How to Drive the World's Most Exclusive Muscle Car, the Bentley Continental GT
Experience Grand Touring in the Super-Rare, Super-Fast, Super-Indulgent Bentley at DFW Elite Auto Rental.com

DALLAS-FORT WORTH, TX, July 14, 2009 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Even if you've already had the rare pleasure of driving a Bentley, you're going to want to get behind the wheel of the Continental GT, the mold-breaking "sports limo" that either put unprecedented power into a luxury car, or unprecedented luxury into a sports car... take your pick.

The Continental GT's 2004 debut defied categories and wowed drivers as Bentley blended the spirit of its classic '50s coupes with award-winning design innovation and seemingly inexhaustible power. An immediate favorite of the superstars of sports, business and entertainment, its exclusivity still makes it quite a rare sight on the road.

"After leaving Rolls-Royce, Bentley went on a period of soul-searching," says Ron Sturgeon, owner of DFW Elite Auto Rental.com (http://www.dfweliteautorental.com) in Dallas/Ft. Worth, "and they came out of it with the fastest 4-seat coupe in the world." Fortunately for us non-superstar types, Sturgeon recently added a 2005 blue Bentley GT rental to his collection of elite exotic car in Dallas-Fort Worth. Daily rental of the GT includes 100 miles per day and starts at $750.

The core of the Bentley Continental GT is its 6.0-liter twin-turbo W12 engine. Its compact 4x3 configuration, which allows for both a sleeker chassis and generous cabin space, thumps out some 552 horsepower and maxes just shy of 200 mph (320 kph). And with 479 pound-feet of torque available to all 4 wheels at just a tic above idle, this car gives the sensation of unlimited power at the tap of a toe.

Riding on all this muscle is one of the most sumptuous and elegant spaces ever designed, right down to the hand-sewn leather steering wheel and the signature book-matched wood veneers. Classic touches like bulls-eye vents, push-knob controls, analog instruments, and a Breitling clock give the distinctive Bentley signature to a 21st century driving environment with 300-watt audio, 4 zone climate control, navigation system, satellite radio, Bluetooth, and noise-cutting double paned windows.

It's no wonder that Bentley's director of design, Dirk van Braeckel, was awarded the '08 European Automotive Design Award for the Continental GT. It's certainly one of the most impressive cars in the world, even without looking under the hood or getting behind the wheel. With its 19-inch wheels, fastback profile, and hand-in-glove fitting, this car turns heads no matter where it's taken.
