    I am more average guy, could not hope to afford a car half their price any time soon. But if it were up to me to choose one, I think the W12 says "Bentley" more than the v8 does. I associate Bentley with luxury. W12 being smoother more emphasizes that. Definitely my dream car no questions asked.

    The coupe because I like the integrity of having the hardtop. Plus my road racing background I'm afraid of what happens if I end up upside down. The W12... YES! I was just looking at Wikipedia and saw that the Speed has another 24 horsepower. Plus the double clutch gearbox in the newer models.

    Interesting comparison, thanks!
    However I feel it was a bit flawed. In order to make a valid comparison between the V8 and the W12, you perhaps should have used the similar car for both - either the coupé or convertible.
    Now you had different cars for each of the engines. I wonder how much of your decision of the engine was actually based on the different qualities of the coupé versus convertible.

    12 cylinder colour looks Fab ... pity you never opened up the glass roof seeing as the 2021 models has this feature for the first time .... for me I would prefer to purchase a RR .... People in the money bracket no doubt also own a sports car so it not all about the handling although you must admit the interior especially in the coup is fantastic but not as special as a RR ...

    DEFINITELY THE COUPE
    BUT ENGINE CHOICE IS A LITTLE MORE DIFFICULT TO AGREE ON .... THE DIFFERENCE IN PERFORMANCE IS NOT REALLY THAT GREAT A DIFFERENCE AND THE 8 GETS A LITTLE BETTER MILEAGE ON TRIPS AND AROUND TOWN . I BELIEVE THE 8 WILL OUT SURVIVE THE 12 FOR THE NEAR FUTURE AND WILL BE USED IN MANY MORE CARS THAN THE 8 .... I'LD GO WITH AN 8 COUPE MOST LIKELY .. BUT JUST GOTTA TAKE A 12 FOR A SPIN JUST TO EXPERIENCE THE SMOOTH MASSIVE TORQUE .... CARBON FIBER IS NOT EVEN IN THE SAME GAME COMPARED TO THE MAGNIFICENT BENTLEY WOOD VENEER INTERIOR
    AND MAYBE ONE OF THE BEST FACTORS IS THE COMPLETE ABSENCE OF PLASTIC KNOBS OR TRIM
    I BELIEVE THIS COULD BE ONE OF THE BEST BENTLEYS EVER .... IT CERTAINLY DOES SHOW THAT THEY HAVE SPENT A LOT OF TIME TO REFINE THIS MASTERPIECE OF AN AUTOMOBILE !!!!!
