My car rides kind of harsh.

Everything about the car is second to none in terms of quality, craftsmanship, luxury, blah blah blah.

But the price tag just does not come CLOSE to justifying it.

At least with the Rolls Royce Phantom you get sick things like electrically heated glass, iDrive, and all this other crazy shit that is totally unnecessary and costs so much anyways. And with the Phantom, the only maintenance you need to do is fill the tank with gas. The dealership washes, waxes, cleans and conditions the leather, and does everything else needed to keep that car looking and running clean and great!!!!

Trust me on this one, no car is worth paying over $100K for except if it's a 911 Turbo. Everything else over $100K has awful resale value, you don't get nearly what you pay for it, and you can enjoy a sub-$100K car just as much.

The thing is, with these expensive cars, they are hand-made and you pay for them being hand-made. But do you really want a hand-made car? Sure, cars aren't rocket science, but what would you rather have building your car? A human who is capable of mistakes, or a robot that is so accurate and precise it will make you cry.

The dollars go into the Bentley name....go towards your status....and to the looks of utter jealousy from the people like me. Sure you can buy a Merc for half the price, but everyone has a Merc...not special.....not everyone has a Bentley and that is where the dollars go...EXCLUSIVITY. I wouldn't kick her out of bed for not having Xenons...JMO
Neither would I, but I was just giving you an example. $100,000 buys you a Mercedes or BMW that will act as a masseuse among other ridiculsous things. Merc and BMW laugh at the fact that this car doesn't even have xenon headlights.

No doubt the interior is like a land yacht, but yachts have way more technology and luxury and for what you pay for a Bentley, you should get much much much more.

Let's say you compare it to an S500, which is $100K nicely loaded, whereas the average Arnage goes for $300K. The Arnage simply does not deliver 3 times the car as an S500 (doesn't even come close in fact) and I can never ever justify purchasing one.
