In 1991, Bentley introduced the Continental R, a muscular coupe with a thin roofline and squarish, athletic proportions. Not only was it the fastest, most powerful, most expensive Bentley of the day, but it was also unique in a number of ways, possibly the most obvious being that it didn’t share a body with Rolls-Royce, a first since the 1965 S3 Continental. In 1995, Bentley upped the ante by offering a convertible variant called Azure—again, a strikingly expensive, powerful car. But in 1996, the company felt something sportier was needed and introduced the Continental T.
Built on the shortened chassis of a Continental R, the T offered even more power, a unique interior, revised steering and suspension geometry, larger brakes, restyled wheel arches and other details that set it apart from the rest of the family. Weighing nearly 5,000-pounds, it was still a hefty car, but it sprinted from 0-60 MPH in about 6 seconds, finished the quarter-mile in about 14 seconds and topped out around 170 MPH. Needless to say, it was a force to be reckoned with, despite its weight. This Continental T has traveled just 42,715 miles from new and is one of 217 left-hand drive examples built.
Finished in all black, it even rolls on black-finished wheels wrapped with Pirelli P-Zero tires and has heavily tinted windows. If Batman or Darth Vader wanted a Bentley, this may well be the one. Inside, the unique Bentley features black leather upholstery all around, with the dashboard, console and doors trimmed with engine-turned aluminum rather than the more traditional wood veneers. The twin-turbocharged 6.75L V-8 engine makes 400 HP and 590 lb-ft of torque and is backed by an automatic transmission. Packed with features and amenities, the Continental T offers air conditioning, power steering, power brakes, power windows, power locks, power seats and a Pioneer CD stereo system.
To be sold with books and tools, this rare Continental T is a sight to behold and a modern muscle car fit for a king.
