    My dad got a call from the salesman from bentley troy a few hours ago, and he said my dad's gtc is coming sometime next week, but its on the boat. The car was configured as silver/red but my dad changed it last minute. its now silver lake (bright silver with a touch of blue) on portifino main hide and saddle secondary hide. blue top, thin 5 spoke 19's (when the car arrives it will be fitted with 20" mulinner specification wheels), bluetooth convienece pack, wood wheel, olive ash wood, wood door panels, valet key, sheepskin mats, spare wheel, cross stiching, sirius satelite radio, mulinner shift knob, and mulinner gas cap. all of this adds up to $225,345 ( before taxes).
    Just thought i'd let every one know. BTW what is a better license plate for the car? blusmrf, itsaboy, or krzykar? my dad was leaning more towards blusmrf.
    Thanks,
    Vic

    my dads car has the cross stiching which is 300 dollars more than contrast. and plus, the way the interior has been configured, the price goes up even when you want your armrest to be saddle, not blue. 225 is also including the dealer mounted 6,000 mulinner wheels. when i get my camera i will get pics. stay tuned!

    I know how much the car is I bought the same one and I ordered cross stitching as well and there is no charge for changing interior colors. That is one of the perks of buying a bentley. The big options are the wheels, the wood inserts in the doors, the wood steering wheel and thats pretty much it. Everything else is a few hundred. Your price is high. I am not doubting your dad bought the car but the MSRP is not 225 without taxes.

    Could it be his dad could be paying a premium for the car? Are Betley dealers allowed to charge over sticker?

    Vik you either has issues or your father is a moron....This is the second thread in less then a week the first being the one with the lexus and the insurance issue and now this one where you not only don't have your facts straight but aren't even in the ballpark when it comes to what the truth is. You start trying to support what the price of the car is with hundred dollar options here and there then when you realize you are wrong blame the dealer. Just like before when you blamed the dealer for screwing you guys with the insurance saying the dealership had their own policy bs. From now on please don't post anything unless all your facts are true and they can be substantiated. I don't mind reading your posts or hearing about what your dad is getting, but if only post what you know to be 100% true. You should have just said what the car was and the colors no need for price most car people know what this **** costs. Later

    The GTC is in the hall.
    The GTCs are in my hall.
    The forum holds their laughing asses on the floor
    And every day the VK boy brings more.

    And if the damn car's ordered many years too soon
    And if there is no limit to the bill
    And if your hide's exposed with dark cross-stitching too
    I'll see you on the dark side of the moon.

    The GTC is in my head.

    They raise the price, you make the change
    You re-order it's nice wood grain.
    I'll lock the door
    And throw away the key.
    There's a car in your head and it's Bentley.

    And if the bastards overcharge Father
    You shout and no one seems to hear.
    And if the board you're on starts saying different runes
    I'll see you on the dark side of the moon.

    my dad is very anal about getting cars before his friends do because then they dont get it after my dad gets it. its sort of like if you like yachts, have a friend with a yacht. Get my drift. and teenferrarifan, you are the moron, I am appauled by your statement saying i have issues, and that my father is a moron. my dad falls for alot of stuff, but i dont have all of the info you want all the time. what can i say, we all have issues? how Do i know that you are a teenager and not a pedophile going calling very succesful and wealthy men morons, get the picture? I have ADHD Is that a problem, NO! So tell me do you have any "issues" or is your dad a moron.
    Oh and BTW ERIC, its VIC, not VIK. you got issues man.

    Vik reread some of your posts and it is clear who the one with issues is btw can I see more shots of your dads SL 65 or how your dad likes to have the latest and greatest yet still has a 4 year old Arnage? I am done though with the subject, and you have no idea that the people on this forum don't care what your dad is buying rather they enjoy making you look like an idiot ;). It sounds like your dad just liked to show off or make up for things he lacks maybe? Later

    woah! So many ideas all at once. I can relate to you. I have ADHD too. But **** man, you completely flipped out. Chill out. You get so defensive about this stuff. This goes back to the same problem we had months ago. You start up with these things about your dad's cars. It is great that you are so enthusiastic about it, but you have to realize that a lot of this seems far fetched. Here are the points that lead me to say this.
    1. Apparently the price is wrong.
    Now this could be that your dad was taken by the dealership. But, and this is a big but, in your profile, it shows that your dad has had many bentleys. This would lead us to assume that your dad must have a good relationship with the dealership. Also, the idea about how bentley does not charge for other options and stuff like that. Now this leaves many people skeptical. Unfortunately I have to bring this point back up. You lied to us once, what makes us think you won't do it again? You have a long road to gain the trust back of the members who stood by you.
    2. The lack of detail.
    You come out swinging when someone challenges you. You completely flip. It seems as though you are fighting for your livelihood. Then all of a sudden you say, "I don't have all the details."
    3. The multiple posts about new and different cars.
    Now I must admit, it is possible that your dad could have all of these cars, and get all of these cars at once. It is just that every week you say he gets 2 cars. It just seems far fetched. And there are always holes in your arguments.


    Well I just lost my complete train of thought, so I'll leave it at this.


    Chill out man. I know it can be hard to, I went through the same stuff. I still go through the same stuff. If you wanna talk about ADHD and things that have to do with it like ways to cope, I am here. Just PM me. Stuff can get overwhelming, and what other people who do not have ADHD know is that this sense of overwhelmingness (is that even a word) is quite intense with ADHD people.

    thank you for your comments. I really am fired up about the whole thing. Me and my dad were told that it costs money every time you have different stuff on the interior, My dad is calling the dealer tomorow about the premiem, my dad already closed the deal, but still at least he is the first one on the block with that car.
