I don't hate the look of the CGT ......the basic concept of the design is good ...but too much of that VW geometry and bulbous forms got worked into what should have been a more sinuous shape IMO (like the Mercedes CL)

As for taking inspiration from the 1920's ....I'm not sure exactly how they could do that very successfully without the end result looking like it belonged in a Batman comic ...but those old cars do have a lot of presence. However dOmInIX, I think you and I are in the minority ...it would seem that most people don't share our interest in these old Bentleys.
