I love the shape of the grille.

It doesn't have that usual V shape that is so common.

And, tell me again, why was everyone in this room de-boosted?

Must be some marauding Lexus fan boy who didn't like the topic.

Or a stupid German fan testing out their latest user account.

Will, you know the German fans wouldn't go around de-boosting everyone to -15 like they did in the 335i forum... for no reason.

Some of them, I just despise. What is wrong with some of you people?... it beats me.

UMmmm... They certainly did in the IS-F vs. M3 thread, the LS600hL thread, and the LS460L review. You honestly believe that 15 DIFFERENT people deboosted everything I said just to make me feel bad? I don't think so.

Nobody de-boosts you! It's the Lexus fans who do these things!

Go through some of the blogs that have nothing to do with Lexus. Usually, someone will say something positive about the car in the article. It's usually European, and even when a German fan states factual information and says that he/she admires the car, they get de-boosted by Lexus fans. Not severely, but to at least -2.

Then, go through the BMW 335 convertible blog. I was de-boosted to -17 for NO REASON. I said how much I liked the 335i and the new M3, and that I thought the 3 was better-looking than the Z4 and SLK. That's it!

Liar. Don't tell me you don't deboost me, and don't tell me that you didn't see that I was deboosted to -16 in the same thread, for actually making a semi-positive statement about the damn BMW.

get the 7 speed DSG from the Veyron?

7 speed? I thought it was a six-speed.

If it's a seven-speed, Audi NEEDS TO PUT THAT IN EVERY CAR IN THEIR LINEUP. Right now!

Good, the Bentley is one of the ugliest cars on the road. (just kidding!!!!)

Although it's out of my price range, it is one of my favorite cars. It has one of the nicest interiors available right now.

Agree. It's hard to improve upon the A8/Phaeton's interiors, but they've done it. And it still feels so British in there.

Dont get me wrong; I like Lexus. But can someone tell me how in the hell does the word Lexus come up in a Bentley article? Some of you guys are amusing...

The GTC is a dream. I hope it gets better, unlike most luxury car makers who seem to be going south in the styling department.
