The BEST Car From Britain?

Does driving a car that carries an MSRP of $227,205 guarantee you are going to love it immediately?

Not me. By the time you cross the $100,000 threshold, the degree of specialness implied by the stratospheric price usually translates into flawed ergonomics, inferior controls and instrumentation, and the general unease that comes from having anything that expensive put under your custodianship (even temporarily).

Every single of them is sold to other companies right?

And i wonder, how come we don't make any car that costs that much of money. We have the best tech (MIT, Havard and more) and the best design (all the new york art school)

well the Green Jaguar was very handsome 10 years ago.

Your Automotive products are Average
Your Building Designs are Average
Your Fashion Designs are Average
Your Watchmakers are Average

So exactly how do you have the Best ?

We have (had) the most cash to blow on research and development of new technologies. That, coupled with a free society that encourages creativity is what leads to the American society. And welcome to globalization. Louis Vuitton? Marc Jacobs - American. This is just one example.

However, to get tit-for-tat specific, America has the best music and entertainment industry, as evidenced by the extreme emulation of both around the world. There is a reason American culture is so envied and copied.

As far as the actual "article" here, I'd be quite happy with an Aston DBS. I think it is my favorite British car right now.

As far as tech research goes, a lot comes out of the USA. Look no further than major patent kings - IBM, Intel, Apple, Boeing.

Design - Apple, BMW (Bangle), Nike, Ralph Lauren, Versace

Yes Louis Vuitton is French. Marc Jacobs is the Creative Director at Louis Vuitton (as well as the label of his own namesake). Every design that comes from them is a direct result of him, just FYI.

This statement is irrelevant because a Bentley Owner Commissions his car to his/her tastes and the vehicle is custom designed for the owner. This is key to understand, and if the company has to thye can adjust seats, peddles, steering wheels and make the "ergonomics" right for the owner. Since Chief little nuts will never own one of these cars he obviously will not like it because the CAR was NOT made for him!!!!!

Is it even legal for autospies to put their watermark on someone else's photo? I highly doubt it.

American music the best? Oh my... I believe you are listening to a lot of french, spanish, russian, german, etc music so you are viable to make such bold comparisons and conclusions. Comparing cars is different since they pretty much all play global roles. Music does not.
