Bentley Arnage - Azure

Azure

On 17 January 2005, the Arnage Convertible concept car, also known as the Arnage Drophead Coupe, was shown at the Los Angeles Auto Show. In April 2005, Bentley confirmed that the model would be produced at Crewe for Spring 2006 sales. Bentley also confirmed the new model will adopt the Azure tag, replacing the previous Azure as the company's large four-seat convertible.

The new Azure uses a 6.75 litre twin-turbo V8 engine which produces 455 metric horsepower (335 kW; 449 bhp) and 874 newton metres (645 lbf·ft), and is capable of a top speed of 270 kilometres per hour (168 mph). The Azure is set to be priced at $320,000.00.

Famous quotes containing the word azure:

    Underneath Day’s azure eyes,
    Ocean’s nursling, Venice lies,—
    A peopled labyrinth of walls,
    Amphitrite’s destined halls,
    Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)

    When Britain first, at Heaven’s command,
    Arose from out the azure main,
    This was the charter of her land,
    And guardian angels sung the strain:
    Rule, Britannia! Britannia rules the waves!
    Britons never shall be slaves.
    James Thomson (1700–1748)

    I was the shadow of the waxwing slain
    By the false azure in the windowpane;
    I was the smudge of ashen fluff—and I
    Lived on, flew on, in the reflected sky.
    Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
