Bentley Mulsanne, 48th Street and Madison Avenue

 
The new Mulsanne in the flesh, and good lord is there a hell of a lot of it. Looks quite good in person, but the vestigial auxiliary lamps, creased wings and high beltline won't age well, I don't think. In styling terms, all Bentley have done is stimulate the cottage industry of Chrysler 300 imitators. I'm sure none of that really matters much when you settle in, feel the aristocratic Bentleyish whomp of the doors, and surge away. I had this sensation in a Turbo RT once and it's terribly nice.
