Help me ID this car . . . (no photo, just description)
So I keep seeing this same car on my twice weekly trip into the big city, and it's gorgeous, but there's not nameplate identifying it.
It's a sports coupe, and it looks somewhat like a Lotus Esprit, but with curves instead of angles. Yeah, I know that's no good for IDing it. The logo, however, might help. The logo is a circle with what appears to be angel's wings, with and 8 in the middle. I wanted to look it up on the internet, but don't know the make or model. So any help? What car has a winged circle with an 8 in the middle?

Possibly the new Bentley Continental?

Bingo!
It's usually passing me very quickly, so the B looked like an 8. This place is great, it took 29 minutes to id the make and model. My god, that is one gorgeous hunk of metal. Edit: I just googled it, and found the R & T review, and that's way too much car for me, in additon to which I could buy six more of my current car for that price. My wife, on the other hand, would be right at home in that sexy beast. Last edited by Gilda; 04-29-2005 at 10:18 AM.. |

Bentley's are more of a "Look at me, I have a car worth more than your house" car.
If I had that much money, I'd buy a house, and a car that could go faster than a Bentley. If my roommate (GetRDone) had that much money, he'd probably buy a garage, a bunch of tools, 5 different rare ass cars he could fix up, a cot to sleep on and he'd be in heaven.

Lotus Esprit
Bentley Continental Personally I don't see the resemblance, but I wouldn't kick either one of them out of my garage.

Hell, no! I'd KILL for two Esprits. The last V8, and the S4. Those two cars were incredible. The Bentley would be my daily driver!
