Is this better than the LWB Phantom and Maybach 62

Only 20 Mulliner coachbuilt Bentley Arnage Limousines will be made -each one will be completely customized to the buyers personal requirements.

The Bentley brand name is enough for me to place it above Maybach but i can't say that it's better the RR.
Phantom is a more advanced car (technologically) and it has a brand name of the same value with Bentley if not even better.

If i had to choose one of those three cars, i would definitely choose Bentley. It looks more classy and elegant, not flashy like the RR and not with a very familiar design like Maybach. As for the technology that those cars have, even the last one has so much that i don't care about the most advanced! (since all are waaaay more advanced than all the cars i have driven in my life!)
BTW, that combo looks great on that Bentley. I have seen that colour combination (at person) only one more time in my life! On a 1939 MB 540K

I dont know, im thinking the Phantom is just more sexier, and elegant!

Nice pics though, color is not my choice for sure!

Beside im still in love with this car:

I like the Bentley, I suppose. I don't care for what technical limitations it might have, that's not very important in a car like this, IMO. What I like is that the car will have the old world customisation as well as the right image - not flashy like the Rolls, and British like I believe a good limousine should be. Well, as British as Bentley is these days, anyhow.

Colour combo's not bad, though I would rather delete the silver and replace it with the maroon - three colours is too much, even when one is a metallic 'non-colour'.

the interior of this bently is much more old world and classic which is great sometimes and still has a great road presence
i would still choose the rr but i dont like the mybach its just nothin special

This is indeed a very good luxury car for people who still love the old "luxury world". This car is definetly not for the mass like our average celebs with no taste at all. Most people who would buy this will probably be people like Prins Albert of Monaco or a british with the name Sir Alexander dressed in a taliored Hackett sports coat, with a Breitling Chronomat restling comfortably on his manicured left hand. Off course he has a muddy 1970s Rang rover parked on his drive way out side this castle in Scottland.

The more I compare the Bentley Arnage to the Phantom and the Maybach, the more I like it. Also contrary to popular belief, the current Arnage is a very high-tech machine indeed - quite capable of keeping up with it's competitors. What makes Bentley particularly desirable is that Bentley offer the most scope for personalization.

Just like VAG to put out a special edition model at the end of a chassis' life. They are discontinuing this for the new Flying Spur right?
