2013 Bentley Continental Used Price Estimates

All 2013 Bentley Continental models have the power to blast their considerable mass from 0 to 60 mph in the 4-second range and hit top speeds of nearly 200 mph or, in the case of Speed models, beyond. These are sports-car figures, but Continentals are not necessarily sports cars. A hushed, comfortable ride takes priority over racecar-like agility. Driving a Continental is meant to be an experience in elegant motoring. These cars just happen to also have the means to blow past lesser cars – which is most every car – when duty calls. The Continental’s all-wheel-drive system provides excellent grip in slippery conditions, and the newer 8-speed ZF automatic transmission is smooth, especially in sport mode. On open roads, the 2013 Bentley Continental is bliss. Parking lots are another matter, especially for the coupe models and convertibles with the top raised. These cars’ beautifully sloped roofs compromise rear visibility, which can make backing up your $ 200,000 vehicle dicey. Spend extra and get the rearview camera.

NAIM AUDIOUnless you're an audiophile, Naim may not be a familiar name to you. After hearing what this British audio brand serves up in its components tailored for Bentley vehicles, you'll never forget it. These available ultra-premium sound systems turn the cabin into an auditorium for musical bliss.INTERIOR FIT AND FINISHEvery knob, every surface and, well, just about everything you come into contact with in a Bentley Continental speaks a tactile language all its own. It's a language of nobility and opulence. For proof, nothing more is needed than a press of the sturdy metal ventilation buttons.

If you've ever wondered what sets a $ 200,000 vehicle apart from a $ 20,000 vehicle, step inside a 2013 Bentley Continental. The fit and finish are nearly without peer. The interior is leather, of course. But it's not just any leather. Only the finest, most premium and most blemish-free hides are selected. Metal and wood abound. Everything breathes quality, from the Breitling analog clock in the center stack to the diamond-pattern hide on the interior door panels. The two rear seats in the GT and GTC are tight for adults. The Flying Spur's bench offers more room and heating/massaging function for the outer seats, just like those in front, and can be configured with two individual seats.

Some cars are described as having "presence," an essence that exceeds mere physical size. The 2013 Bentley Continental abounds in it. Even the Bentley GT coupe and GTC convertible, at less than 190 inches in length – slightly shorter than a Honda Accord sedan – possess this trait. These two are the real lookers of the Continental lineup with their muscular curves that run front to back, defined best in their exaggerated rear haunches where the sloping roof and sides intersect. The Flying Spur sedan shares the big quad headlights up front but is statelier and much longer overall. At over 208 inches in length, this is not a small car by any means.

Needless to say, every Bentley is exceedingly well equipped. Some of the more prominent features include a high-resolution touchscreen command center with navigation, massive 20-inch wheels, bi-xenon projector headlights, an 8-speaker sound system, and a power trunk (or "boot," as it's called across the Pond). GTC convertibles have a power-operated 4-layer insulated roof. Speed models have a more powerful version of Bentley's already-potent 12-cylinder engine. Though parking sensors are standard, surprisingly, a rear-view camera is not. That’s a shame on a car costing as much as a house, and is a feature highly advised especially on 2-door models with their compromised rear visibility.

Aside from the much-advised rearview camera, other options of note include the premium Naim audio system, an iPod interface, heated steering wheel, radar-based adaptive cruise control, carbon-ceramic brakes, and lambswool rugs. GT and GTC models can be equipped with 21-inch alloy wheels. We're quite fond of the electronically adjustable neck warmer in the convertible models, perfect for those cool nights when you want to cruise top down under starry skies.

Power for all 2013 Bentley Continentals, save the GT V8 and GTC V8, comes from a twin-turbocharged W12 engine mated to either a 6-speed or 8-speed ZF automatic transmission. The twin-turbocharged V8 is a powerhouse in its own right, making 500 horsepower and offering improved fuel economy compared with the 12-cylinder engines. All Bentley Continentals feature all-wheel drive, which enhances traction. The 8-speed transmission found in the fresher GT and GTC models helps fuel economy, but every model except the V8 Continental GT coupe is still subject to a gas guzzler tax. The Continental is also E85-compatible.2013 Bentley Continental GT and GTC V84.0-liter twin-turbocharged V8500 horsepower @ 6,000 rpm487 lb-ft of torque @ 1,700 rpmEPA city/high fuel economy: 15/24 mpg (GT), 14/24 mpg (GTC)2013 Bentley Continental GT and GTC6.0-liter twin-turbocharged W12567 horsepower @ 6,000 rpm516 lb-ft of torque @ 1,700 rpmEPA city/highway fuel economy: 13/20 mpg (GT), 12/20 mpg (GTC)2013 Bentley Continental GT Speed and GTC Speed6.0-liter twin-turbocharged W12616 horsepower @ 6,000 rpm590 lb-ft of torque @ 1,700 rpmEPA city/highway fuel economy: 13/20 mpg (GT) 12/20 mpg (GTC)2013 Bentley Continental Flying Spur 6.0-liter twin-turbocharged W12552 horsepower @ 6,100 rpm479 lb-ft of torque @ 1,600-6,100 rpmEPA city/highway fuel economy: 11/19 mpg 2013 Bentley Continental Flying Spur Speed6.0-liter twin-turbocharged W12600 horsepower @ 6,000 rpm553 lb-ft of torque @ 1,700-5,600 rpmEPA city/highway fuel economy: 10/17 mpg

Regardless of which 2013 Bentley Continental you choose, be prepared to write a sizable check. The least expensive model in the 2013 Continental line – the GT V8 – has a Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) of just under $ 177,000. The GTC V8 convertible starts at over $ 194,000, and the Flying Spur sedan at around $ 187,000. The higher-powered Speed version of each adds tens of thousands of dollars. Options can also easily add tens of thousands of dollars, with some single packages costing as much as a new economy car. At these prices the Bentley Continental is less expensive than the Rolls-Royce Ghost, which starts around $ 260,000, but higher than just about everything else in it class except some AMG performance editions of the Mercedes-Benz CL-Class and S-Class models. Normally we'd suggest you take a hard look at the Fair Purchase Price before buying, but we doubt many buyers will be haggling when it comes to their Continental. As such a niche vehicle, precise resale values are difficult to predict for the 2013 Bentley Continental.
