Customers can order the coupe or convertible with either engine. Both engines work through an eight-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission that snaps off quick, smooth shifts. The same engine has been tuned up to 650 hp in the Speed model, and we estimate it can reach 60 in as little as 3.1 seconds. The more expensive 6.0-liter W-12 engine produces 626 horsepower in non-Speed models and can motivate a coupe to 60 mph in 3.3 seconds. Our testing revealed that the 4.0-liter V-8, which makes 542 horses, can launch the 4926-pound coupe to 60 mph in 3.4 seconds. Updated versions of the existing V-8 and W-12 engines that powered the previous-generation Continental GT provide muscle-car performance. And while we like the wind in our hair as much as anyone, we'd choose the coupe because the arching roofline ties together the car's style so elegantly we find it irresistible. It's only at very high speeds the W-12 engine's increased horsepower makes a difference. Bentley's V-8 is a finely polished gem that gives up peak horsepower to the W-12 but makes for a coupe that's virtually as quick and agile in real-world conditions. We prefer the Continental GT coupe, and we'd stick with the standard twin-turbo V-8 engine.
