Oh my!! ! Tell us about these two...please. Tried to look them up and guess...what type of Bentley is that first one? Was trying to go by context clues...haha, was leaning toward maybe an Arnage. Fun to guess, even though I'm probably wrong. :P


What Stallone's got there is a Royals Royce Phantom

I had a preview snapshot of the design and managed to pair it to this..

That's not a Rolls Royce----THIS is a Rolls Royce:

Here's one of my favorites, of that make:

I always LOVED the Rolls Royce, in the movie "Arthur", as well!!

Here's a 1952 Phantom:

When I last checked.. it wasn’t what I originally interpreted, mainly because I couldn’t see the 'tell tell' designs found on the logo, was it an R, for Royal’s Royce which I predicted or B for Bentley.

I am familiar with Bentley’s but not with Royal’s Royce’s as much. (Don’t see too many about my way, unless it’s for a big occasion, like a groom or brides pickup).

Anyway, Stallone has such a vast selection of these, I scoured some more on it, and found out it’s in fact
A Bentley Continental GT coupe,(2 seater), which I found via the web link off my google image search.
Some time posed in the new year.

It seems he likes Bentley’s a lot, vast ranging from Cobra Bentley’s to these grand Torino’s .

Rolls Royce Phantom

Both were in partnership for a long time too.

A Mansory Rolls Royce Wraith, more stylish, and me. :wink:

That's FABULOUS!!

You know what----maybe other people already know this, but----I'm thinking Chitty Chitty Bang Bang was a ROLLS, cuz if you paint the hood, red, on the car you posted, and put-down the top, it looks EXTREMELY similar to CCBB!

Okay thanks for looking it up. I couldn't quite figure it out either, just knew it was a Bentley...couldn't figure out the model. It's a classy car.

A.) If money were no object, I'd get a nice car that is very environmentally friendly (probably electric). I'd also get a personal chauffeur since I don't drive.

B.) Since I don't drive, I will not be getting a car. However, in the future I may want to get an electric bicycle or something similar to do local shopping. Would be nice since it goes a little faster than a regular bicycle. Other than that I'll use public transportation and the occasional taxi.

You're welcome!!

I especially like that 1952 Phantom, cuz it reminds me of my eldest brother's bike (same color; but, I forget the make). He is a gold-plater (hobby); so, if you can imagine a bike that color, with all this gold plating all over it----OMG! It's the most amazingly gorgeously tricked-out bike, I've ever seen, in my LIFE!!

I really, REALLY need to get a picture account----just so you guys can see his bike, ALONE!!
