perfect is by definition timeless.
obsolete comes and goes.
15 years ago, rear wheel drive was considdered by many to be obsolete.
continental T is set to be replaced by a VW worked continental like the GT. That's really too bad, because the continental T is a fantastic car with a ton of sport, style, and elegance, and the GT is shamu. The nice cost saving, platform sharing measure of using the phaeton platform was a mistake (platfrom sharing and cost cutting are features that don't belong in a bentley). Having them use a little A8 suspension and aluminum space frame technology could have made an incredible car, but we can see where VW's priorities are. A huge turbo engine can't fix all problems, they have to learn that.
