Bentley Continental GT
The Flying Spur has 6-litre, 12-cylinder engine, configured in a W formation. Unlike a conventional 12 cylinder engine with two banks of 6 (V-12), the Continental’s 6-litre engine is configured in four banks of 3 cylinders each (W-12). This shortens the W-12 engine's length considerably, compared to a 2 bank configuration. The W-12 produces 552 bhp (412 kW), accelarates from 0-60 mph in 4.9 seconds, and propels the Flying Spur top speed of 194 mph(312 km/h).
One notable aspect of the Continental Flying Spur is its grille. Made to look like traditional chromed brass mesh, it is a metal-covered plastic-core. This was fitted as a safety feature; it is designed to break apart upon impact with a pedestrian.
Continental GT convertible, also known as the Flying Spur, was first made in 2003, and is still available today. Its 6-litre, 12 cylinder engine produces a massive 552 bhp that can accelerate the car from 0-60 mph in just 4.9 seconds, a massive feat considering the general size and weight of the Continental GT is above average. Further variations of the Continental GT, like the Continental GTC, and the GT Supersports, would also have convertible versions, inheriting the original Continental GT’s affinity with large, powerful engines, luxurious interiors, and very sophisticated, yet sporty, designs. The Bentley GT convertible cars are some of the most popular high-end luxury convertibles today
