Bentley Continental GT

The Bentley Continental GT has a 6 Litre W12 engine with twin turbochargers which develops 552 hp at 6100 RPM and 650 Nm of torque at 1600 RPM. Never before had a 12 cylinder engine been employed on a Bentley car. Acceleration from 0-60 mph takes 4.7 seconds (0 to 100 km/h in 4.8 s), the top speed is 198 mph (312 km/h). It has all-wheel drive, the first Bentley to do so, and a six speed automatic transmission with steering wheel mounted gearshift paddles for instant override. The engine and air suspension are manufactured by Bentley, but are loosely based on owner Volkswagen's flagship car the Phaeton.

The Continental GT features the largest brake disc on any production car at 405 mm (16 inches) in front. The rear disc measures 335 mm (13 inches).

In Singapore, this car would cost around SGD$700k - SGD$800k inclusive of COE which is a really mind-numbing sum of money to be paying for a car that only has two doors. I can get 2 nos Mercedes S350 or maybe a nice Mercedes CLS 55 AMG. or maybe even 10 Hyundai Sonata in a different color each. Or maybe 5 Nissan 350Z Roadster!!!

Ja neh!!!
