If you want the most tech, the most space, and a chauffeur, you really can't go wrong.

This is only one wheel option. There will be others. And because the car is so customizable, you can basically dictate any option you want from the broader S-Class or Mercedes lineup.

It'd be easy for them to do a mirror finish on the existing tables that fold into the center console.

I like this, and I'm happy for Lotus that they're working with what they've got.

Autocar reports sales have improved steadily in Europe and Asia. They're not really reported on here anymore, given the partial pullout bc of regs, but the new CEO (formerly of PSA) seems to be much better at everything than Dany Bahar. Customers have responded favorably to more power in the Elise/Exige, the Exige…

The Evora used to start at $6X,XXX and go up from there. Wouldn't be surprised to see this one start in the 70s and 80s — understandable given the improvements and the company's need to have higher profit margins.

I, for one, find the S-Class far more handsome than it's usually given credit for. And the tech in this simply cannot be found in anything else. And now they have the space advantage — six seats instead of four or five.

I get where you're coming from, but I'm with Evan. If you had the money, buy both. After all, the Phantom can't seat five passengers (plus a driver).

Autocar has a recent report reaffirming that Porsche will build a 928 Panamera coupe, Ferrari 488 rival, and eventual 918 successor. So allegedly, they're coming.

That's precisely the layout this has. There are six seats in this. The middle ones are folded up in the vehicle photographed. And pictures of them aren't featured in this gallery.

Thank you. I'll be sure to bring Stallone and his gunplane. You want to get in on this?

This. Precisely fucking this.

Chinese customers may opt for the V8. Vehicles are priced by displacement in the PRC. They're buying it for the opulence and space, not power. It's not like you can go quicker than 10 mph in Beijing traffic.

Can someone find me a banana republic to conquer?

Mercedes is promising unrivaled customization. For the right money, I'm sure they could meet your needs if you want more of a bench situation.

A two-seater sports GT to compete against Astons and front-engine Ferraris. Sold alongside the Continental GT ($180,000 - $210,000+). Based on the brand new MSB platform engineered by Porsche for the next Panamera. Therefore much lighter than the Conti.

A Rolls for your dog? Shouldn't we just wait for their SUV in a few years?

I look forward to it. In camo, it sorta reminds me of a cross between the current R8 and the Noble M600 (a certain crispness of shape and profile).

Because it's still on the platform of the Volkswagen Phaeton — a natively FWD platform with AWD capability. It's not a front mid-engine design (like many Mercs or Rolls-Royces). It's just front-engine, so the V8 or W12 is jammed in the bay and hangs over the front axle. This is not good for dynamics, but Bentley gets…

Upvote for that fucking Jag!
