The 2014 Bentley Continental GT isn’t petite, so it needs the robust power of its V8 and W12 engines to propel it from zero to 60 mph in less than five seconds and reach its 200-mph top speed (Speed models go even faster). While these speeds do rival some of the best sports cars in the world, the Continental is not necessarily about the pure pursuit of speed. Quiet as a mouse on the road, the Continental GT prefers to pamper its occupants rather than punish them with an overly firm ride, the lamentable hallmark of so many sports-oriented cars. The handling is adept but not razor sharp, the all-wheel drive provides excellent grip useful on both dry pavement and wet, and the ZF 8-speed automatic transmission is seamless and precise, especially in sport mode. From driveway to highway and back, the Continental GT for 2014 is a joy to drive.

NAIM AUDIONAIM is to British Audio what names like Macintosh and Bose are to the American market. Custom tailored just for the Bentley Continental GT, the sound is simply jaw-dropping and may be the one sound sweeter than that coming from beneath the Continental GT’s hood.INTERIOR FIT AND FINISHIf you want to see what’s so great about a hand-built coach, take one look inside the 2014 Bentley Continental GT. Every surface, knob and switch has a tactile feel to it you won’t find in lesser cars with plentiful plastic pieces, an attribute we wish more premium luxury models possessed.

If you've ever wondered what sets a $ 200,000 vehicle apart from a $ 20,000 vehicle, step inside a 2014 Bentley Continental GT. 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 coupe and convertible are tight for adults.

Some cars are described as having "presence," an essence that exceeds mere physical size. Bentley’s Continental GT for 2014 abounds in it. The Bentley Continental GT coupe and convertible are actually no longer than the average Honda Accord or Toyota Camry, yet their wide bodies, huge tires and low slung stance give them the appearance of being much more substantial. These two are the real lookers of the Bentley lineup with their muscular curves that run front to back, defined best in their exaggerated rear haunches where the sloping roof and sides intersect.

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). GT 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.

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 lamb's wool rugs. GT and GT Convertible models can be equipped with 21-inch aluminum-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 2014 Bentley Continental GTs, save the GT V8 and V8 S, comes from a twin-turbocharged W12 engine mated to 8-speed ZF automatic transmission. The twin-turbocharged V8 is a powerhouse in its own right, making 500 (521 in the S) horsepower and offering improved fuel economy compared with the 12-cylinder engines. All Bentley Continental GTs feature all-wheel drive, which enhances traction. The 8-speed transmission 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.2014 Bentley Continental GT V8 and GT V8 Convertible4.0-liter twin-turbocharged V8500 horsepower @ 6,000 rpm487 lb-ft of torque @ 1,700 rpmEPA city/high fuel economy: 15/24 mpg (coupe), 14/24 mpg (convertible)2014 Bentley Continental GT V8 S and GT V8 S Convertible521 horsepower @ 6,000 rpm502 lb-ft of torque @ 1,700 rpmEPA city/highway fuel economy: 15/24 mpg (coupe), 14/24 mpg (convertible)2014 Bentley Continental GT and GT Convertible6.0-liter twin-turbocharged W12567 horsepower @ 6,000 rpm516 lb-ft of torque @ 1,700 rpmEPA city/highway fuel economy: 13/20 mpg (coupe), 12/20 mpg (convertible)2014 Bentley Continental GT Speed and GT Speed Convertible6.0-liter twin-turbocharged W12626 horsepower @ 6,000 rpm605 lb-ft of torque @ 1,700 rpmEPA city/highway fuel economy: 13/20 mpg (coupe) 12/20 mpg (convertible)

Regardless of which 2014 Bentley Continental you choose, be prepared to write a sizable check. The least expensive model – the Continental GT V8 – has a Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) of just under $ 187,500. The GT V8 Convertible starts around $ 207,000. The higher-powered Speed versions add tens of thousands of dollars. Options can also add cubic dollars, with some packages costing as much as a new economy car. The most expensive trim is the GT Speed Convertible at just over $ 246,500. At these prices, the Bentley Continental is less expensive than the Rolls-Royce Wraith, which starts around $ 290,000, but higher than just about everything else in it class except some AMG performance editions of the Mercedes-Benz CL-Class. As such a niche vehicle, precise resale values are difficult to predict for the 2014 Bentley Continental GT.

Bentley Continental Overview and History

The definition of luxury may have nothing to do with the streets but, paradoxically, it can be seen roaming through some of the least expected places, rims glimmering, wood and chrome finished steel bulk rolling silently through concrete labyrinth passage ways. It's an automobile that goes great with yachts and French Riviera vacations as well as New Zealand wool pin stripe suits and finely designed porcelain buttons embedded in solid gold.

Bentley has been a provider of quality stand-out privileged social and financial statement-vehicles since 1919. Founded by Walter Owen Bentley (1888-1971), Bentley Motors has grown into a world leading car-maker and also a symbol of Great Britain, as well as sole provider of wheels for the Queen through the 2002 released State Limousine.

