For the price of like, a well optioned camry or taurus or something, !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!!
Obviously the maintenance costs would be outrageous so I could never realistically afford this, but if I was to buy any Bentley ever, I think it'd be an Arnage T. Keep your W12's and haldex AWD on your fancy new VW's, I'll take this archaic leviathan.
If I really had the money to go after one of these, !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! 2009 was the last year they made these cars, and they came with a 6.8L twin turbo V8 that moved this 2 1/2 ton car from 0-60 in 5.2 seconds. It made 493hp and 738tq! If that wasn't enough, this car has a top speed of 180mph.

For a total of 780HP.

I do like those, but I'm not sure a jjjaaaaaaaaagggg is on the level of a Bentley, its more on par with a BMW

No sir.
But unfortunately, the cheapest one on auto trader is still 145k.

It's pretty easy to finance anything 2004 or newer.

Oh yes, it was called the Brooklands.
Both of these are my favorite Bentleys, more than the ones that are now, but the Arnage holds a more special place in my heart than the Brooklands does.

The steering wheel looks like something out of a 90s-2000s ford interior

Or something that no one even knew even existed... A Bentley Turbo R Opera Coupe.
And then you could also acquire a lowly luxury sedan, possibly a Jaaaaaaaaaagggg, for when you don't want to upset the peasants while picking up Grey Poupon

You totally could, just need to budget about $10k a year for maintenance costs.

They are surpirisngly reliable, my friend has that thing, and the coupe version of it.
But his arnage was the RL tough. And it's not 6.8, it's Six-and-three quarter liter V8.

Some credit unions will finance older cars of just about any age. Provided the car is valued at what you pay for it.

Yes, despite being an awesome luxury car, that kills it for me.

Yeah I noticed the same thing. I had one in my old Wrangler. If I remember correctly, I think I got the head unit for free.
But I've actually a driven a Turbo R sedan. They're great to drive and surprisingly fast. Like, I accidentally chirped the tires at a bunch of stoplights without giving it a whole lot of gas and after that it just takes off. Great for removing yourself from mobs of angry serfs.
