The Bentley Continental Flying Spur is a luxury all-wheel-drive
sedan built in England. The Flying Spur's 6.0-liter W12 engine
produces 552hp and 479 ft/lbs of torque and is paired with a ZF
6-speed automatic transmission with steering-column-mounted
gearshift paddles. The computer-controlled adaptive air suspension
with automatic ride height control includes manual driver
adjustment for ride height and damper settings. Continuous
all-wheel drive, traction control and stability control are
standard equipment. For 2009, the Bentley Continental Flying Spur's
exterior changes include a more upright front grille, larger air
intakes and a sleeker rear bumper. Mechanical changes include
revised spring, anti-roll bar and damper settings, retuned power
steering settings, and a Sport Traction mode for the electronic
stability control. An available sunroof includes a solar panel that
powers ventilation fans when the vehicle is stationary to maintain
interior temperatures. Outfitted in a Glacier White finish over
Burnt Walnut interior, this example rides on 20-inch alloy wheels
wrapped in performance tires. The interior features premium-grade
leather, genuine wood trim used throughout, and diamond-quilted
leather seat facings. It includes a navigation system, Bluetooth,
Sirius satellite radio, multi-zone climate control, power trunk
opening and closing, and heated and ventilated memory power seats
with massaging lumbar. It also comes with a refrigerated bottle
cooler in the rear armrest, a rear reversing camera, radar-based
adaptive cruise control and an iPod/MP3/USB interface stereo system
designed exclusively for Bentley. ** PREVIEW
