Grand Bentley Mulsanne Images surface
#27
I'm kinda undecided right now. I'ts not as bad as I feared, and it kind of grows on me, but it's not immediately brilliant either. I would like to see it in a darker colour and with wheels that aren't huge slabs of chrome, because I think that those two factors really doesn't do this car any favours.
The rear is weird. The taillights are gaudy, and the bootlid has more than a shade of Bangle-butt in it. The front isn't quite as bad as it looked on the spyshots, but it still looks a bit goofy, because it's a bit droopy from certain angles. The chrome grille surround and that chrome center spar in the lower grille doesn't help the front either, in my opinion.
On a larger scale, I'm disappointed in the designers' ability to update Bentley's traditional design language. This is more of a comical version of models past than a cool and contemporary reninterpretation.
Hopefully, I'll get around to going to Frankfurt and have a look at this in the metal.
