TO THE POINT What's New? The newest upgrades to the Bentley Arnage are round headlights, a revised bonnet line, and a choice of grilles. Inside, ergonomics have been improved, secondary controls are now hidden under panels, new instruments and a DVD satellite navigation system have been added, and Bentley will dress the car in your choice of 40 colors and 27 leather options.
Selling Points: Exclusivity and myriad ways to customize it to specific tastes
Deal Breakers: Price of entry is excessively high, lacks the latest technologies and luxuries

2006 Bentley Arnage R

Each Bentley Arnage R is fit with an all-aluminum, 400-horsepower, twin-turbo 6.75-liter V8 that produces an impressive 616 lb.-ft. of torque. All of the power is fed to the rear wheels through an aging four-speed adaptive automatic transmission. Bentley claims a 0-60 mph acceleration time of six seconds flat and a governed top-speed of 155 mph. At this price level one might expect at least a five- or six-speed transmission, especially with Mercedes-Benz and Lexus upping the ante in current models with seven- and eight-speed transmissions.
