I am not downtown often so I don't see allot of exotics.
Friday driving down 11th ave a Bentley contanental GT Convertable was right infront of me * didn't bother taking pictures*

The top was up, then at the press of a button the trunk opened up, and the top folded up and went inside the trunk it was super cool, It was an old guy driving it, probably late 60's. And a younger women I believe.


Very nice vehicle!. Were taking 650 000 I believe?

Way less then that...

Continental GT - $230k starting
Continental GT Convertible - $250k starting

In Canadian dollars...

Options are crazy expensive I bet.

I rolled up on a silver one in my turbo mkI. Guy seemed surprised I didn't get totally annihilated from a roll. (Key word: totally. I got annihilated pretty good, but not as bad as I should've!)

They're kinda nice.

If they were lighter, they wouldn't be Bentleys.

My appoligies on the price of the vehicle, I was misunderstood.
Beautifull vehicles however. It's more of a status for older fellows with more money then they know what to do with however. Not so much if I had 300 grand I'd buy a lamborgini or a ferrari.

If I was 70 years old, cashed in my RSP's and can afford a 300K vehicle, I don't know if I'd be comforatable driving a lamborghini all the time.

Most likely these bentley's are the Daily drivers and they have lambo's and saleens in the garauge though!.

You're paying for the name. Made mostly from VW parts... Sat in one and the roof line was too low for my taste and the pillars were too big and bulky, creating large blind spots where it was difficult to see. Not worth the money IMO, but then again, if I had the money to spare and felt like showing off, I'd probably buy one.

Lots more exotics on the streets of Cowtown lately. I don't get downtown much either but I always manage to see one or two on the weekends, and a lot on the way to and from Banff & Radium.
