http://www.morriesluxuryauto.com | Bentley unveiled the Continental GT and GTC V8 at the 2012 Detroit Auto Show and now it is finally available for purchase. The heritage of Bentley dates back to the early 1900s and while the V8 is nothing new for Bentley, this particular engine is something special. With the ability to travel 500 miles on one tank of gas, having 500HP and 487 ft/lb of torque, all combined with a close-ratio 8-speed automatic transmission which equates to a 4.6 second 0-60 on to a top speed of 188mph. Besides the main component, the engine, other differences from the W12 GT and GTC models include the black mesh grille surrounded by chrome frame, three air intakes to the lower fascia, Bentley 'B' emblems surrounded by Red, figure-8 design to exhaust tips, as well as the option to have two-tone seats for the interior. All this, plus the 40% increase in fuel efficiency and dynamic engine management system allowing for only 4 cyclinders to be used during light loads make this Bentley a great choice for gorgeous, yet efficient vehicles.
