2011 Bentley Continental Supersports is displayed between two different worlds. Bentley Traditionally, all the luxury features, but differs from pampered luxury, it also tries to fit in an exotic sports car with high performance. Finally, it seems that too many compromises were made at both ends of the spectrum.
The "standard" Continental GT is already a powerful player in itself, reaching 60 mph in 4.7 seconds and a top speed of 199 km / h. The Supersports is more than clear that management, 00 to 60 kmh acceleration 3.8 seconds and a top speed of 204 mph. Impressive, yes, but one must wonder about the performance improvements in the face of a price of $ 77 000. Supercars and the cost is not just money.
To save weight, removed Bentley from the back seat (its usefulness is debatable), and confirmed the development of the suspension, which may be offensive to some people - even more performance-minded drivers. Manual seats can also be a disappointment to some, as it would be out of the interface of information and entertainment daily. Furthermore, it is likely that the next Continental Supersports accepts many improvements in 2012 Continental GT.
The ability to purchase "last year," Bentley might be enough buyers to push in the direction of a true exotic sports car. Aston Martin DBS is similarly priced, and offers a balanced combination of luxury and performance. Ferrari 458 Italy is a bit '"cheaper and offers more flexibility and the McLaren MP4-12C, and the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG. And always advocate for the Porsche 911 line, a wide range of services to suit different tastes.

Questions seat next to the interior of the Sport "Super is also very well done as any Bentley.
