Revitalized with new ownership, management, and financial resources by the late 1990s following the acquisition by Volkswagen AG, the iconic Bentley marque created what has to be the world's most luxurious 'Supercar' ever conceived. Based on a shortened and incredibly rigid chassis, the new Bentley Continental GT featured a twin-turbocharged and intercooled W-12 engine delivering 552 horsepower and 479 pounds-feet of torque. Reliability was built-in from the outset, with one Continental GT run at 175 mph over an 18,500-mile distance at Italy?s famous Nardo test track. The Continental GT?s hand-assembled W-12 engine, similar to a pair of V-6 engines sharing a common crankshaft, was built to withstand the rigors of boost levels ranging between 4.4 and 10.2 psi generated by the twin KKK Warner turbochargers. Power is delivered via a ZF six-speed automatic gearbox and 3.521 rear-axle ratio. The W-12's massive torque output is split evenly by the all-wheel drive system between the front and rear axles using a torque-sensing differential. Normal, Sport, and Tiptronic shift modes are available, with manual capability via competition-type shift paddles.
While its technical specifications and massive performance are certainly astounding, the Continental GT included Bentley's unwavering levels of style, luxury, and elegance to match. Richly trimmed in top-quality double-stitched leather, accented by aluminum and book-matched burled-wooden trim throughout the interior, the Continental GT debuted in 2003 to intense acclaim from the motoring press and buyers alike.
Handsomely finished in its all-original Cypress Green paint and two-tone Tan and Olive Connolly leather upholstery, this 2006 Bentley Continental GT is a highly desirable example with just over 38k miles of use at the time of writing. A clean Carfax vehicle-history report accompanies this true modern classic Bentley. In addition to its powerful twin-turbocharged W-12 powerplant and 6-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters, this Continental's highlights include all-wheel drive, power heated front bucket seats with massage, 4-zone automatic climate control, a leather-wrapped tilt/telescopic steering column, cruise control, and an audio system with 6-disc CD changer and Navigation. Other desirable features and amenities include a heated rear bench seat plus a folding rear console, power-operated outside mirrors and front and rear side windows, and further power features addressing the brakes, steering, steering wheel, sunroof, rear sunshade and steering wheel.
In addition to factory-issued books and manuals, this Continental GT includes nav-system discs, a color-matched umbrella, and 2 extra keys. Riding on a newer set of tires fitted in 2022, this Continental GT also benefits from recent service and restoration of the vacuum system. Originally sold with a $167,585 MSRP, this truly outstanding 2006 Bentley Continental GT is further accompanied by a window sticker and clean Carfax vehicle-history report. A true modern classic, this 2006 Bentley Continental GT is an outstanding choice for people who love to drive and appreciate true luxury. Contact us today for full details and viewing arrangements.
