    there is a jeweler, i believe, on Rodeo who loves Bentley's and Roll's. he usually likes them in yellow and always parks it in front of the store, probably serves as advertisement in itself. anyhow, must be good customer to get one those!

    Not bad, but the metal hood and the yellow don't blend as well IMO as the blues and dark colors the show cars had. I've seen two black ones around and those looked sharp. It is a mammoth block of a car though.

    And believe it or not, it is a factory color for that car -- Semaphore Yellow.

    This thread reminded me -- anyone ever seen this old movie before? http://imdb.com/title/tt0059927/
    I actually thought it was pretty good. I love Rex Harrison.

    I don't like it in yellow, but I think it's very cool.

    As a promotional vehicle, I get it. Hell, I even took a picture.

    But I certainly couldn't pull the trigger on that if I was actually driving it around; it's highlighting all of the bad aspects of the design, not unlike an overweight woman in spandex. Dark blue looks great however.

    Yes.
    He always tries to match the color of his store front,
    its a creamy yellow.

    I agree.
    The last time this car was discussed I was told to apologize for my stupidity in not drooling over it.
    Yellow doesn't help.
