Bentley Continental GT
Despite its looks, this model is all-new for 2012. Small updates were made to the interior, including improvements to the ergonomics. The navigation and entertainment systems are more sophisticated and powerful. Meanwhile, the twin turbo 6.0L W12 gets a boost of 15 hp, bringing the total output to 567 hp. Torque is now split 40:60 front and rear. Don’t let its classic looks fool you; this vehicle’s mechanics are very modern.
