Bentley’s Continental has long been our favorite luxury coupe, and it looks like that title will remain safe through the new year with the introduction of the 2015 Bentley Continental GT Speed.

As far as aesthetics are concerned, the latest iteration of the beloved Continental sees some minor updates – a nice refresh if you will. Under the hood however is a different story. The English auto makers continue to outdo themselves, and this year’s version of the GT is crowned the most powerful production Bentley of all time. So what’s powering this beauty you ask? A 6.0-liter W12 engine pumping out 626 horsepower, a setup that helps the vehicle tear up the asphalt with a 0-60mph time of just 4 seconds. If top speed is your thing, the hard top version of this model is capable of reaching speeds of 206 mph- thanks largely in part to an improved, stiffened suspension system.
