Anderson Germany's Bentley Continental GT Supersports




Tired of your boring ol' Bentley Continental GT Supersports? Well head over to the tuners at Anderson Germany for a tune up!

This package (pictured) features a reprogrammed ECU, new sports air filters and a lighter valve controlled sports exhaust system with free-flow catalysts. These upgrades add an extra 65hp (630hp - 695hp).


There's also a body kit that includes, new front and rear aprons, side skirts, a boot lid spoiler and a rear diffuser. Note: Production of the body kit is limited to 300 units. The kit is complemented by a new set of 22-inch alloy wheels coated in black and 285/30-22 high performance tires, too.



Additionally, you can get a mix of Alcantara and leather upholstery for the seats, door panels and steering wheel, plus loads of decorative carbon fiber trim.

World's fastest four-seater cabrio comes from Bentley



The convertible model features the same twin-turbocharged W12 engine found on the Continental Supersports Coupe. It produces 630 horsepower (621bhp) at 6,000 rpm and 800Nm (590lb ft) of torque at 2,000-4,500 rpm, and it is capable of running on both gasoline and E85 bioethanol or any combination of the two.

Power is channeled to all four wheels through a strengthened ZF 6HP26 transmission with a 'Quickshift' system that is said to reduce shift times by 50% while also enabling double downshifts.


Bentley says that the soft-top Supersports model accelerates from standstill to 60mph in 3.9 seconds (0-100km/h in 4.2 seconds), to 100mph in 9.6 seconds (0-160km/h in 9.5 seconds) and reaches a top speed of 202mph or 325km/h.


Other features include:
- revised suspension, steering and ESP settings
- 40/60 rear-biased torque split for the all-wheel drive system
- carbon-ceramic brakes
- slightly blistered rear wheel arches to accommodate the wider tracks
- 20-inch lightweight alloy wheels
- 275/35 ZR20 Pirelli Ultra High Performance tires
- interior has been upgraded with carbon fiber front sports seats, special materials and trim options
- unlike the coupe, the convertible model keeps the rear seats

This beauty goes on sale this Autumn at a price you can't afford if you have to ask.
