 
A surprising number of new vehicles have come from this time-honored British marque over the last few years—all based on the sleek, powerful Continental GT. These models include the Flying Spur sedan and GTC Convertible. But earlier this year at the 2007 Geneva Motor Show Bentley took the wraps off a new model that feels more like a true Bentley. The Brooklands—named for the British racetrack that celebrates its 100th anniversary this year—is a traditional Bentley touring coupe. Under this impressive vehicle’s very long hood resides the most powerful V8 engine ever from Bentley. The twin-turbocharged 6.75-liter V8 pumps out 530 horsepower and an amazing 775 lb-ft of torque which should move this car along at an exhilarating pace. As expected, the Brooklands boasts a sumptuous interior with the highest quality leather and wood trim. Priced at $340,990, only 550 will ever be built. Meanwhile, a higher-performance “Speed†version of the Continental GT will go on sale this fall. With its 12-cylinder engine producing 600 horsepower and 553 lb-ft of torque, the Continental GT Speed is the most powerful production car to ever come from Bentley. The added power gives the sexy coupe a top speed in excess of 200 mph. The standard Continental GT, Continental GTC and Flying Spur all receive minor trim and feature updates for 2008.
