Bentley Designers Lash Out On Lincoln Calling Continental Concept A Rip-off And A Joke

"I would have called it Flying Spur concept and kept the four round lights," Donckerwolke sardonically wrote on his Facebook page, according to Road&Track. "I thought this was only done in China? Finally a 'Bentley for the masses' though," responded another designer in the comments.

Donckerwolke didn’t stop there, as he reportedly posted a sarcastic question on Lincoln Design Director David Woodhouse's Facebook page, though it was promptly removed: "Do you want us to send the product tooling?"

Bentley's design boss was far from done, as he spoke to Car Design News: "This behavior is not respectable. Building a copy like this is giving a bad name to the car design world."

The British brand's exterior design chief, Sangyup Lee, agreed describing the Lincoln as "a joke," and adding, "It is very disappointing, especially for an exclusive brand like Lincoln."

If you like cars, yes it is. Especially if you go with your friends who are just as enthusiastic about cars as you.

If you could care less about cars then your time is better spent elsewhere.


One thing that annoys me though are parents who brings their little kids and just sets them loose. :smh:
