Umm... there really aren't many differences to be honest. Two of my cousins are looking over the spec choices for their cars now (though you can't actually spec a car out with the dealer yet... the dealer wants an idea of what type of options they are interested in). Very limited exterior and interior color options. I believe there are only 3 interior colors for now. Black, cream with black, and cream with navy.

there actually are...the dealer where I purchased my continental had the ex in for customers, I was in the market for the car, but after talking to the dealer about the as they put it "subtle" difference I decided to give up..

The 100ex is based on the Phantom platform...100ex is longer, wider and more powerful,...however it is definitely a beautiful car,

yes the dimensions are slightly different, and the car has the phantom engine rather than the 16 cylinder... but aesthetically it looks extemely similar.

so your dealership told you that they have started speccing the cars? interesting. from what i understand only the dealerships themselves are speccing cars for their showrooms... and those cars are meant to come in towards august. if you something to the contrary, i would love to know!!! thanks in advance.

Definately a gorgeous car. Damn thing is huge though. I don't know if I would want to aim that thing around town...

I would replace the umbrella with a choice weapon though

The car will have the current phantom tail lights (becasue of US standards) and engine. its 10 inches shorter then the Phantom. The 101ex (the hard top) is the exact same car as the 100 but with hard top.

the fisrt ones will be coming in August and are limited in in colors and specs. In 08 you can do the bespoke work on it. reason being that they need to recoup the intial investment in the platform.

There will be 5 exterior colors for 07, about 3 interior colors.
08 will be alot more. The brushed hood andteak deck will also be an option.
Anyone who is getting one you must look into the bespoke program. you can do anything you want with the car! if you buy one of the lot i think that would be a waste of a car imo becasue there are so many things you can do to make the car one of a kind!

It's funny you mention it because about a month after my post the Dallas Business Journal had an article about RUF opening a car parking warehouse as well as local business men doing a luxury car storage country club in Dallas ....

i was in the neew azure and i was very dissapointed at the quality. it wasnt a 350k car.
the quality and feel of the rolls is much better. i do agree the the Azure is pretty but its an 11 year old look thats kind of dated imo
