating: 6/10
# Consumer Appeal: 3/10
You can't get one for $1.3 million, they typically go for $1.7 million USD, the $1.3 is for Euros, which makes it a direct competitor to the Veyron.
It has a twin turbo W12 engine that produces a mere 600hp! They couldn't squeeze anymore HP out of that HUUUGE engine with two turbos? I bet the car weighs above 5,000lbs... This car is pathetic, utterly pathetic!
I guess there are only 9 of them in the world which are made specifically for collectors, so I guess I can see why these POS cars are marked up to $1.7 MILLION dollars!
I mean seriously, who in their right minds would buy this Bentley over a Bugatti Veyron? They are the same price, and the Bugatti not only has an insane amount of HP that is sent to all four wheels, not to mention more performance bits then any other car on the planet, but its also luxurious, perhaps not up to par with the Bentley in terms of luxury, but even still, the Veyron kicks the crap out of that Bentley in every category (minus luxury) by ten fold, EASILY. It's like comparing some gnarly looking woman from Uzbekistan to some BEAUTIFUL woman from Spain who has a twin sister that looks exactly like her sister, and both are totally hot for you.
If you hadn't noticed, I don't think the Bentley is all that great.

Because it screams: "I've got an extra $1.7 million laying around to spend on this car, and you don't."
