Save for Porsche, the stuff that isn't is usually boring as hell.

Buy the fun / interesting car. Let the boring people drive the latest Toyota Vacuum Cleaner sedan.
Kind of OT, but what a well done ad for the Phaeton.

I don't know if it was just on the Bentleys or the Phaetons as well, but I recall the packaging in the engine bay being so ridiculous that the car required an engine-out service to access simple repairs like cabin filters (or something equally mundane)... The result is something that should be a few hundred dollars to fix - with maybe a hundred dollars in parts - ended up costing multiple thousands.
