2003-11 Bentley Continental GT












The Bentley Continental GT is one of my favorite vehicles to wear the Flying B badge. Shown above are photos I have taken of the first generation, which was produced from 2003 to 2011. The sole engine option is a 6.0-liter W12 with around 560 horses and 510 lb-ft of torque. Both generations of the Bentley Continental GT look really nice. However, they both weigh over two tons. Only the Speed and Supersport variants of this generation combine performance and luxury very well; luxury outweighs performance in the standard model. This was also one of the first Bentley products released under Volkswagen ownership. My favorites in this compilation are the second one (in gray) and the fifth one (in black, completely stock on the outside). The third one (in black) looks a little too busy in the front. The rest of them look decent. Like the Rolls-Royce Phantom, the Continental GT is also a favorite among rappers. Overall, the Bentley Continental GT is a classy automobile; however, I would opt for the new Mercedes-Benz S-Class coupe over either generation of this car.
