Bently seems to be having fun building this car. Other cars people are probably stressed and trying too hard to build a car and obviously almost nobody ends up with a supercar handling better than McLaren so it's a hard business to be an engineer in, Bently doesn't have a goal to make the nurburgring lap record holder so they don't have pressure to build a car equaling McLarens lap times so they can enjoy making it testing it and it's a product that lots of people had nothing but fun with making and testing
I think Bentley has nailed the best interior in the automotive industry and they have produced something really solid and high quality and very unique with w12 engine I think they have produced a magnificent car props to the people who have managed this brand and great decisions that they have made they have done truly an outstanding job. BTW what a lovely cream 1950s Bentley type R on the display
@@richardmarkham8369 Your reply just popped up in my emails. After 5 months I had to go back and watch the video. I've since had a chance to ride in the new GT Continental but didn't get to drive it. Have you driven one? As I stated in the original comment, IMHO Bentley's have always had a presence of "heavy" but are remarkably spry for their size. A 911 GT3 it is not but even from the passenger seat it felt a lot more capable than one might expect. I'd be interested to know from someone who has driven one if that is in fact the case with this car.
@@erichakanson7010 Alas I own a gen 1 Speed so I imagine the new one is like chalk and cheese, given the totally different underpinnings and trick rear end. On the plus side, the weight does make it feel a little more sure footed when pressing on! Maybe in 10 years time they'll be available for £30k!!!
I like that they're sticking to W12 and continue improving it, imagine downsizing with Bentley, 4cyl biturbo for basic model and biturbo V6 for top spec... :/// It would be extremely weird, that's how once loved cars are slowly loosing it's soul...
I've always loved a Speed Conti!! The videography just keeps getting better and better on your channel James, I was already hooked by your unique thesaurus wording and amazing personal views on cars... but you keep evolving and becoming even more Mr JWW then before!! Thanks ✌
W12 is two VR6 engines combined to make a W12. It was VW's design many year ago. The VR6, W8 & W12 shall always be known as Wookie's for the Chewbacca like sounds they roar!
Time syncing the in-car audio with the drone footage. You clever sausages! It’s the little touches that demonstrate the effort that is put into this channel.
When you do get the GT Speed on the road do you think you could do a proper road trip. Crossing Germany at night is my favourite way to test a fast car. And after all it is called the Continental, not the Next Village and back.
I love the car. Great combination of attributes. I do have a question for you though......................... how long does it take you to adjust between righthand and lefthand drive ? I tried a righthand drive rental in Hong Kong years ago and I really had to watch myself.
Not the most dynamic: the Continental GT Supersport of the previous generation still has the title. But is a good iteration of the gorgeous Continental GT 2019. My fav non electric car.
Again what a video and the production is ridiculous for a youtube video. Loving the Red Alert style music, People who have played the game will get this.
Never on my mind a Akrspovic singing from a continental, and by the look the drive on the track its looks like a hippo ballerina dancing on stage nibley 🤯
That carbon exterior pack looks naff with red paint and silver wheels. I like the actual Speed upgrades, but I'd still be wanting a standard interior, not Alcantara. I think it's a great package.
Thank you for not mumbling though a mask 😷 Great content as usual, you deserve all the success you have made for yourself. Every British brand should have you as an ambassador 🇬🇧👍🏼🙏You are too cool for school 😎
I think I'm starting to appreciate this new Continental a lot more as time goes by than some newer supercars!
Agree 👍
Same the rear lights look like black mantis eyes from Aquaman lol

@@Kigoz4Life tint them
😍 lovely car but the V8 seems to be preferred to the V12 in overall drivability. I wonder how this new car compares to the V8 as a daily driver.
Def! The perfect daily driver!
That drone shot at 7:30 👏👏👏
Good spot, never mind Mr JWW, that drone pilot was really on it 😎
Right?
"Visual on target. Moving in... and... lock!"
FPV drone?

So much better review than the other “TH-camrs”! High class quality as always! Stunning
Hi
I don’t know why this channel doesn’t have 2 million followers. Superb content and production.
Hi, nice comment
I wonder if some genius looked at the old Bentley and exclaimed "Sweet Rolls!"
🤣😂
I honestly came very close.
Hahaha
Looks fantastic in that shade of red…nice vid 😎
Looks cooler in British Racing Green
Crazy how Bentley's look heavy (and are somewhat heavy) but manage to handle like a car half the weight.
yes,just watch "tim schrick gt v8" !
Somewhat heavy! Understatement of the year award goes to Eric. Still they certainly ride a LOT better than their mass would suggest.

WHAT A CAR, Bentley Sure knows how to build a solid machine!!
Looks like it finally makes sense to buy a Bentley!
Hello
@@vivianpeihuawu2632 Hello vivi! Fancy meeting you on this channel! Drive well darling and bend it like Bentley!
That interior(bites hand)
😎
Smartest move for sure by Bentley so far, buying that Panamera platform.
For sure. Good on whoever decided and signed off on switching from the VW/Audi platform to Porsche.
That cream/gold color with the black wheels is hot
The British muscle beast! The interior is ace!
Dude, the only British thing about it is the badge. Unfortunately it’s German engineering and perfection. Oxymoron of the century is British quality..
Thanks James, you're the best outhere
What colors can you get the speed in ? Is cricket ball red available in the speed?
Mr.JWW for President.
Please in a future review talk how’s the ride quality and suspension compare with the old version. Which one give a better and softer ride?
I was waiting for the spot of context 😏.
Great job as always ✌️
Awesome Grand Tourer in the car History
I appreciate the spot of context that is wearing British Racing Green shoes to drive a new British car.
Great video James, what a car, such a good looking and cool car. The old one is ageing so nicely now too.
Great commentary on this one James I loved it
Insane car, insane video!!!
I like that they're sticking to W12 and continue improving it, imagine downsizing with Bentley, 4cyl biturbo for basic model and biturbo V6 for top spec... :/// It would be extremely weird, that's how once loved cars are slowly loosing it's soul...
Great vid. There is a part of me that feels new heavy gas powered sedans are a bit out of date at inception. In an age of hybrids and evs

