There are precisely no sales in the 'electric smart car' market. If Apple is going to build a car, it's going to be priced like they price everything — premium, but competitive. Most new cars in the U.S. cost over $30,000 — right where the upcoming Tesla Model 3 will be.

Hmmm... I'm watching you, Apple.

This is why I think it's stupid when people complain about 'rappers' ruining these cars, not realizing that heads of state, assorted royals, criminals, and businessmen around the world do far worse things to a Rolls-Royce than give it a matte black finish and 22" black wheels.

I believe the way of saying it in the Queen's English would be, 'They better not fuck this shit up.'

Thank you for the porn. Appreciate it, man.

There are obviously no perfect solutions here. But if a plate has to be upfront, this is a compromise I could live with:

It will be 500,000 euros, so that's $570,000 or so. The armored version will be more pricey (but will only be bought by heads of state and Russian oligarchs/mobsters.

It's coming, Manuel. Mercedes is being quiet, but the updated GL (rebadged a GLS) is coming later this year. The only question is if the Mercedes-Maybach GLS will be based on the current GL, or the next generation arriving in 2018.

There was a crazy rumor they'd make a crossover with the Evora. I don't know how the fuck that would work. Would they extend the body, adding rear legroom, and just raise it? Or would they turn it into a wagon? Or would it just be a lifted coupe?

Everything from VW and Audi is natively FWD. Even the A8 has FWD entry-level trims on sale in Europe. It's kind of tragic and sacrilegious to the market segment, to be honest.

That's exactly how the conversation can go. I'm sure they wouldn't even blink. They'd just tell you that you deserve the best blowjob, or nothing.

Mercedes, clearly. I believe they're offering another less powerful engine option for the standard Mercedes-Maybach S-Class in China.

Autocar reports the Bentley should start from around $180,000 — which seems to be the price floor for Bentley, around the Continental MSRP. It will likely go up to $300,000 and beyond, depending on options and customization. The Rolls-Royce is expected to cost from $375,000-$420,000 in terms of MSRP. But Autocar is…

I think the Porsche, Ferrari, and Lamborghini question isn't precisely the same.

Sorry it's so fucking long. The ghost of Maybachs past, present and future?

Although it'd break a little piece of my heart, if that were my F12, I'd just put the plate centered on the grille — covering the silver prancing horse. Or perhaps just below it — on the lower half of the grille and atop the front splitter.

You guys, Bentley's gonna be so fucking pissed.

When the Bentayga and Rolls arrive, the Land Rover will wake up to suddenly realize the Range Rover lost its prestige as Britain's greatest luxury SUV.

Fuck this is gorgeous. The 911 GT3 RS will be at Geneva, and it'll likely be a better car. But more people are going to be taking pictures of this. Cosmetic victory to Aston. As usual.

"No Aston, I'm not looking to buy one...but could it just bang me for a bit???"
