CONFIRMED FOR 2010:ARNAGE: Discontinued, replaced by the Mulsanne.
BROOKLANDS: No changes.
CONTINENTAL GT: Now available with two-tone paint. A new "Series 51" model (also available in the Continental GTC convertible) features a three-tone interior with unique materials, 20" 14-spoke wheels, and special badging on the front fenders... er, sorry, wings.
CONTINENTAL GTC: (photo) The convertible Continental gets a revised grille, chrome trim around the headlights, and a couple of new paint colors. The power steering system has been revised for better feel, and the standard GTC gets softer shocks for a smoother ride. The new Continental GTC Speed is essentially a drop-top version of the GT Speed coupe. It gets a W12 engine that produces 600 hp, 48 more than the standard GTC. Top speed is 200 MPH (but only 195 with the top down). Both models now offer carbon-ceramic brakes and adaptive cruise control as options. The GTC is also available in a "Series 51" model (see CONTINENTAL GT, above).
CONTINENTAL SUPERSPORTS: (photo) Bentley bills the new Continental Supersports coupe as the fastest, most powerful Bentley ever built, with a 621 horsepower twin-turbo W12 engine, 3.9 second 0-60 time and a 204 mph top speed. All this, plus it's about 240 lbs lighter than the Continental GT Speed and has E85 flex-fuel capability.
MULSANNE: (photo) The new Mulsanne replaces the Arnage as Bentley's flagship. The Mulsanne is powered by a 505 horsepower twin-turbo V8 with variable valve timing and cylinder deactivation. Designed and built in the UK, the Mulsanne goes on sale in the home market in summer 2010, priced at £220,000 -- just over $350,000.
