REMARKS:1997 Bentley Continental T Grand Coupe 6.7L V8 Turbo for Sale
HIGHLIGHTS:
Opulent. Effortless. Elegant.
The Continental T — a short-wheelbase evolution of the Continental R — embodied the spirit of a true Bentley grand tourer. Beneath its sculpted, low-slung silhouette lay a formidable 400bhp V8 turbo motor, delivering a 0–60mph sprint in just 5.8 seconds and a (governor-limited) top speed of 155mph. Its cockpit, inspired by the heroic exploits of pre-1950s race cars and fighter aircraft, exudes both nostalgia and purpose.
This example is finished in Carmine Red Metallic over a sumptuous two-tone St. James Red and Magnolia hide, presented exactly as it left the factory — unmolested, original, and with just one VIP owner from new. Built in a production run of only 321 units, and with fewer than a handful believed to exist in Malaysia, it remains one of the most exclusive and expensive automobiles of 1997 — a jewel worthy of any serious collection.
