Strange car...very strange. I can't think of it as a mix of Continental GT and Zagato's Ferrari GTZ. The front and the rear don't quite fit each other IMO...
I think it looks good, very different but still remarkably Bentley. I like it.
I surprisingly like it.
I think the grille is too big...
I think it would look great as a convertible, but they would have to use a cabrio roof so it didn't get an ugly hump in the back
Fail. The double bubble roof doesn't even look good from the front.

My thoughts exactly, it looks great
To me it just looks like the regular Conti Zagato-zed.

No wonder, because that's just what it is :D
Underneath the altered body there are standard Continental GT Speed mechanicals.
Love it except the grille, i think it's too bi and at the wrong angle. Yesterday i didn't like the back, but Zagato designs always grow on me. The front it gorgeous tho.

well, it is the signature of zagato you know....:rolleyes:
it isn't ugly, but the front seems to come from another car, while the rear is very good, bentley enough, even if the bodywork around the rear wheels it very similar to the one found in the never produced Spyker C12 Zagato.
i surprisingly like it me too.

Yes I know...but that doesn't mean it fits on all the cars they apply it too....or that they couldn't, I don't know...try something new one these decades.:rolleyes:

i like the double bubble, btw, if it is a zagato it has the double bubble. it's nearly like the prancing horse for ferrari, even if i well know there already is the Z on the side to remember us who the designer is...i think this kind of roof works properly with the new design of the car, while in the standard GT it would me really out of place.

I know! But I liked the way the Spyker C12 Zagato and the 575 GTZ looked nothing like the cars they were based on.
However, I really hope this becomes a series production car. I know Bertone is in trouble and I'd hate to see the same fate befall Zagato and this could really help them out.
