Strange to see a Bentley that sounds like a Nissan 350z. However, you don't buy a hybrid flying spur to rev it out.

You don't buy a hybrid Flying Spur at all. Go W12 or go home.

Honestly though... Bentley has been diluting themselves with these lease-friendly hybrid V6s. The should've followed a path similar towards electrification as RR.

That being said - seems the Flying Spur is kind of looking tired to me.. not sure why. It used to wow me at launch, but not so much anymore despite it being an extraordinarily crafted car. It's not a half-ass effort like the last generation, but I guess times have changed quite a bit.

In my eyes this is still the best looking luxury saloon with the finest interior included.

The hybrid V6 delivers stunning performance with a great exhaust note and at least is an environmental solution for those not interested in the W12

Despite being a beautiful car, it is not standing the test of time as well as a car whose lifeline is even higher than normal should, it is looking a bit dated, especially certain resources used in its character lines.

I started feeling that way last year. None of Bentley's lineup impresses me visually anymore.

The sleekness and proportions of the car are not easy to capture in photos. Personally I still find the car attractive but feel that it looks most fresh when dechromed but not necessarily with black alloys.

Saw a current gen Conti V8 and am still impressed. Still like the FS. I'd want it with the V8 since it's like a modern interpretation of the Arnage.

The end is near for the W12 engine, but not before appearing in Bentley's saloon one last time

The rear shade rollo does not look well executed at all.

I don't remember well but recently the latest Bentley figures were presented and I think that the constant with the Flying Spur is that it is a success, that does not surprise me because of its exterior and interior design.
