    I like how you're really humble it compares with other car reviewers that reviews bentleys, RRs, etc. Thanks for making these videos I love watching these for fun

    Hi Matt, thanks for the kind words about our video. We really appreciate it. BTW: On the tubes our videos get viewed 5 million times per month. That dwarfs the subscription of most, if not all, car magazine. That's pretty big in our humble opinion. Thanks for watching.

    How is the electric sunshade innovative? It was on an BMW 7 Series E65/66 a long time ago.

    Just bought myself a beautiful Silver 2012 Range Rover HSE(no prev. owner). Great review, this car is next after the Wraith (ordered). So many good looking cars out there.

    Looks better than a Rolls Royce Ghost. This is my next dream ultra luxury sedan.

    Why couldn't the Jaguar XJ go in this design direction instead of what they've done to the current XJ. British cars always looked so elegant and stately with the dual headlights & big grill.

    Hy Mr Roman. Great videos,thumbs up for them ! I have a question...is there a chance that you will do a review of the 2013 Mercedes-Benz G 350 ? or the G 63 AMG ? I've watched a few reviews on that car and not one was helpfull and concludent for me. If you have time,please give me a reply. Thank you and best wishes !

    Roman, what was the speed limits in China? Was the drivers area roomy? Looks like there's not much head room. Good review.

    That is very impressive. Is that 5 million unique viewers or numerous repeats of the same subscribers on different videos? I'm just curious to see as a comparison if I were looking to start a sort of online presence in another subject, because what you guys do is pretty amazing.

  • @stefanofranco
    @stefanofranco 11 лет назад

    Will Bentley's effort to make this car less "two-door oriented" (aka: "not as sporty" and "more luxurious") cause it to cannibalize sales of similar Rolls Royce offerings?
    Thanks for the beautiful video of a pretty car in that exotic environment, Roman! Am appreciating your and Nathan's long-distance trips just to get shots of these new cars to us/your viewers first!!

    Yeah the S Class is perfection for a little over $100k. It's brick shithouse solid, very well equipped, elegant, comfortable, quiet, refined, fast and it's actually athletic especially with the ABC component of the airmatic suspension. This Bentley is simply a status symbol, the S Class actually represents value when you come to think of it.

    6:35 that shifter gate was lifted straight form the parts bin at VW. I know they own Bentley, but I don't think it should share parts with a Volkswagen, but then again, you can't see that from the back seat! and as always great review!

    So Bentley flew you to China? What connections do you guys have to be able to test all these cars and have people fly you places? I love your videos, but here on the tubes you guys don't seem to have a huge viewer base, so just wondering.

    @max19731978 11 лет назад

    nah, thats a lie. Torque gives you the initial thrust at low rpm, HP is what gives you the accel at higher rpm. HP is roughtly torque times rpm. Diesel is high torque-low accel, vtec (or F1) is low torque-high accel. You gotta watch the EngineeringExplained channel to get the right facts.
