2012 Bentley Continental Gt Awd on 2040-cars
Brooklyn, New York, United States
|
This Continental GT has everything you’d expect from a
Bentley but comes in a one of a kind package. The solid Beluga exterior has
been converted from the usually mild looks of the GT into a more aggressive
sports car with the use of a limited edition MansorY wide-body styling package.
The combination of beautiful craftsmanship, and the presence of the exposed
carbon fiber on the MansorY package, give this car a unique high-end look. To
further add to the uniqueness of this car’s exterior, a custom set of one-off
22 inch Forgiato wheels have replaced the factory 20 inch wheels to compliment
the new Manory Body Styling Package.
This is all finished off with an upgrade in brakes with the addition of
a Brembo brake kit. Under the vented carbon fiber hood sits the heart of this
machine. A 6 liter twin turbocharged W12 engine producing 567 horsepower
and 516 foot-pounds of torque. All that power, in combination with the 6 speed
quickshift transmission, is capable or propelling the Bentley upwards of 200mph
with little hesitation. When you step into this Continental GT, the first thing that
stands out is the crimson-like color of the Hotspur leather interior. This
already eye-catching interior is brought up a notch with the addition of
embroidered Bentley insignias on the headrests, drilled alloy foot pedals and
the piano black trim; which are all part of the Mulliner Driving Specification
package this car is equipped with. Other additions to the cabin are the ‘Naim
for Bentley’ premium audio system, contrast stitching, duo-tone trimmed
steering wheel, deep pile carpet mats and front seats with ventilation and
massage function. All this is enough to give even the most demanding of pilots
the perfect driving experience before they even put their foot on the pedal. Upgrades 1.
Mansory Body Styling Package $50K 2.
Brembo Break Package $10K 3.
Forgiato Custom made/painted Wheels $10K The car will be sold with both the factory and aftermarket
wheel and tire packages to provide the option of going factory and winter
driving. The vehicle is also standardly equipped with all wheel
drive. More about the vehicle by clicking here |

New Bentley Supersports coming in 2014
Wed, 03 Apr 2013A report in Autocar says the next Bentley Continental Supersports will be ready for retail duty in 2014. If true, the coupe is meant to follow the same formula as the first generation, which means weight loss, honed reflexes and "improving braking power," that last one an eyebrow raiser because the Continental series already has some of the largest diameter brakes available on a production car.
A vulgar gain in horsepower isn't planned, however; the Supersports was never primarily about pure grunt, but rather being more connected to the grunt the Continental had. The previous Supersports (Bentley no longer offers it) put out 621 horsepower, but it's said that the coming model will move up to 650 hp, and that would put healthy distance between it and the 616-hp Continental GT Speed.
The Supersports would take a place at the head of the Continental line-up, but be briefly usurped there by a road-going version of the Continental GT3 race car if that comes to fruition. But whereas the street-legal GT3 car would be limited production, the new Supersports would be a series offering.
First Bentley SUV teased in video short
Tue, 27 May 2014The Bentley SUV is coming and there's not a thing we can do to stop it. The latest indication that the wing-badged behemoth is on the way is this teaser video, which (thankfully?) doesn't show us a whole lot of the new vehicle, aside from its Continental GT-inspired headlights and its Mulsanne-inspired grille. Of course, we've seen this fascia before.
Via Bentley's associated press release, we now know that the SUV will head into production in 2016 with a range of engines that will expand to include a plug-in hybrid in 2017.
There are a few other details, such as the large, five-spoke wheels and side grilles. Whatever the new SUV is called, it should be wearing Continental-esque taillights and a rather aggressive rake to the roof behind the rear doors. That said, none of the other styling clues are as clear as our look at the SUV's face.
VW makes $23K on every Porsche sold, more than Bentley or Lamborghini
Fri, 14 Mar 2014It's a good time to be in the luxury car business. In Volkswagen Group's financial report for the 2013 fiscal year, it is revealed that that Porsche enjoyed an operating margin of 18 percent. That means the Stuttgart brand made on average about $23,200 per car sold, according to BusinessWeek. Bentley wasn't far behind, and Audi (which was combined with Lamborghini) posted a 10.1 percent margin. This compares to only around 2.9 percent for the Volkswagen brand.
"Luxury brands are on fire," said Dave Sullivan, an industry analyst at AutoPacific. He said that the average profit margin is between six and eight percent. Brands like Porsche and Bentley have the benefit of competing in rarefied markets. Buyers looking at one their vehicles have fewer models to shop against and don't care as much about price. They can also charge more for options, which further boosts income, according to BusinessWeek.
In a way, we should be more impressed by the continued success from Audi. Its models generally have direct competitors in every segment from the other premium automakers. Plus, their buyers aren't the captains of industry who are shopping for a Bentley. Still, the Four Rings is leading rivals in sales so far this year.