The company's founder had primarily been known for designing and making reliable rotary engines that were fitted on aircraft during World War I, before successfully entering the auto-world. Before becoming notorious with the Bentley BR1 aero-engine during the war, Bentley had been in partnership with his brother H.M., selling French D.F.P. cars. It was during those times that he thought of establishing his own car-making business.

Soon after Bentley Motors was formed in January, 1919, the company was "allowing" Walter Owen to exhibit a chassis with an engine replica at the London Motor Show. The design was a success and the orders poured in. However, the company was unable to carry the deliveries out in time, with the first cars being ready for shipping only in September 1921, one year later than initially estimated.

Although, it had a lot of fans and enjoyed great value on the UK market, the company suffered a fate similar to that of  Aston Martin, undergoing several ownership changes and financial trouble. Fortunately enough, its allies were constantly on the look-out and possessed vast riches that they used to keep Bentley on track.

Bentley was acquired by millionaire and 'Bentley Boy' enthusiast Wolf Barnato, who became the new owner of the company in 1925. Despite the steady cash flow that was used to stop Bentley Motors from sinking, the Great Depression wiped clean any desire for expensive automobiles, leaving Bentley poor and disoriented.

This time, help would come from giants from Rolls Royce, who bought the work shop in 1931. Thanks to the 'Bentley Boys', the marque managed to stay afloat and gained racing acclaim, with Barnato participating in the Le Train Bleu race (he drove in traffic from Cannes to Calais and finished first). Consequently, the model became known as the Blue Train Bentley. Moreover, further victories would be obtained by Bentley in the famous endurance race 24 hours of le Mans, the British carmaker emerging victorious for four consecutive times, between 1927 and 1930.

Until entering under the Rolls Royce tutelage, Bentley fitted a variety of engines on their cars: from the classic 3L and 4.5 Blower Bentley engine to the 6L or massive 8L mechanical heart in the 30's. Before parting ways with the Rolls Royce parent company in 1998 and moving to VW grounds, Bentley had greatly improved their offers and technological improvements, especially after becoming a separate car line again during the 80's. Models such as the type R, S and Continental represented only a small fraction of what would come in the following years. Later models included the beautiful Azure convertible, the Turbos Sport R and S models and the competitive Brooklands.

Starting with 1998, German carmaker VW Group took over as Bentley's parent company in a profitable partnership with BMW. The agreement between the two parts stated that VW would make both Bentley and Rolls Royce cars until 2002, when the rights to manufacture Rolls Royce vehicles would pass entirely to BMW. Until 2003, BMW was a constant supplier of engines for both car lines. Soon after BMW's withdrawal, the company launched a new model that would become even more popular than the Azure: the Continental GT. In fact, demands were so numerous that Bentley was reacquainted with the situation form the 20's, when it was unable to meet demands. The latest models from the British carmaker include the 2005 Continental Flying Spur saloon, the 2006 Azure convertible and it's Continental GT counterpart, and the 2008 Brooklands and GT Speed Coupe.

"Superb GT"
Amazing all wheel drive Grand Tourer, very fast, definitely a road king ! The W12 developed by VW / Audi, coupled with the bulletproof ZF 6HP26A makes this sports coupe a very reliable exotic.

"This is the best luxury car i have ever owned."
This model is one of the first batch of GTCs shipped to Florida for their introduction in 2007 They received numerous inspections at the factory in the UK befitting a dramatic and spectacular new model. Most of the shipment were in the colors considered the most outstanding, namely Silver Lake(light metallic blue) exterior with Saffron hide interior. This Car has the very comprehensive specification of these Show Models, plus the addition of 22inch diameter chrome/silver lake wheels. It has had the benefit of an average of less than 2200miles per year plus the enhancement of entry in Concours de Elegance events which entails continued attention both inside & outside. It is immaculate.

"4-door FLYING SPUR FLIES"
Bought it used. I have had it for one year and have put on about 8000 miles. Traded in a used Bentley I bought 20 years ago. This car is much different. The W-12 is super fast. Well-appointed. Huge back seat. Deceptive as it looks slow but is wicked fast. W-12. Twin Turbo.AWD Solid colors are nice, but two-tone colors on these cars make them look awesome. New they are out-of-reach , but used, very affordable. Maintenance? Find yourself a good independent mechanic that knows the cars (whether they are Bentley, Rolls-Royce, etc) These cars are built to last. Just do the oil changes when they are due, change tires,brakes, etc. When you buy a used car that will last you 20+ years, you come out way ahead.Read less

I have owned and still have a 2009 Kia amanti it is now 2024 I have 51000 miles on this car excellent handling in all weather except ice and deep snow very fast in traffic I think the handling is tight and responsive. My spouse has driven this on the interstate frequently and the first thing he did was get it up to 220 mph at this speed is floaty but under 80 mph just a pleasure to drive *****
