Continental GT [Official] Bentley Continental GT (Third generation, 2018-

[wallstbear]

It's also a considerably smaller car than the S coupe. Plus the exclusivity point, so I'd argue the DB11 and CGT are more proper competitors. That said, I think the CGT is taking some new design cues from other brands (including none other than Aston Martin), so I'd give the Aston a slight edge. Also DB11 is slightly sportier.

You've got a good point, but DB11 and CGT have almost the same interior and exterior dimensions, power output, and are priced the same (judging by the outgoing CGT).

The Wraith is considerably larger and more expensive. And only the overpriced S65 coupé compares in price to the DB11/CGT. Some will say a MB doesn't have the same exclusivity.

Edit: A fully loaded S63 comes close to the MSRP of a CGT V8.

I dont think CGT is more exclusive than S class coupe. Both are selling in similar numbers

The great unwashed will see it as more exclusive, more expensive and the owner wealthier than the owner of an S class coupe.

 

[slicknick]

Aren't more natural competitors for this car, the S class coupé and Ghost coupé?

Well, the DB9 was always compared to the previous generation Continental GT

This new gen CGT is the same length as a E-class coupe but weight is even more than an S65 AMG coupe by 65kg. It's still a heavy beast.

Just add some more 22' rim designs and it'll be perfect.

The wheel wells are so big, 21' rims look small.

 

[Gianclaudio]

I like it more and more. If I had the means, I wouldn't hesitate for a second.

Continental owners this week after seeing the new CGT:
On a serious note, it's a shame to see a hand built car go to waste, but I'm sure there's a reason. That's the VIN # spray painted on the car.

One day I shall return to there as I have left my heart in Florence.

We've driven and walked much of Firenze.

Engine: W12 Turbo
Transmission: 8-Spd Dual-Clutch
Drivetrain: AWD
Interior: Full of leather and plushness with cotton candies

It should be heavier

Interesting that they went for a dual clutch for this car, you would think the ZF 8 speed would have been smoother.

This is Panamera's platform so most probably they didn't have any chance to choose what transmission to use

 

[Soup]

I bet it has a lot to do with cost to be using the Panamera's transmission.

From the reviews, it's been said the Panamera's dual clutch has glass smooth shifts and almost undetectable.

Jump into a GT3 or Ferrari and you'll feel the jerkiness in lower gears and during stop and go. At high speeds and full throttle it's smooth as a butter with a slight kick during up/down shifts depending on driving mode.

Ooohh, I like it...! I see danger ahead. Since I'm seriously considering not buying German anymore, this one could be the causa of my (almost) state of bankruptcy. Who cares, you only live once.

 

[klier]

It's just gorgeous!

 

[KiwiRob]

I can't wait to see what the next Speed 8 is going to be like, it will be a beast in sure.

Do it, please!
