The Continental GT was the first mass-produced vehicles from Bentley after their acquisition by Volkswagen AG. This model was a brilliant new design that became an immediate success at the Geneva Auto Show and the Goodwood Festival of Speed in 2003! Because of its combination of both modern construction techniques and hand-made attributes, build cost were easily controlled which overall commanded a much larger consumer audience. In 2004, they were made available to the public with the first generation continuing through 2011. The standard drivetrain for the Continental was a Twin-Turbocharged W12-cylinder engine that produced 552 horsepower and 479 lb. ft. of torque utilizing a Torsen continuous all-wheel-drive system!
Even with a stout platform pushing nearly 5,500 pounds in convertible form and stuffed with creature comforts, this heavyweight luxury example could still launch passengers to 60mph in 4.8 seconds and had a top speed of nearly 198mph! This type of luxury and performance was not easily replicated by any competitor in the marketplace at this time. Even today, their timeless styling makes them highly coveted for buyers looking for a great sports car, along with the luxury presence only a Bentley can offer!
We are pleased to offer this 2008 Bentley Continental GT Convertible (GTC) finished in rare Silver Lake over Magnolia hides with factory equipment to include a 6-speed automatic transmission, air suspension with ride height & damper control, multi-zone climate control HVAC system, 12-speaker audio system with 6-disc CD changer control, DVD navigation system, Bluetooth hands-free system, keyless entry & ignition, ABS braking, traction control, & stability control, power latching doors, power opening/closing trunk, Breitling brand dash clock, heated seats, rain-sensing wipers, parking assist, tire-pressure monitoring system, and more!
Additional equipment includes chrome lower bumper matrix, 3-spoke two-tone hand-stitched steering wheel, upgraded Bird's Eye Maple veneer, matching boot carpet to main and secondary hides, deep pile carpet mats, and special alloy fuel filler cap. It shows just 30,000 carefully driven miles on the odometer while in the care of its two former owners. Having delivered new from Bentley of St. Louis with 21 miles, the first owner had the car professionally delivered to their winter home in Palm Beach, Florida for the first 3 years of service. While there, this Bentley was perfectly maintained through Braman Motorcars- Bentley of Palm Beach for servicing.
In May 2011, this GTC sold to the second owner back here is St. Louis, MO where it was driven on fair weather days over the past 12 years. Today, the odometer reads only 30,043 actual miles with all recommended service completed meticulously by the current owner at Bentley of St. Louis. This included new Pirelli tires, 4-wheel alignment, and itemized 3-Year Annual Service just this last March 2022. This involves a complete multipoint inspection of all critical systems, replacement of the engine oil/filter, new spark plugs, engine air filters, new wiper blades and key fob batteries. The main vehicle battery was replaced February 2021. Ready for immediate delivery with original both driver keys, owner's manuals, as well as Bentley storage charger. We recommend that any interested party act quickly as rare color combinations much like the Bentley example seen here do not come around often!
