Paris's pink Bentley Continental GT Coupe


The West Coast Customs team did it. Just take a look at the pink pictures above and below. Do you think this car is cute?


Here's the 2011 Bentley Continental GT, which is the second generation of the blockbuster coupe that rumbled ashore eight years ago. The 2011 Conti gets a boost in horsepower from its 6.0-liter twin-turbo W12 engine, hitting 567 horsepower and 516 pound-feet. Its engine swipes a page from the Continental Supersports playbook and gains flex-fuel capability, accepting any combination of gasoline and E85

More powerful W12 and new high-efficiency V8 FlexFuel engines

Dynamic Bentley driving experience

* ZF 6HP28 transmission with 'Quickshift' system that cuts shift times by 50% and enables double downshifts
* New 40:60 rear-biased torque split for the all-wheel drive system reduces understeer when powering out of bends and provides for better modulation of line and attitude by 'throttle steering'
* Increased front and rear track improves grip and stability

* 20" and (optional) 21" wheels
