Hmmm, I'm just surprised anyone from Philly didn't put up more of a fight. Must be from West Chester. (ha).

More like downward into the toilet. . It appears that some of my Pelican brothers lost an opportunity to get some value out of noticing what came up for them as they read phiiy1963's first post. I mean, that which comes up for us prior to our judgement and evaluation of others. Of course, that takes a little self-reflection...not always the most enjoyable of experiences. . . . Oh well, this IS a forum of opinions, after all, I guess.

I think Phil is pretending to be his dad.

Philly, the important question here is: is your wife 100% stock or have you invested in some upgrades?

Wow ... I hate almost all of you guys ... Again, one of my cars for sale is a 944 turbo w 43k miles ... If you did your research you see ended ebay auctions north of $20k for comparable cars ... My other car for sale on ebay is a 78 911sc with a Great engine build in Carrera RS trim ... My point on the bentley was only that I'm enjoyed some seat time in some great cars and I've driven them at 10/10ths and not much gets me spun up anymore and I always thought of the bentley as a ponderous poorly engined British car for old guys ... And it's an Audi w12 engine w 552bhp ... Decent suspension and great coach work ... It's heavy at 5200 lbs but it's surprisingly fun to drive and I kinda like the comfort and space and not rowing gears ... Maybe I'm am just getting to be an old guy ... But some of you guys are haters ... Anyway I was hoping for comments from guys that have actually had some seat time in sports cars and a bentley continental ... Thanks Phil PS I've tried to load some pics from my iPad ...if you'd like to see more let me know ...

Nice collection, philly. I'm down to 6 cars now, much to my wife's joy. My favorite 911, a 78 SC, is laid up due to a broken head stud. I can't afford a Bentley but love driving my Audi S4. I'm almost 60 but still rowing the gears. It's a 6 speed. Don't be too put off by everyone. Stick around, car guy.

For a monent I thought "sniper" was back under a new name
....I have driven the above mentioned car and you are correct, its a beast...but all in all just a bit too pretentious for my taste and certainly not a car that from my experience on this forum not many here would have an much interest in...which is a good thing in my humble opinion...

Wow, you've got a Jeepster, and in cream. I used to pass one same colour every day
walking to school in north London in the early 60's, and I''ll bet it was the only one in the UK then, and have wanted one ever since, but never actually chased one up.My distant relative has one,not in England,immaculate in black,in his car museum, but he wouldn't sell it to me.

Sounding more legit... most images posted exist only here. I can understand having too many cars syndrome, there are a lot more fun project cars out there that I'd like to take than I have time, space or funds for.
I don't know much about modern Bentleys, the only one I've messed with was a 1924 3 Liter Speedster. It's far slower and less comfortable than the newer ones

Great collection but now we know you are a fake. An 850 Spider without rust...impossible!

Wow nice collection.
I would be proud to own any of them, but to own all of them? You have obviously made some good decisions in life. LOVE the Jeepster!!
