    That is a really horrible car. Those thin chiseled beautifully stitched seats are wonderful and then you see the boat they are fitted too and it just looks ridiculous.

    Hmm, only 50% more than the base model! And 3x what a used one is going for...

    I would think this cars major competition would be the SL65 Black and the Aston DBS both of which are more expensive. Nice car but like the others in its class the depreciation will be brutal.

    Well, considering I despise everything about the Continental series and I like this car, a lot, I think that says something.

    The question is how many of you have seen and sat in it in the flesh? I have and it is really something special.

    I'd buy a used one for 70k throw 50k in mods in, and it will be at least as good as this new one.

    Losing the back seat defeats the purpose of that car,a perfect daily driver for those who are not bothered by the price but wanting the very best, every day,any weather transportation when living in an unfriendly climate like Chicago.
    Practical,roomy and comfortable,beautifully finished ,more then adequate performance and handling and AWD allowing to have that monstrous power always available regardless of weather.
    I was excited about that thing until finding out about the missing back seats.....

    Well there's still the CGT Speed at least. A nice middle ground and you keep the back seats.

    True.
    A nicely loaded one ,with CCBs (a must in that heavy car) that are 16.5" in diameter (largest in any production car) already is priced in high $230k,not really that far from the Supersport.
