It may be hard to believe, but Bentley was once the economy brand of Rolls Royce. Bentleys lacked some of the bells and whistles and were designed for the rich, as opposed to the filthy rich who got to drive Rolls Royces (or, more accurately, who got to ride in Rolls Royces driven by their butlers). Bentley really emerged as a quality luxury brand in its own right about a decade ago as the entertainment community started to embrace these luxury cars. Rappers were rapping about Bentleys, and movie stars were showing up at the Oscars in them. Bentley found its own niche by becoming the uber-luxury car that people would actually want to drive themselves as opposed to sitting in the back and shouting at some poor British man in a suit where to go. Bentley is now Rolls Royce - with performance. The 2000 Bentley Arnage pictured above is the perfect car for your security team with its black paint job, and its on the auction block starting at $30,000, a fraction of the original retail price.
