Flying Spur Mansory Continental Flying Spur.

[Yperion]

The Germans love tuning kits even on the most exclusive cars. The latest victim of their enthusiasm is the Bentley Continental Flying Spur. German firm Mansory has launched a range of performance and body modifications for the luxury sedan.

These include a power boost for the car's 6.0-liter twin turbocharged W12 engine, which boosts output by 80 horsepower to 630 hp, giving the luxury liner a top speed of around 200 mph. An optional exhaust system will give it a considerably sportier sound, too.

There's also an uprated brake setup to cope with the extra performance, and cosmetic enhancements to differentiate Mansory's Flying Spur from the standard model. And "differentiate" is the polite word for it: buyers can add bespoke wheels, revised front and rear spoilers with spotlights mounted in the fender, and side skirts.

In the third picture one set of LEDs aren't working... Well isn't that a sign of things to come.

Don't doubt it cause that's what's happening.

Yeah, lets not be mistaken here, the Flying Spur is most certainly one of the best-made vehicles in the world - these are official Mansory photographs...I very much doubt they would publish photographs that showed there was any kind of problem with the lights.

When I look at these photographs of the FS - it reminds me greatly of the Maybach 57.

As much as I would like to hate this car, I think it looks good in these pictures. The rims though are a tad too flashy for me.

There was a CGT in traffic today and the brake lights are only the upper two - I imagine the lower two are night lights (ie when lights are turned on). I'd hazzard a guess that what's on here is a rear foglight? It's certainly much brighter than the upper two.


Anyhow, looking great, very tasteful mods

In Australia? Damn!

Anyway, this bodykit is just plain cheezy. Nope, not the path you want to take with such an elegant and serene design like the Flying Spur.

Those vertical quad-exhausts are just plain silly.

looks very elegant in black. The rims suit it, but they would look better if they were not crome. As for the tailpipes, not good looking...

Yes, just to clarify, a Continental GT, not the Porsche variety More's the pity...

I've seen plenty of them around here actually, it's a pretty well-to-do area and I think the CGT's the car to be seen in if you've got plenty of money....

Oh. I was thinking the Carrera GT. Damn you Germaniac for getting me needlessly excited!

The Arnage is very good value for money though..when compared to the Arnage, Maybach, or Phantom. Contrary to popular opinion, even people with a lot of money know a bargain when they see one - of course I'm not suggesting the Flying Spur is a bargain...but relatively speaking, it is very well priced - and selling very well.

I hate Mansory's work, they seem to turn a nice car into something that looks awful!

They even make a Aston Martin ugly!

I know but I can't stand the wafting Brick, but you know how I feel about the Arnage. I'd take an Arnage over anything in the category whether it be Maybach or Rolls.
