Bentley Continental GT3-R 2014

[cmbeal317]

Update 6/17/14: Bentley has unveiled the new Continental GT3-R, a road going version of the GT3 race car. Powered by a 572HP, Twin Turbo version of the V8 from the Continental V8 S, and losing 220 pounds over the regular Continental. The suspension has also been improved and the transmission has shorter gearing for faster acceleration. Unfortunately it still retains the AWD(now with torque vectoring), as opposed to the rumored RWD.

Bentley is reportedly bringing a road-going version of the Continental GT3 to the Goodwood Festival of Speed. It's rumored to have the V8 tuned to around 700HP and will be rear wheel drive only! It's also rumored to be a limited production car.

Sounds really nice .... V8 and 700HP.
👍

Apparently it will be called Bentley Continental GT3-R and will weigh a significant amount less. No 6l W12 engine will help. Should be a savage performer but the rear-wing looks so out of place.

I would gladly welcome it to my GT6 garage.

Rear wheel drive? I hope this car is lighter than the original Continental V8, it's as heavy as a tank.

Bentley has now released the information on the Continental GT3-R, not as good as it was rumored to be. I'd still buy one though!
