Default Bentley Continental GT/LM

Over 1000lbs saved on the LM version, that's amazing.

Ahhh...well if you look at the credits at the bottom of that page, it says, Genaddi design...and the photos...I'm pretty sure they're photoshopped images. Anyway, the Genaddi design people have been making sort of outlandish PS images for a while (convertible Maybach and Conti GT...hi-po Conti Gt, now the GT/LM) but I have yet to see anything real come of their claims. Should be interesting to see all the sam ehehe.

Well Id say that the racing DB9 is not going to be that much of an upgrade. Look at the past vantage upgrades they have done. Like the old DB7 vantage V12 that wasnt really a huge step up from its standard performace. Plus it was heavier.

Id say that there is apossibility to make this bently perform well if they do the rights tweaks, and getting rid of some of the bent.'s huge weight issue is a good start. So I wont make any claims as of yet.

Astin martin is a great company, and Id take one over a bently anyday, but in terms of performance, Id have to wait and see.

1000lb weight saving -- Wholly crap!!! :shock: :shock: Feel like fatbastard in Austin Power III

But Bentley Continental GT already has 57/43 pretty front heavy weight distrubition with typical quadro AWD layout, I wonder what the weight distrubition will be after saving 1000lb.
