Bentley Arnage R, T, RL
Prestige
Mar 01, 2006
Bentley says, "no other production car in the world can be built more closely to the customer's precise specification," than the Arnage sedan. Available in R, long wheelbase RL and high performance T models, the car is a prime, if rare, example of British coachbuilding and hand craftsmanship. In 2002, the Arnage's chassis had a complete makeover, followed by design and suspension tweaks last year. It rolls into '06 unchanged. Owners can choose from 40 standard colours, plus dual tones, and 27 interior hides, not to mention, further customization from Bentley's tuning arm, Mulliner. As the automaker says, "the only constraints are of imagination, and perhaps the broad bands of good taste."

True personalization, 645 lb-ft of torque available
