Default Hyundai Continental GT!?!?





A Bentley turned Hyundai? Oh the horror! The owner of this Continental GT has somehow professionally applied Hyundai badges on the trunk lid, center cap of each wheel and the hood. I’m sure Bentley isn’t finding any humor in this. But one thing’s for sure, the people over at Hyundai went home today with an enlarged ego. Tonight they will dream of Hyundai’s with Bentley-esque designs for their upcoming Elantra model. Let’s all cross our fingers and hope someone will pop up and admit this was just some sort of a photo-shop and they haven’t really defaced a six figure vehicle.
Must've been a Korean owner...
Essentially, it's still a Bentley but this is a serious downgrade to the car's value.

The pictures won't load in the browser; I had to open the link directly. And I can see why Internet Explorer is repulsed by the photographs. I was never particularly fond of this car's looks, but the Hyundai badges just make it look hideous.

No! It's not a Bentley anymore. It has been tainted by this shameful modification.

A rather expensive joke if this is for real. Even still, the very thought of the act is not good.

Or maybe it's a disgruntled owner trying to make a statement. Like...versus selling the car for a new one
