The top end speed, the smoothness, and they're quiet but sound so good. I remember him drag racing at stop lights... People were so impressed and all wanted to see what a V12 can do. Engine was a rocket ship. The CL was a stunner, it had the M137. Nice car but that turned out to be a lemon. Rest easy pops, I miss you ❤

      The amount of luxury is no where near close man. I've been in Bentleys, driven an Audi S8, BMW 7 series and own a new S580. The Mercedes crushes the other 2 in luxury and even the Mercedes isn't as luxurious as the Bentley. Bentley and Rolls are entire brands devoted to the utmost luxury. The GTC is just their 2 seater version with some extra power, buddy just got one and it's great for what it is but you compare it to an M8. BMWs entire brand is about being a driving machine, always ready for a track. Almost opposite of the Bentley brand

    Now besides my previous comment, which would I choose if I could afford both the car and the maintenance? Super tough call. I'm one of the few it seems that adores the M8 Comp Coupe, would I rather have it over the original, unreleased M8? Doubtful. Would I choose it over my own spec'd Conti GT Speed? Also probably doubtful.... the Continental Speed is just too damn cool, even if I'd rather have a regular wheelbase Bentley Mulsanne just because of the pimp factor 😅

      A Bugatti Chiron's engine costs twice as much as this car and it "only" makes 1500 horsepower out of 4 more cylinders and 2 more liters of displacement. Hp/Liter doesn't scale linearly because of physics, but a 6 liter making 1700 horsepower would be 283 hp/liter which is unreasonably high, especially for a luxury barge and not some 3 million dollar hypercar.

    Haven't watched yet, but why put an M8 against a GT Speed instead of their turbo V8 offering to keep it even? I have a feeling the BMW (the M8 lol) is going to win regardless, but why put a turbo V8 against a turbo V12 when there's an available turbo V8 in the Continental GT? 🤔
