2017 Bentley New GT Speed
A blue body with red accents is a very
difficult theme to pull off no matter the car, yet Bentley went with that
brazen combo for the debut of its new 2017 model year GT Speed models presented
at a special event in New York City this week.
The four members of the updated
Continental line up are the GT Speed Coupe and Convertible in regular and Black
Edition trims, all of which get a 7 hp and 20 Nm bump for the 2017MY
at 633 hp at 840 Nm from the 6.0-liter twin-turbocharged W12
engine that propels the coupe from 0-100 km/h in 4.1
secs and on a top speed of 331 km/h.
If you go for the Black Edition models
that cost an additional US$ 12,935, you get contrast colors for the front
splitter, side skirts, mirror caps and rear diffuser in four different shades
named Hallmark, Beluga, St James’ Red and Cyber Yellow, as well as two-tone
interior leather.
US customers can order the 2017
Continental GT Speed now with prices starting from US$ 240,300, excluding delivery
and taxes, with deliveries beginning this summer.
