Cruising Never Looked So Good


Germany-based luxury automotive manufacturer Bentley has done it again. Recently announced, the new Bentley Continental GTC is a step above its predecessor, which debuted in 2006. Advanced manufacturing techniques and not to mention Bentley’s illustrious design and engineering teams have made the Continental GTC (II) something to look at (and admire).

From Southern California’s Sunset Boulevard to Austin’s hill country and Germany’s autobahn, the Bentley Continental GTC fits right in with its powerful 6.0L, V12 engine with FlexFuel capability and a new QuickShift transmission. The four-seat luxury convertible even comes with a dynamic selection of 17 standard leather colors with six color split combinations and a choice between seven veneers. What a better way to add your own personal touch to luxury?

“When Bentley first announced the updated Continental GTC, we knew it would stand out among luxury convertibles,” noted Sonny Morgan, the principal dealer at John Eagle European’s Bentley of Austin. “From the aerodynamic lines of the car to the advanced technology, it’s hard to find a better European luxury car.”

And the best part about the vehicle isn’t just the new touch screen 30GB “infortainment” system with advanced satellite navigation and Google Map compatibility, or the sensuous lines and sharp look that lets the Continental GTC cut the air like a knife - it is the comfort and smoothness of the ride at even the sharpest corners. (Not to mention the Bentley-designed Neck Warmer to allow for roof-down motoring at any temperature!)

Chairman and chief executive of Bentley Motors, Wolfgang Dürheimer said:

“The GTC has always been the most emotional model in the Continental range and a showcase for Bentley design. With its tailored soft top, the GTC is a pure British convertible true to those classic Bentleys of the past. However, the technology, performance and overall design excellence invested in this model means that we are now writing a new chapter for the Bentley convertible driver.”
