Bentley Azure

The Bentley Azure is the newest in the line of many Bentley convertibles revered for their magnificent comfort and luxury. It is certainly a very classy and gorgeous car, one that will never fail to make an impact. Since the resurrection model appeared in January of 2005, the Azure has only become more impressive with every year.

Several upgrades were made on the Azure from the 2005 to 2006 model, including 50 more bhp, a 13 mph top speed increase, a change from 17 in wheels to 19 in, bigger disk brakes, and it even became slightly larger. But more importantly, the Azure embodies the long and rich history of Bentley luxury sedans, and it truly looks like a vehicle only fit for the most wealthy and genteel.

As with all Bentleys, the new Azure is a symbol of money, respect, and class. It is truly an heir fit to take on the unparalleled Bentley legacy. And, as always, Bentley Motors will make personal modifications to any part of the car for its new owner, even if they aren’t part of the standard listed requirements.

Aston Martin Vanquish S

Revealed in 2001, the Vanquish became the new flagship model for the world-renowned Aston Martin. This time, however, it combined high-end technology with the classic power and beauty of the former Aston Martins. It even put James Bond back in the seat of an Aston for the first time since the mid-60’s in the DB5.

Suited up with technologies adapted from the Formula One racing series, an advanced computer not only provides super-luxurious commodities on the inside, but super-performance on the outside. With the main body structure being composed of carbon-fiber, extruded aluminum and composite materials and new Brembo anti-lock brakes, the Vanquish is not only light, but it also has extreme stopping power.

With its swift steering, huge grip in corners, strong suspension, wonderful engine noise and, of course, its beautiful styling, the Vanquish is undoubtedly one of the world’s most premiere GTs.
