The interior of the Bentley GT Continental is exquisitely crafted with as much as 14 beautiful leather hides. These hides are all hand picked and cut at the same time to prevent any variation in texture. A hide will be rejected even if it is observed to have an insect bite, which is the reason they are selected from the famous and high quality herds of Northern Europe.It takes over five hours to create one leather steering wheel cover. Each one is double stitched by hand using one unbroken piece of thread.

With a staggering 552 horses under the hood the Bentley Continental GT would always be the favorite at the Kentucky Derby. The peak 552 horsepower is reached at 6100 rpm. On the other hand, its massive 470+ lbs of torque are achieved at a mere 1600 rpm. One could say the GT is always ready to rock and roll with that much torque under such minimal rpm. The Bentley GT rockets from 0-60 in merely 4.7 seconds. The Bentley GT is capable of climbing to speeds which reach nearly 200 mph.
