    Default Trading up or down?

    Thinking of trading in my '08 Bentley Continental Flying Spur for a Rolls Royce Ghost...

    Bentley: 552 hp, AWD, 195mph
    Rolls: Pure Luxury and a driver's car...

    Prefer the rolls myself. Just the body lines are enough to make the change imo. But also remember that this advice is coming from someone who drives a scion
    God bless our troops! BOMB Them!!! Best target there is!

    Have you thought about a Ford Focus? Nasty car, 0-60 in like 8 secs.

    I drive a '93 Mazda Protege. It's a beautiful golden brown color. :D

    Personally, there's a number of other vehicles I'd have in similar price ranges, but I'd want them for a combination of luxury and performance, not just luxury. Neither of those vehicles are really a car for anything other than luxury. They aren't exactly cars designed for performance driving regardless of the large bi-turbo engines in them, mainly just pure luxury.

    If I had to go Bentley or Rolls, I'd probably look at the Continental GT instead.

    The Bentley is probably worth more than what I paid for my 2,200 sq ft house, and it has a full basement... but not 552for hp and 195... That is one smooth car!

    Nice car, I guess I like most people have never driven any of those cars but I like Bently more than the RR. I think RR is a car when you have a driver and Bently if you are doing the driving.

    I have a better idea...why don't you trade me your Bentley even up for my '94 Chevy pickup? It's only got 115,000 miles and comes with standard Minnesota rust (no extra charge).
