After looking at David Tracy’s piece yesterday on the Bentley Continental GT Convertible getting a Tweed top.

!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!

Now, though I’d love a Tweed top especially a Linton Tweed as it’s made two streets away from where I live.

I do love the lines of the Continental GT coupe,

Kinja'd!!! Kinja'd!!!

Especially the rear.

Kinja'd!!!

Though the interior is not quite to my liking.

Is this a new chassis or another facelift. I like it much better seems less bubbly than the last gen

I think even in 20 years they’ll still be a bit more than 5 grand.

I think it’ll crap out before it’s old enough to get that cheap.

No idea. I saw the back end of the convertible and it looks fantastic, the curves, the flowing lines, the symmetry and the elegance .

I like how the exhaust almost mirrors the taillights.

I mean, look at this.

It’s a very handsome car.

That particular interior isn’t just gaudy, IT’S SHOUTY! The cream/blue  combination is superb, but the chrome? Ugh...

You can spec it with more wood and less chrome and quilting, and it’s much nicer. I was playing with the configurator not long ago: https://oppositelock.kinja.com/dreaming-in-colour-1829066096

It’s from the animated show “ Home Movies”*. You should check it out on the internets when you have time.

*earlier work from most of the same people who worked on Dr. Katz, Lucy Daughter of the Devil, and Bob's Burgers, to name a few.

The centre console is too cluttered.

Keep the dashboard but give me the centre console of the Audi A5,

Kinja'd!!!

or even an A6.

New chassis, apparently codeveloped with Porsche (shared with Panamera) .

This exterior style is a lot more athletic looking than the prior one (the interior is a bit too 21st century Belle Epoque, hints at guillotines or walls ) , but I still would rather have a 90s Continental SC:

Kinja'd!!!

Unfortunately, these haven’t depreciated like later models, and running costs must be hilarious, so it won’t happen unless I win a nice lottery.

I do like the classic looks of the Arnage or the Brooklands.

Yeah the S1/2/3 Continentals are amazingly elegant cars. That one is crazy money, but also crazy nice (and what a color) , if you want the best, you gotta open up the wallet .

HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHA

Not gonna lie, I’d hug Svend.  I might get a thorough waxing, but I’d do it.
