It might be a bit silly to criticize an insanely expensive Bentley coupe. After all, those aren’t exactly “rational purchases.” In an effort to keep relevant the what looks like the same car from 2003, Bentley decided to add more power, which is great! And then they ruined it with a stupid rear wing.
But I’m going to, anyway.
(Crewe, 3 September 2013) The appeal of the world’s most stylish, luxury grand tourer is enhanced with the introduction of the new, sporting Continental GT V8 S. Available as both a coupe and convertible, the new GT V8 S models bring added excitement to the Continental range with lowered and retuned sports suspension,…
Bentley's seen eights come and go; the 8-litre coach of 1930, the cloth-seated Eight "training Bentley" of the 1980s, the Le Mans-winning Speed 8 prototype of 2003. Two of those even had V8 engines, like the new Continental GT V8. Can the more-fuel-efficient octomill match the mighty W12? Let's find out.
When someone asks if you're a God, you say "YES!" When Bentley asks if you'd like to go lead the starting lap of the Nürburgring 24 in the CEO's Continental GT Supersports while it's being driven by former DTM champ Eric Van De Poele, you say "Hell YES!"
The 2011 Bentley Continental GT now offers a eco- and poorer-person friendly 4.0-liter V8 as an option. The rest of us will order a 567-hp, 516 lb-ft 6.0-liter twin-turbo W12. Now to paint it pink and cover it with rhinestones.
Dartz calls it their newest opulence the Continental GT SS, not for "Super Sport," but for "snake skin." That's because the car's ensconced in an all-white faux snake skin vinyl wrap. Because nothin' says classy like vinyl snake skin.
The Bentley Continental GT is getting long in the tooth, no longer the must-have accessory of the pocket-dog and power-broker set. Accordingly, a brand new supercar will debut on September 6th. Here's a sneak peek.
The term "suitcase car" was somehow lost in translation with the "Bentley Suitcase Croco." It's a Bentley Continental GT covered in African buffalo leather embossed and painted to look like crocodile skin. Oh Russia, you so crazy!
Chrysler isn't the only one continuing an aging model with lame special editions. They're just not charging $10,000 like Bentley is doing with their Series 51 Continental GT, GTC and GTC Speed.
We're always about to buy a yacht when something stops us. Thankfully, the folks at Pearl Motor Yachts get it. Buy a $1.4 million Pearl 60 and get a free Bentley Continental GT. Capitalism is still alive, haters. [PMY]
Paris Hilton treats herself to a grotesque Christmas present by slathering a Continental GT in pink livery and oversized wheels courtesy of West Coast Customs. Follow us into the gaping maw of obsessive opulence.
Jose Luis Macias was driving through Los Angeles last Friday in his Bentley Continental GT when someone fired multiple bullets into the car, killing him and shutting down Highway 101. The motive remains a mystery.
This Bentley Continental GT is either done up in a jungle camo paint scheme or a new interpretation of the RISK game board. Regardless, it certain to draw far more attention than its paint would suggest, blending into the cityscape about as well as if it were fluorescent orange. Mottled shades of gray might have been…
Refreshed for the autumn season, this is the latest iteration of the polarizing ASI-tuned Bentley Continental GTR. Similar to the car Toyo will be showing off at SEMA, the GTR is an 800 HP monster with intimidatingly tasteless styling to match. The only thing we want this for is to lovingly crash it into a field.

We've always had a love/hate relationship with the Bentley Continental GT. On the one hand, it's a staggeringly powerful freight train of a car that will do everything but powder your behind (and not catch on fire). On the other hand, it just doesn't have the character of a Bentley; it seems more noveau riche than…
Having had its way with Italian cars, Zagato's coachworks business returned its attentions to a British-German hooligan — the Bentley Continental GT. (Remember the Zagato Aston DB7? Sure you do.) What they came up with is the two-tone Bentley GTZ Zagato we first showed you last week. As is their wont, Zagato made the…
The guys at Dubspeed Driven skipped the press intro for the Bentley Continental GT Speed in Spain, opting instead for posing as one of the super-rich customers in the market for a luxury GT. We're not sure what's funnier, the gigantic winged "B" ice sculpture, the spokesmodel or the fact that they give people the…
It's the first bentley to hit 200 miles per hour (202 mph, to be exact) right off the shelf. It's a pretty big shelf, though, because the Bentley Speed GT is a bruiser of a car. It packs a more-than-sufficient 600 horses lolling beneath its bonnet, also making it the most powerful production Bentley ever built. The…
