The Bentley
This is one fantastic car. It's fast, handles well, has great looks, and has a Bently badge which makes it that much better. I like to drive with the paddle shifters, tap the left one to downshift an the turbos propel you to great speed within seconds an lets you hit very high speeds, which doesn't take very long. Its steering accuracy is superb at all speeds which makes the car feel lighter than it is. It wieghs about 5,200 pounds, but the steering makes it feel like its a mere 2,100 pound Miata. The brakes never fade or give up, I went from around 80 to 0 mph with in a few seconds to avoid rear ending a car in heavy LA traffic, most cars would have squeky, faded brakes, this thing never gives up. I love it!
Nothing Else Quite Like It
Having been the owner of Merdedes, BMWs, Porsches, and quite a few others, the Bentley Continental GT is far superior in all aspects. Its power can only be understood by being in the driver's seat. This car is ell worth the dollars. I give applause to the Bentley design team.

Next Time Around Will Be Ferrari!
The interior of the Bentley Continental GT is pretty, but it has no headroom even without a sunroof. This car also has poor overall handling. The engine is strong off the line and above 70 mph. Its braking is no better than a Lincoln Navigator's. The Continental GT is just too heavy. If you are over 6 feet tall, forget about comfort. Its quality has not met my expections, especially considering the fact that I had to wait a year for my ordered car to come in. This is a good car, it's but far from great. It truly does nothing great.
Good looks can be deceiving
Beautiful car that turns heads. Cost of ownership is very expensive. I have spent over $70,000.00 since I bought the car new in 2005. The repair cost doesn't count the items that needed repaired that were under warranty. This is my first and last Bentley GT

THIS IS IT!
The 2005 Bentley Continental GT has outstanding build quality. Other manufacturers now need to play catch up. Bentley has been able to maintain the "Bentley image" with help from the Volkswagen/Audi infusion of capital. This car's engine wants to run, with tons of hp and torque. The leather inside is of the finest quality. This model's limited production should keep it a classic. Except for the twin turbo charges, i believe W.O. Bentley himself would have approved of this car. It has power, power, and more power in one really slick package.
