[See image gallery at www.vwvortex.com]

Bentley has today shown off the special First Edition version of its new Continental GT.

Bentley says the Continental GT First Edition takes all of the finest features offered on the latest version of the grand tourer and brings them together to create the most luxurious package possible. It features the Mulliner Driving Specification, which adds 22-inch wheels (available in bright paint, black, hand polished or full polish finishes), drilled alloy foot pedals and jewel-finish oil and filler caps. It also includes the City Specification and Touring Specification packages, which add things like hands-free trunk opening, pedestrian warning, traffic sign recognition, city braking, adaptive cruise, a heads-up display, and night vision with an infrared camera.

The interior was the focus of this limited-edition GT and as such, it features the Bentley Rotating Display with a 12.3-inch touchscreen and diamond-in-diamond quilt stitching on the seats, door panels and rear quarter panels, (all featuring a unique contrast stitch only available with the First Edition). Customers will also get the choice of four wood dashboard veneers (Tamo Ash, Liquid Amber, Dark Stained Madrona and Dark Fiddleback Eucalyptus), and can choose from a Bentley 650W audio system, an upgraded 1500W Bang & Olufsen system and a range-topping 2200W Naim audio system. Completing the package are First Edition Union Jack ‘1’ logos throughout the interior and on the exterior.

Bentley did not provide information on pricing or availability, but if you have to ask.

Then the purchase of Ducati, a move most called folly. And then there was the Phaeton, the Volkswagen that most folks can’t afford. Not only were these moves all strange, I’m sure that they made VW’s accountants furious. None of them made good business sense, but they were all deeply interesting and they all are evidence of the heart that beats at the center of VW. Among these follies is the CC, a car that everyone agrees is rakishly handsome, but that no one really wanted to buy. The car couldn’t last, but the world is brighter for its having been in it. With the approach debut of the Arteon, it seems like a good time to look back on its sadly departing predecessor. The version I drove, because I live in Canada, is a V6 Wolfsburg Edition, which apparently isn’t available in the States. Nor is the V6, not as

Waterfest Moves to Atco Dragway

Waterfest 24 will be held at Atco Dragway, in Atco, New Jersey. The summer event will take place at its new venue on July 21 and 22. Long held in Englishtown, New Jersey, the festival has been such a large part of the VW scene that the latest iteration of the Golf even comes with optional “Englishtown” wheels . The new venue, however, is an NHRA drag track a scant 52 miles southwest of Englishtown. The ¼ mile drag track opened in 1960, which makes it the oldest drag strip in New Jersey. The announcement came today on a social media post that announced the new location. Waterfest is North America’s largest VW/Audi show. As many 20,000 people show up for the annual show, making the second largest show in the world—with Worthersee being number one. 2018 will be Waterfest’s 24 th year in existence.
