2012 Bentley Continental GT

2012 BENTLEY CONTINENTAL GT COUPE. #SCBFR7ZA8CC071313.

(Stock #4331). When the Bentley GT was introduced in 2005, it caught the motoring world by storm. Very fast, very beautiful, very luxurious and amazingly drivable, it was a grand touring car that really had no equal. In 2012, this incredible car received some notable updates by Bentley. It was a fabulously quick car and became a bit quicker with its 12 cylinder (W-12) twin turbo engine receiving a bit of a power increase to 567 horsepower and 516 foot pounds of torque. It had an excellent automatic gearbox that was replaced by a new 6-speed unit which cut shift times by 50%. These improvements, along with a 40-60, bias to rear, all-wheel drive system, resulted in a 0-60 mph acceleration time of 3.9 seconds, a ¼ mile acceleration time of 12.8 seconds at a speed of 111 mph and a top speed of 207 mph. Huge ABS brakes with brake assist provide a 60-0 stopping distance of just 108’. Stability Control and traction control further complement the handling capabilities of this fabulous car along with optional 21” chrome alloy wheels which are fitted with new 21” Pirelli “P-Zero” high speed radial tires. The 2012 models also saw a mild interior redesign with more comfortable seats covered with double-stitched premium leather and much more convenient cup holders. Luxury accessories abound, including a charming Breitling clock, heated outside rear-view mirrors, LED running lights (also new in 2012), auto Xenon headlamps, front and rear parking sensors, power boot lid, heated 1-way power seats with memory and 4-way lumbar support, power tilt/telescopic steering wheel, dual-zone heat and air conditioning, an 8-speaker audio system with CD player, touchscreen infotainment system with an 8” high-resolution screen, Satellite radio, 15GB music storage and iPod interface and a navigation system with Google Maps capability and real-time traffic. Our car has spent most of its life in Florida and has come to us from a serious local collector who now is spending most of his time in New York City and does not have a need for an extra car. The car is finished in exquisite Dark Sapphire Pearl with sumptuous double-stitched Newmarket Tan leather and amazing polished walnut facia and interior trim. Condition is, without exaggeration, comparable to new and the car must be seen and driven to be appreciated. 11,213 miles. SOLD!
