The Bentley Mulsanne

 This car is not sound familiar but it is exotic and its features won't get it behind..
Like Rolls-Royce, its closest competitor, Bentley employs craftsmen patient enough to spend hours working on one piece of wood trim for the doors. The leather covering the seats comes from bulls, but not just any bulls. Bentley strips the hides from Scandinavian bulls for its seats, because apparently these cattle live free of barbed wire, which would mar their skin.

The navigation system itself is no better than that found in Audi models, and doesn't even offer the Google Earth integration seen in cars such as the Audi S5. It is very functional, and if you don't want to look at the brightly colored maps, the screen can hide away behind a wooden panel.

The real highlight of the cabin tech is the Naim audio system, a $7,415 option. This upgrade replaces the standard 14 speakers with 20, custom-made by Naim for Bentley. The amp rates at 2,200 watts, and each speaker gets its own channel.

Under the hood sits a Bentley standard 6.75-liter V-8, with twin turbochargers strapped on for good measure. This very English engine delivers 505 horsepower and 752 pound-feet of torque.

The body of the Mulsanne is pretty striking in itself. It features the big Bentley grille in front with subtly embedded headlights. From rear to front fenders, the sides present a completely smooth surface, the lack of seams being thanks to a welding process that requires many man-hours for initial strengthening and then finishing.

The upfront price of $290,000, before options, may sound utterly ridiculous to the average car buyer. However, with the build quality of the Mulsanne your financial manager can amortize the cost over its lifetime, which will probably be longer than yours.
