2010 Bentley Continental Supersports – Short Take Road Test

January 26th, 2010 admin

There’s a reason the seats feel like they came from Apollo 11. Writ large on its face with extra grilles and hood slots is what the most chest-thumping Bentley Continental model yet is all about: It’s about roasting weenies, especially ones in Porsches. The 621-hp Continental Supersports weighs 5011 pounds, costs nearly $275,000, and hits 60 mph in a face-peeling 3.6 seconds, almost a half-second quicker than the next-fleetest Continental, the 600-hp GT Speed .

Hyundai gives tuners more of what they need and less of what they don’t. But is it enough? Hyundai released its Genesis coupe a little late to capitalize on the pre-recession Fast and Furious era, but the company’s factory-backed pro drift car, myriad SEMA customs, and tire-shredding TV commercials show that the Korean company understands...
