...and note that the Bentley Continental is based on the VW Phaeton,
isn't it? (Some body and interior tweaks, stuff in a [VWAG-designed]
motor which, depending on flavor, might deliver as much as 600 HP / 553
lb-ft and your Bentley-badged 5500-pound steel-bodied car scoots from
0-60 MPH in 4-1/2 seconds. They don't need no stinkin' Audi A8 aluminum
body when there's entirely too much power on tap!)
