PHOTOS: "New" 2007 Bentley Flying Spur (Unique Luxury Sedan Continued...)

MontegoGoGoGo · 05-23-2009, 05:28 PM

EDIT: Sorry mods, wrong section...please move. Thanks!

Thanks for all of the advice, he decided to go with the Flying Spur. It's really a funny story how he ended up with it. He was test driving a used VW Beetle, I'm totally serious, and he took it home to show my mom and she hated it. (He changed his mind a MILLION times on what he wanted.)

Just about 5,000 miles on it, pretty good for an '07!

So he took it back to the dealer and told the sales guy my mom didn't like it. He said, "my wife and daughter want me to get a Bentley" And the sales guy is like, "Oh, I have one back in the garage." It was the owner of the dealership's car, but I guess anything is for sale at a car dealership. Anyway, my dad test drove the Continental GT and didn't like it, felt too cramped, but fell in love with this one when he saw it.

I'm happy for him, now we all have cars we love. (I'm not too hot on the color, but shhhhhhhhh!) Enjoy the photos. You'd never believe how much just the floor mats are!

Thanks again for all the help and ideas for a unique luxury sedan.

Wow! Nice.

MontegoGoGoGo · 05-23-2009, 05:33 PM

A few more shots.

Not even sure what the real name of the color is or the interior combo. I think where the wood is supposed to be is called "piano black."

There's also a little mini computer screen in the armrest, don't know what that is for either.

I love the exhaust too.

It's a V-12, but don't know the horsepower.

Enjoy the photos! Peace!

I know, he really was all over the map. Literally! Style-wise, price-wise, etc.

It just goes to show to anyone in sales, you never know what to expect and what will happen. I'm sure the sales guy never expected that!

Wow, that's a pretty awesome outcome. Very nice car!

Yeah, my friend took the photos, they're not that good. The ones I do have of the front, he is in, sitting in the driver's seat. I don't know how he'd feel about me posting his face all over the internet!

Here are three more.

This is really cute.....they are going to sit in the backseat tonight and have shrimp and champagne. My dad grew up in a one-bedroom apartment in Manhattan and his father was a shoe salesman. Needless to say, both of my parents work hard and appreciate everything they have acquired. I appreciate it all too, just wish it was mine,

!!!!

Wow! Very nice!

jayely1 · 05-23-2009, 06:48 PM

Does it have the Diamond stitched seats? Or what model has that, it looks amazing!

freshwhite335 · 05-23-2009, 06:49 PM

the "computer screen" in the console has something to do with the bluetooth i think

No, it doesn't. But that is cool looking. I think it's only on the Continental Supersport.....not sure!

jpsum · 05-23-2009, 07:37 PM

Damn, that's a lot of buttons on the steering wheel. They can eliminate the main console of buttons all together. LOL.

Sweet car. So how much are the floor mats?

0asis · 05-23-2009, 09:09 PM

gorgeous car.. and technically your dad did get a VW as Bentley is owned by VW and share some interior components. Of course, VW also takes credit for creating the "little-known" car - the Bugatti Veyron.

great exterior and classy interior combo.
