some of you may remember when i posted the pictures of the bosses new v12 vanquish...

then a few months later i posted pics of his new 911 turboS cabrio


but here is the newest addition to his collection. i just took these out at the hanger were he keeps his jets.


my key to my gti wiht the sweeeet bentley key


the twin turbo V12





i sat in it and played with the gps a little. very very comfortable. the drivers seat is about 3 feet wide. its hard to really tell but the car is very big. its a beefy sucker but wow its really amazing to play with. the smell of the interior is just amazing.

 

Wow. Bently is ugly but it is (exuse my choice of words) pimp

 

I think the GT has such incredible styling... and it looks horrible on the Flying Spur.

 

The 911 is better, and the Aston is junk. ford owned and ruined. The Bentley Conti GT is nice, but the Flying Spur looks to much like a Lincoln.

 

i thought that at first too. when i saw the back end i actually thought it was a chrystler 300 or someting but then i heard him start it up and i was like.... wtf

 

Yea, the Cayanne is a POS because it's half VW. Your ripping on Aston for being owned by Ford when you drive a VW / Audi born 944? Hello pot, I'm a kettle....... I guess every Ferrari is a pile of garbage since they are owned by Fiat.

 

So is the boss handing out bonuses?

 

Audi did wonders for Lamorghini. I hear they are actually drivable since they developed the Murcialago and Gallardo....

 

First, VW isn't ford. Second although the national media has been kind to Aston, in general they lament the "ford-ization" of the brands they bought up. i.e. Jaguar, Volvo, etc... Third I just like to rip ford so there was a little tongue in cheek in there.

 

is your boss married?

 

Hate to break it to ya, but VW is pretty much Europe's GM. Even the name means "people's car."

Gotta love the self-loathing of our country for its automakers.

 

There are almost no Ford components shared on the Aston Martin DB9...with the exception of the engine, which bears a very distant relationship to a Ford engine. All components are completely high quality and high tech, as befits an Aston.

Ford has worked wonders for Jaguar, Volvo, Land Rover, and Aston Martin. Without Ford, I hate to think where they would be now.

 

What was Volvo doing wrong before Ford bought them? I'm lookin into an old Volvo as a beater..

 

Nothing-they just werent making that much money as a company. Thus, without sufficient funds, they couldnt produce the wide range of products that they are producing now.

Very much the same with Aston Martin, Land Rover, and Jaguar. Although Jaguar is not exactly an example of shining success like Ford's other PAG brands, but they are getting better.

 

I saw one in person the other day by Madison Square Garden. It was an extremely good looking car, and it looks much better in person than in photos.
