Named All-Star two times during his career as a baseball player, third baseman for the Milwaukee Brewers Aramis Ramirez hits a touch down with his brand new luxury sedan. He recently got it back from MC Customs, aMiami based auto shop where the car was having the wheels replaced with VM 13-22’ (55 cm) Monoblock ones.
Now that is what you call a celebrity ride. We’re talking about a tidal wave of luxury torque that hides a monster under the hood. The 2014 Bentley Flying Spur has a twin-turbo W12 6-liter engine that develops 660 horsepower and a peak torque of 590 lb-ft (799 Nm). When you ride in it, its grudge is the only thing you get to hear before you reach the 62 mph (100 km/h) mark, which is 4,2 seconds.
It’s a white rocket ship that Bentley’s engineers compare with cars like the Mercedes S-Class , while others think it competes with the Rolls-Royce Ghost itself. Having an 8-speed transmission, it is what you call a car made for the opulent lifestyle, while still keeping things classy.
Well, looking at the sportsman’s career it’s not such a big surprise he’ll be driving a car worth more than $200,000 (EUR 146,500). The 35-year old American baseball player has a 359 home runs record that speaks for itself.
Being a Bentley, it doesn’t really matter whether you are the one driving or you are on the passenger seat. Actually, considering you can fit two champagne bottles in the rear-fridge, staying in the back doesn’t really sound like such a bad idea.
