Paris 2012: Bentley Continental GT Speed 2012

The most important scoop in Paris, for Bentley is the race version of the Continental GT, the GT3. Another Bentley, which also deserves some attention is the Continental GT Speed. We already saw it in Goodwood and Bentley shows their most powerful Continental GT again in Paris. With more than 600 bhp it is a lot of fun to drive this Speed version.

On the outside we see a slightly more sporty front bumper, a big diffuser on the back of the car and the twenty inch wheels tell everyone that this is a brutal version of the Continental GT. Thanks to a new exhaust system you can definitely hear that the W12 is more powerful. The sound is way louder. Where the old Continental GT had ‘only’ 610 bhp, the new version has even 625 bhp. Only five bhp less than the Continental Supersports. The car has 800 Nm of torque and this makes you sprint to 100 km/h in just 4.2 seconds. The car has a top speed of 329 km/h and this is even faster as a Ferrari F430 or a Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4! We can’t wait until the first copy is spotted!
