Spied: Next-Generation Bentley Continental GT

[See image gallery at www.vwvortex.com]

There is absolutely no doubting that Bentley’s Continental GT has been a huge success for the brand, so when the time finally comes for a replacement, it better be good.  Our friends at CarPix send over this shots taken by Autogespot.nl of what appears to be just that- an extremely aggressive reimagining of Bentley’s current GT.

Said to resurface as something akin to the EXP 10 Speed 6 concept from last year’s Geneva Motor Show, the next GT will ride atop the MSB platform, which it will share with Volkswagen Group stablemate Porsche.  Making things just a bit more interesting, the GT will retain it’s 600hp W12 power plant as well as the ‘base’ V8, meaning that this Continental should be quite an exciting drive at the limit.  We imagine the plug-in technology will come somewhere down the line, but likely not for another year or so.

The reveal of the next generation Bentley Continental GT is still a ways off, but we’ll forward you any news as it comes across our desk.

Project SportWagen: Going Stage 2 with APR

    When we last left you, the humble little SportWagen was fresh from the development process with our friends at AWE Tuning, sporting a new downpipe, exhaust and intake, allowing things to breathe a bit easier.  The car sounded great, but there was no getting around the fact that our wagon was still quite, well, slow.   While we realize that nothing we do to the Golf SportWagen at this point will make it a race car, we still felt compelled to do something .  To put it bluntly, we had a fever, and the only cure was more power. Flash forward a few hours, and we found ourselves at Waterfest, staring down APR’s palatial spread and the numerous tuned vehicles surrounding it.  Earlier in the year, APR had hinted to us that their 1.8 TSI files would be quite impressive, and based on what they were able to do with the 2.0 TSI found in the new GTI and our time in their Golf R, we knew it’d be worth the wait.  So with this in mind, we lined our G...

Novitec, Unsatisfied with Aventador SV, Adds More Veloce

The Lamborghini Aventador SV is no slouch, but if you’re into Lamborghinis, chances are you’re into big numbers. Whether it’s in the bank or under the hood, a big number could, and perhaps should, always be bigger, which is where Novitec steps in. Novitec has been modifying Italian cars for years, and their Torado line is dedicated to making ridiculous Lamborghinis even more ridiculous. Their latest effort takes the Aventador SV and remaps the engine to give it 786hp and 544 lb-ft of toque. They’ve also fitted the car with a new exhaust system that cuts 50 lbs off the car. Other mods include a carbon fiber aero package, spoiler, front splitter and air intake, all of which helps it shed even more weight. The Aventador also sits on 21 (back) and 20 (front) inch Vossen wheels. So if you think that a regular Aventador is just a little too pedestrian, give Novitec a call and they’ll hook you up.
