2004 Bentley Continental GT
2004 Bentley Continental GT  |  

Continental GT

An all-new model engineered through the brand's Volkswagen/Audi owners is on the way. The big coupe will be powered by a 552-hp, twin-turbo W-12 engine (with the design derivative of the W-8 used in the VW Passat), a six-speed automatic transmission, and all-wheel drive. The grand-touring coupe has seating for four, and will offer a very traditional interior that buyers of the English make are accustomed to, with top-notch leather and wood trims. The Continental GT will arrive to these shores next spring.

A British jewel with striking facets.

 

Arnage

Engineered and designed by "the old" British-owned Bentley, the Arnage is every bit a traditional British ultra-luxury sedan, but with surprising levels of performance. A twin-turbo pushrod 6.75-liter V-8 engine powers the Arnage T, making 400 hp in the R and RL versions and an impressive 450 hp in the Arnage T, though the sedan isn't as fast as you might think since it weighs nearly 6000 pounds. Still, top speed approaches 170 mph, with the T able to hustle to 60 mph before six seconds elapse. The Arnage comes with - or can be ordered with - pretty much every comfort feature imaginable. And if you need to know how much it costs, it's probably out of your playing field.
