Let's all face it, Bentleys have not been very good cars in the last 40 years. the GT has changed that and the higher ups there know how to bank on a good thing.

I personally find the GT to be a very attractive car, with it's only competetion being the CL. It was a perfectly well executed design created to move the marque forward.

I am not a car guy so I can't imagine being that interested in the design of these cars unless I was going to buy one. But I am wondering whether people comment on the designs of these brands because they are likely buyers or simply because they are into cars and follow cars the way sports fans follow teams (even though they don't play for them and have nothing riding on the outcome, i.e., because it is fun).

Whether your getting excited about purchasing one, comparing what you already have, being really into innovation or just dreaming, it can be fun for all types. I understand it.
