    So I Did a Thing

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    A while ago there was talk from me about Charging the RS or buying a Bentley...so I did something foolish:







    Only dealer pics for now, next year I'll actually be able to see the car.

    I can't wait to find out in person, it still hasn't hit me yet that I actually went through with it.

    Civilian Navy; so yeah...I won't get to see the car at all and it sucks.

    I'll be having it shipped to NEPA next week-if it survives the storm in one piece.

    Honestly, I slightly preferred the coupe but it doesn't bother me even the slightest that I came across a GTC that fit the bill.

    I had browsed for almost a year just researching everything about them-so I knew what I wanted in one. This one had the options, was certified, has brand new tires-brakes-CA's-battery-and top, and the price was too good to pass up.

    seems like the most appropriate, yet strange, matchup for a garage. On the one hand you have the raucous 8200RPM V8 with a stickshift as the sports car, and the other a W12 grand tourer with a smooth automatic as the relaxed driver. It only gets weird when you realize the sports car is a sedan and the GT car is a 2 door ragtop

    It is contrary, but that GT will keep up with the RS in the straight-I made sure to land on the Speed model.

    Pretty sure the GT will spank the RS4 to 30 and be close at 60 - making it quicker in pretty much all practical circumstances.

    I don't think you will be driving the RS4 much after you get the new ride!
