So they have to rename the true Continental so as not to confuse it with the Phaeton running around wearing it's rightful name?

here, here!
Whenever I hear "Brooklands" I think of the slow, bloated, blob of a car they put out in the 90's.
Now the name Continental is ghetto!

When I hear Brooklands I think of the race track. But I agree, this is the true Continental. Doesn't bother me too much though.

Only two words come to mind; "BEAUTIFUL COUPE".

It looks nice, but viewed from some angles, it looks just like the mid 1990's Lincoln Continental Mark VIII.

I wonder if Bentley will let buyers add a spare tire 'continental kit' to the back.

Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful.

I'd take this (or an Azure) over a Conti GT/GTC any day of the week.

I was hoping it would look more agressive, like the old Continental T or even R. I have to agree that it does look a bit on the bland side, like the 80's-90's tbird. But Iwould still take one any day over a merc. cl.

twice the price though. There may be a T or R version, but this one already has 530 hp!

Pretty nice, but you can see the old technology in use. I am not sure about the rear overhang.

What "old technology"? The car might not have the industrial, soft-touch buttons of a BMW or Audi, but the classy metallic design misleads you. Everything in this car is updated.

I want one. It is so classic and pretty.

I agree though, I am not really such a fan of the interior color scheme. Give me a light tan interior with light Bird's Eye Maple and Walnut box inlays and I would be in heaven.

Anyone who says they wouldn't want to own one if they had the money is probably lying. For some reason I've always liked Bentley's as opposed to Rolls Royce. I guess because RR are mainly cheuffer driven while Bentley's normally are driven by the buyers (at least from what I've seen in person).

...but that is not true: only 10% of Rolls-Royce owners are cheauffered in them. That being said, I get your point.
