Starting next year, Bentley is back in the FIA racing class with their Bentley Continental GT3. A racecar, showed in Paris. Something completely different than we’re used to of the manufacturer of luxurious sports limousines. Though, the English AutoCar thinks that the presentation of the Continental GT3 means more, they think that Bentley will come up with a street version!
It looks to be a big step to produce an ultimate Bentley, completely focused on racing for a manufacturer like Bentley. But nowadays almost every manufacturer builds a street legal racer. Porsche does this with the GT3 and the Superleggera models of Lamborghini are another example. It now seems that Bentley is in a far stadium of really building this car. It will be a worthy replacement of the 630 bhp strong Continental Supersports. People talk about a limited production of only 300 copies and an power of up to 700 bhp. This to compete with the supercar from Maranello, the Ferrari F12berlinetta. We can’t wait to find out what Bentley will surprise us with, just like they did with the Continental GT3 in Paris.