Thanks ✌
Glad you enjoyed it thanks buddy!
Your suede Jacket is really cool. what brand is it? can you share the link to it f possible?
Awesome video, that's a great looking Bentley!
😂😂🤣🤣 I was just think why are you’d wearing sunglasses in doors and then you took em off. Thought you were getting to rock star there. 🤣👍
I'm going to purchase one in Dallas, Texas when the QFS is activated!!!
W12 is two VR6 engines combined to make a W12. It was VW's design many year ago. The VR6, W8 & W12 shall always be known as Wookie's for the Chewbacca like sounds they roar!
The taillights are so clean. They remind me of 90's aero concept car design
As always. Love your videos. Love the Bentley
Hello
Time syncing the in-car audio with the drone footage. You clever sausages! It’s the little touches that demonstrate the effort that is put into this channel.
Hello
Do a running cost vid. Would be interesting to know.
A 209 mile per hour, 4400 pound beast seems practical to me...
But I drive a C63 AMG Black Series that does 201 and it’s a practical 4 door beast.
Nice drone shots & amazing car.
Love an early upload! Just pop my laptop down and make another coffee I think good call mate 👍
Hi, can i know the name of the sunglasses that you were wearing at the beginning of the video,it would be really helpful if you reply.
Nice review keep up the good work what's the asking price
Beautiful Bentley 💯💯🍾🍾 watching from Hong Kong
When you do get the GT Speed on the road do you think you could do a proper road trip. Crossing Germany at night is my favourite way to test a fast car. And after all it is called the Continental, not the Next Village and back.
How would you improve on this car ? 2 cars in one STUNNING!!
Did they finally get it with wireless Android Auto?
That interior is on another level 🏆😍
Every iteration of the GT just keeps getting better and better looking. They just keep nipping and tucking and tweaking it to near perfection
Don't know why but I have such a soft spot for these cars... One day 🙏👌
Hi
I hope the new gt speeds will have the ‘brushed aluminum trims for the exterior like the previous generation
I cant wait for the gt3
What is the exact colour name of the tested Bentley GT?
So the W12 speed has V8 style exhaust pipes ?
They have very much improved the front and rear look of the car.
Top of my bucket list car. Bentley Conti GT SPEED is totally awesome.
Beautiful car..with staggering performance, well done
Shmee was there too
Awesome content, keep it up mate 👌
The exhaust sound is disappointing, Super Sports was monster sounding :))
That gold one 😍
I loved the dark orange, a color really makes up a big part of a car.
What will happens with those Bentley Continental GT Speed afer this presentation ?
Are these prototype ?
Mandatory Montages required with amazing music 🎶.
Come on guys you had such an amazing car in your hands 🔥
Best looking conti by far
Was that shmee at 7.54 bottom right hand corner of the video
Hi
It's beautiful and elegant for sure. Not my pick at the price cause I like Supercars more but it's great.
As usual very good professional presentation excellent.
I love the car. Great combination of attributes. I do have a question for you though......................... how long does it take you to adjust between righthand and lefthand drive ? I tried a righthand drive rental in Hong Kong years ago and I really had to watch myself.
Awesome video thanks 🙏

Bentley: Is it...?
Me: Yes!

Never on my mind a Akrspovic singing from a continental, and by the look the drive on the track its looks like a hippo ballerina dancing on stage nibley 🤯
Best job in the world 👊
What a machine...awesome
It kind of needs a back-to-back test with a Superfast to answer question 3...
Hi
That carbon exterior pack looks naff with red paint and silver wheels. I like the actual Speed upgrades, but I'd still be wanting a standard interior, not Alcantara. I think it's a great package.
bentley desperately needs to make a true sports car again, not these quick luxury coupes
When you eventually do a proper road test of the new Bentley GT can you do one in a soft top please???
The A pillers are so thick and that thin bit looks so crap that would do my head in why is it even to there
Is this a 2021? I luv the interior.
Yes sir
I wanna have one of each colors, but the question is who is going to give it to me. Candy red, marine green, n cream white looks good
What a car. Got love the gt European muscle
Hello
I don't know what happend,but why is it that the Bentley speed looks so stunning and just gets better and better.
Hello
This car is nice, I don’t think the blacked out grill looks all that classy on a Bentley, but each to their own.
What colour is this
metallic orange please
What is this exterior color. It’s perfect on this car. Somebody please let me know.
Love the new GT and the Speed looks great. would you consider it as a GT car for the garage? Is it closer to the F12 TDF or the DBS as a proposition?
Hello
well if i paid that much it would be wrapped in cotton wool, but it's nice j can sling it around a track without my heart giving way
great review mate
Have you ordered one yet?
This is what the Porsche 928 turbo should be.
Hey JWW you are amazing.
From India🇮🇳
What a beautiful car
Don't Know But That Bentley Continetental GT Speed Is All My Style
I just don't get the Bentley appeal. What I do get is those boots, very nice sir, very nice.
