Why shouldn't I buy a Bentley Arnage?

It had a nice old school, hand made feel that was about it. If you can get it for that cheap, why not.
Is there a high-end car you haven't owned?

Mike hasn't owned any real high end cars. No Enzo, no Zonda. He's supposedly got a Carrera GT with gauges still wrapped in plastic, but the government doesn't even allow him to drive it - sort of like being married to Heidi Klum without the benefit of the secks. All you get is the nagging. So in reality he doesn't have a Carrera GT any more than I do.

Jox, this thread made me happy on a relaitvely fail-y morning. It would be the coolest car purchase on TS ever, Jox in an Arnage? I mean think about it? So friggin cool. I'd rock one with a pair of jeans, a t-shirt and some sneakers all day long
Probably not the smartest car decision you will take in your life but most definately the coolest. I'd try to get one with the facelift front if I were you.

^ Honestly! I was just saying to myself how those wheels are stunning!

I love how an Arnage would look parked on the street on Slöddermalm all day long . . .

Am I crazy for wanting an Arnage in a loud color? Red? Yellow?

...and you thought the 964 was sucking your wallet dry.

You know how Mike said it has a nice "handmade" feel about it it? Well that's only partially correct. I don't believe the guys in Crewe have hands. Probably more like stumps, because they can't tighten down fasteners, like screws and bolts, for shit.

Keeping the Azure on the road will cost more than supplying the habit of a cocaine-addicted elephant - steep depreciation, massive insurance bills and horrendous fuel economy.

Tom Hartley : Arnage T Mulliner II

It really was the most fun i've had in a car - you go 30mph and feel like a fvcking king on the road. We were 50/50 on this one, it was a few months before we got the 348. I took my 50% out to buy the 348, my uncle kept the Red label and lost his ass on the thing.

Red label 2001:
