Overview & Reviews
Bentley revises the suspension and steering for the 2008 Continental GT coupe in order to improve ride and steering feel. Changes to the suspension and cooling system also result in a reduction of 77 pounds from the curb weight. The trip computer, Bluetooth interface and Breitling clock are revised for 2008 as well, while satellite radio becomes standard equipment. New optional features include a rearview camera, a three-spoke sport steering wheel and carbon ceramic brakes. There are also minor exterior changes.
- First-class interior accommodations, useful high-tech controls and features, all-wheel-drive confidence, wildly powerful 12-cylinder engine, highly customizable.
- Bulky curb weight, not as engaging as some other high-end GT cars.

Best Car I have EVER owned - 2008 Bentley Continental GT
By pb - October 3 - 7:33 amTraded my 07 maserati QP for a new 2008 GT, the car is absolutely amazing, insane amounts of power and torque can be driven like a limo or spanked like a true sports car. The interior is the best I have ever seen, bluetooth works fine, back up camera is a great help, ride is silky smooth and in my opinion this is the sexiest car on the market today (with a 599 a close second). I have not yet driven the car in winter conditions, but the 7000 miles I have driven over the past 6 months have been most enjoyable...

Car of Cars - 2008 Bentley Continental GT
By jordegcam - April 15 - 12:16 amTraded in my 2006 Maserati Gransport for a 2008 Black Bentley Continental GT Coupe. Wow! The styling is all at once beautiful, sporty, elegant, and eye-catching. While I miss the throaty roar of the Massy, the elegance and power of this Black Beauty is enthralling. The creature comforts, the interior, the modern features are beyond compare. This has to be the worlds best car. The Bluetooth feature apparently has been improved, my iPhone works well with it seamlessly. The drive is comfortable, yet very powerful. With a 0 to 60 of 4.6 seconds and 552 horsepower, this is a far better buy than a Ferrari Scaglietti, in my opinion. No regrets so far after 5 days!
