Most drivers of a Bentley Continental GTC are already used to getting attention. But for those who might feel that the spotlight has moved on to other cars, ASI has a new body kit to help people take notice again. The new kit features a re-designed front bumper with carbon fiber insertions and daytime running LEDS, new side skirts, a new rear trunk spoiler as well as a new rear bumper with new exhaust system cutters and rear air diffuser.
In order to complete the kit 22-inch alloy rims were added fitted with 265/30 tires in the front and 295/25 on the rear. Pricing was not released yet.

Although the 2008 SEMA show is almost two months away, tuners seem to be offering previews of more and more surprises day by day. After Renntech unveiled their customized Mercedes GLK, today the Japanese tuner Asi released a preview of its TETSU Bentley Continental GTR.
The vehicle will be produced in a very limited series of just 29 units, so it is clear that we will not see this car every day. The kit consist in a carbon fiber hood, a big front grill, re-designed front bumper fitted with daytime running lights LEDs, new side skirts, a big rear wing and new custom built alloy wheels. The big surprise is under the hood, where the 6.0-liter W12 engine has been boosted to an astonishing 800 hp. More details when the official information will be released.
One of the most powerful and exclusive cars on earth, the Continental GT will receive a new restyling kit from the well known tuning house, Wald International. They are “guilty” with quite some styling and performance kits for almost every major luxury car brand on the market.
The new kit touched by Wald gives a more aggressive look to the Continental GT by adding larger and more angular front intakes with separate brake ducts and a lower splitter. A slightly wider side-sill is added to the rear side skirts which features Wald’s signature, shark-gill extractor vents behind the rear wheels. Aside from the spoiler at the back of the car, the kit builds on the Continental GT’s basic look, adding aggressive styling to match the powerful engine under the hood. The new kit will be launched later this year.
As we are used to, Project Kahn unveiled another masterpiece based on the Bentley Continental GT, called the GTS ”Black Edition”. The car features a re-designed front bumper, new side sills and a rear boot spoiler. At the interior the vehicle features a leather upgrade, gloss piano fascia panels and a steering wheels featuring the same gloss piano finish or, at customer’s choice, a carbon fiber finish.

At the 78th Geneva International Motor show 2008, Zagato Atelier takes great pleasure in introducing the Bentley GTZ, the latest in a long line of collaborations with the very best British car manufacturers over the Milanese Atelier ’s 89 years history.
Following on from the recent presentations of the Ferrari 575GTZ in 2006 and the Maserati GS Zagato at the Villa D’Este in 2007, the Bentley GTZ is a neo-classic Zagato interpretation of the style of a British GT.
The project was conceived during a discussion between Dr. Ing. Franz Josef Paefgen, CEO of Bentley Motors Limited and Dr. Andrea Zagato, President of Zagato at the Pebble Beach Concours D’Elegance in 2006. At a ‘Tribute to Zagato’ presentation, Zagato showed a selection of 50’ 60’s models, near by the recent berlinettas presented during the last 3 years. Dr. Paefgen was struck by the beauty of those cars and reminded of the historical significance of the art of the Carrozzeria (coachbuilders) which was both being maintained and carried forward by Zagato.
