Bentley Continental GT
Despite its hedonistic nature and voluptuous luxury, the Continental GT remains a wickedly efficient grand tourer, thanks to its standard all-wheel drive, well-engineered suspensions and healthy powerplants. The twin-turbo 4.0L V8 makes 500 (GT V8) or 521 (GT V8 S) horses, while the royal twin-turbo W12 pushes the boundaries of reality with 567 (GT) or 626 horses (GT Speed, GT-3 R). This superb coupe can be trimmed to its lucky owner’s preferences, and all versions are also available as convertibles.
