    Bentley GT

    Any idea when the new Bentley GT is due to be released? Spyshots? I heard it would come out in 2018 and is based on the speed 6 concept.

    I ask because then I could pick up a hugely depreciated 2017 W12

    wink

    Here is the new Bentley Continental GT.

    Gorgeous inside and out. Finally they got rid of the Mustang interior, aka twin binnacle design.

    Now if only they would get rid of the wood trim..........

    Re: Bentley GT

    Damnit. I had really high hopes for this car. Much improved, but it's a real let down that they went with the Porsche button-clusterfuck center console and generic design. The concept interior blew this one out of the water and it was actually very feasible too. They took the nice wrap-around dash idea and made it a generic flat dash too :/

    Re: Bentley GT

    Surprised the weight loss isn't more. Interior looks too Porsche like if you ask me. Exterior is a nice step forward.

    Re: Bentley GT

    The GT4 style front bumper has now reached everywhere in the company from the 911 Tuebo, to VW Beatle, and now this. :p

    Will no doubt be an impressive car.  Interior does seem like a Panamera's in design.  Too German perhaps. 


    Re: Bentley GT

    this is so beautiful car.......and what about the "toblerone" panel...I love it....

    Re: Bentley GT

    Wowww so nice, true the interior is really close to the panamera design, loosing some of the special character but it is beautifully made.  Not sure about the rear lights the rest for me is great.


    Re: Bentley GT

    The new Conti GT is based off the MSB platform, same as the Panamera, so in a way, it is the new  '928' smiley

    I'm pretty sure you would be able to order one without it, replacing wood with CF or machined or brushed aluminum.

    The release says "virtually unlimited customization".


    Re: Bentley GT

    the creases on the rear flanks are very sharp ..

    an elegant update of the previous Conti; more athletic but just as imposing and powerful


    Re: Bentley GT

    Nice looking car. To bad that the prerequisite to owning one is having white hair, white belt and white shoes.

    Re: Bentley GT

    This is a much better looking the the outgoing one, nice job. Interior is on a whole other level vs the Panamera.

    don't forget white socks


    Re: Bentley GT

    I'm sure its a nice place to be, but the contrasting square quilting on the seat bottoms, diamond quilting on the seat backs and ravioli quilting on the doors would bug me.

    Also, the joker in me would want the Bentley exclusive department to match the rotating dash display to a rotating license plate holder.  Purely so that when in states that didn't require one I could have as much bling up front as possible of course.

    Perhaps a slightly different image in the UK than the US (although I recall white anything was the exception in the US when it first launched?)

    No, Spa Francorchamps - any country would be proud to claim that  Smiley

    BTW, I tried really hard to find Belgian Waffles in Belgium in 2015 and had no luck.  Seems they are more myth than fact (or I didn't know where to look).  Although it was easy to find delicious "French" fries in abundance Smiley

    Never really understood why they call our famous frites 'french frites' mail

    (have we been hijacked cheeky)

    my late father,being a rally pilot, also used to drive a lot on the Spa circuit. Great stories. 

    Btw, our 'French' government paid an awful lot of money to have F1 there...

     


    Re: Bentley GT

    Regarding the waffles, you can find them in any tearoom yes

    Forbes. That is for the Arnage T. The Conti is entry level.

    Very helpful clarification!

    It is to qualify for ladies undies not the car. You can be dirt poor and everyone thinks you have 30 million.

    I did it, got a 2016 W12 Mulliner for about half the price as the new model
