Re cently two PuristS spent some time in the drivers seat of the Bentley Continental GT3-R. In a previous teaser here on the PuristSPro Automotive forum, Dr. Mao mentioned the GT3-R as '...incredible performance car that also cradles its driver in the hig...  

Thanks TM. Looking forward to hearing your driving impressions of the GT3R. Regards, Ed

The rear spoiler might be a touch too much for a Bentley ... but as this is supposed to be a pretty unusual Bentley i don't really see a problem ...but the Finnish (carbon) is quite astounding ! I do wonder if i will ever see one in Belgium ? Bim

More carbon fiber than I've ever seen in a Bentley, makes it really sporty. Only 300 made and most of it is going to the US, but hope you get a chance to see one in Belgium some day. The color scheme (and the carbon wing too LOL) is eye catching so I'm su... 

I'm just not ready for Bentley now, the overall design seems it's targeting "majestic", "royal" and to be chauffered around kind of car for me....prefer sleeker designs. Thanks for sharing, Ed. Rgds Raymond

Stately and luxurious when it wants to be, and then has the muscle behind it just in case... :) We also drove the Mulsanne and that is definitely a Bentley to be chauffuered in. Rear passengers have a motorized desk with ipad and keyboard, and the center ...  

Probably one of the most comfortable cars that can push the limits so high. Best, JerryW

Definitely lots of fun to test drive even in traffic. Very comfortable that has the performance when needed. It's a heavy car but does well. Regards, ED-209

The ultimate driver's Bentley Continental GT! And no luxury lost really... Just amazing luxury throughout with race-y materials. I really like the exterior look. Green accents actually look pretty good artistically. But they're also too high profile for m... 

Do you think you'd get tired of seeing the green? And did you manage to get an audio file of the exhaust? I'd love to hear the pops and bubbles of the exhaust when the car is slowing down. I love these sounds on my GranTurismo. My wife says my car farts a... 

At least you don't smell it from the inside...

I personally don't like the GT3R script on the side of the Bentley. The green is nice even in the interior, gives it a really sporty look. Videos don't capture the sound of the engine. Regards, ED-209

it is a surprising mix, the typical Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde experience of driving a Bentley, extremely luxurious in its execution and rewarding but at the same time contradicting with its power ready to become more evil. It was a challenge to maxe it more... 

Thanks Luc! Very cool to know that there are different color schemes selected for such a rare car. Without the stickers the black and grey ones would be a really stealthy stop light drag car Regards, ED-209

With green stickers like the race cars but you can trust bentley customers for their desire for bespoke cars.

at the dealership and it was visually very impressive to the eyes! This dealership had both the white & black models. I prefer the black one but my wife likes the white one. OooOoo if I only asked the sales person to turn on the car so I could hear th...
