Nice!!! So this essentially is a convertible version of the GT Speed?

White car with a black roof looks super. Gotta love that interior color combination and the criss-cross stitching on the leather.

Seems its just an aesthetic facelift of the previous one. now it comes with a 3-tone interior and diamond stitch all across as visible on the seats and a 2-tone exterior.

That is one Bling Bentley!

All the features from the bling rims, the luxrious interior, the white and black colour combination and curvy lines make this beauty look amazing! I was never a big fan of the GTS, but this has changed my mind

so this is bentley's way of making the most of the fame the Continental GT/Flying spur has created. or is it the VW brain behind it?

IMO, the couple looks better any day. With the top down this car looks so-so, but when not the green tarp/top looks a bit weird.

the white color and the alloys look nice, but still the 8 year old car. some changes are required.

probably next inline for a GTC will be some special edition with Breitling add-ons, typical of Bentleys.
