Bentley Arnage to get Bugatti engine?

[wlawson86]

I think an Arnage W16 is a great idea. It would really revive the Arnage image. That being said I dont think the W16 would be the only Arnage engine if Bentley does start putting it in their cars. I would expect the price of the Arnage W16 to be around $550,000 to $650,000 so they would need a lower model Arnage to stay in the $300,000 price range it's in right now. Maybe the W12 they use in the Continental or just continue with the V8. It will be similar to the way Mercedes has the S550 & S600 class and how BMW has the 750 & 760 series. It's exciting stuff. I wonder what the horsepower of the W16 would be.... 700? 800 maybe?

why not just use the Continental GT's V12?

I hope VW learn from the conti GT that technology is no substitute for what has made bentley so good in the past. I don't think Ferrer would approve of this tech loaded arnage, understated ability and class is what its all about.
