I have a friend looking for a Continental Flying Spur as a DD. What should he be prepared for?

Me in a Subaru accidentally hitting it in the parking garage.

my cousin uses his FS as his daily. his only real complaint was that with his aftermarket 20s he had multiple flats and bent rims. The heavyass car and horrible downtown LA roads don't mix well on big wheels and thinner tires. gas mileage isn't great either, but you already knew that.

Thanks for the input.

Had one back in 2005. Hopefully they have improved since then. Within 2200 miles from new I had 2 AC condensers, 2 navigation units and a constant shimmy in the steering wheel. Sold it with 2600 miles on it...

Wow. Sounds like you had a little lemon scent. Thanks for the info.

Find a 5-seater / avoid the - otherwise expensive - 4-seat option due to resale and practicality.
The back-up camera is a very useful option - but rare on older MY.
