  | Re: Autozeitung test : Bentley Flying Spur Speed vs. Mercedes S65 AMG The Bentley is more impressive inside, but pray to gods of sight you don't have to ever look at it from the outside. There isn't another car so expensive that is so ugly from the front and and side profile. Hopefully when these "Bentleys" get redesigned they'll look a lot better. S65 AMG for me, no contest. M

| Re: Autozeitung test : Bentley Flying Spur Speed vs. Mercedes S65 AMG I`d be willing to bet the Benz is more reliable, safer with a bit more creature comforts! (the face/lift will just add to this!) It also might appeal to a younger crowd as it simply has way more sex-appeal! The Bently seems like it`s for a rich older guy, a father. His son, no doubt would choose the Merc S65 because it look way better, has more toys and the three pointed star to back the advanced new age. The S-Class is simply more advanced!

| Re: Autozeitung test : Bentley Flying Spur Speed vs. Mercedes S65 AMG Two of the least appealing cars in the industry today. If I wanted a dinosaur, I would go for a Rolls Royce, you will then at least come off as a bit distinguished...

| Re: Autozeitung test : Bentley Flying Spur Speed vs. Mercedes S65 AMG If I was to spend that kind of money on a car, I wouldn't one that had the same badge as the A140 CDI. But this is just me. If I was a Russian mobster, then I'd probably buy the S65 AMG, in the bullet-proof version, then make it look the same (bumpers, wheels, everything) as the S320 CDI.
