Expensive VW: 2005 Bentley Continental GT W12


This next car comes as a tip from JG who writes: I know it’s a tick over the $25k cap, but I’m sure some relatively easy negotiation will get it under that. I think “Bentley” is Latin for “depreciation” as this car’s original MRSP was over $155k. This is probably the most economical way to look like you have way more money in the bank than you actually do (speaking for myself that is), but you most likely won’t have much in said bank after something goes wrong. That being said, the sound of a 550hp twin turbocharged W12 does have a nice ring to it. Find this 2005 Bentley Continental GT W12 offered for $25,995 in La Crescenta, CA via cargurus.com.

Ah yes, a wise man once said “The only thing more expensive than a cheap V12 Mercedes is a cheap W12 Bentley. ” :)
If all goes wrong, which inevitably would, make a nice table and a sofa set. W would be better balance than V when putting glass on top, and I love the diamond stitching on the seats!
Didn’t Jeremy Clarkson on top gear built Porsche 928 set?
