This only highlights what I don't like about these new Bentleys, they share the same front fender/headlight treatment as that VW Bug. That I cannot forgive. Who styled these new Bentleys anyway? In this case I think its an awful thing for Bentley.

The Bugattis and Audis are hot, and the Lambos are too in convertible form. I still think Piech should have let an Italian style the new Lambos while Audi concentrated on the under the skin stuff. He reportedly rejected the original design for the Murcielago and had a German style the car. It still came out outrageous but I think it would have been moreso if a honest to goodness Italian had done the styling.
