This Zagato Bentley Continental GTZ seems to prove the point that Continentals are for riff-raff. This sort of modification certainly puts the price well into the Brooklands range, but the footballer crowd will likely eat up the rather unique looks of this modified Bentley Continental GT Speed. Exterior changes aren’t offensive or flashy, but they certainly appeal to those with just a little more new money than the typical Continental buyer.

Love it or hate it, we’re just glad to see the coachbuilders are alive and well. Without these interesting one-of-one creations, the Geneva show would be rather boring. Let us know if you like the smooth shape of this GTZ or if you’d rather have the regular Continental GT Speed in the comments section after you’ve had a chance to explore our collection of live images.

Dress the model in hunter camo, and watch her scowl.

Yeah, that’s a great way to attract attention!

visually, I’d say it’s an improvement over stock.

@ john,
clearly you have a bad taste in cars. the car looks horrible… the huge grille, the paint job and the rear light are all wrong. hell, from the back it looks like the TVR tucson with lancia thesis backlights. even the models outfit looks funny. what are they amazon army women.

I’d much rather have a “regular” GT Speed over this, or a Brooklands if they’re in the same price range. (The Brooklands is the most gorgeous car in Bentley’s lineup, in my opinion.)

[…] historic, and potentially quite valuable, this 1965 Zagato-bodied Lancia Flavia is nonetheless pretty […]

There are some interesting lines w/ the new design. They remind me of the 60’s vintage spears which run down the hood of the S1,S2 & S3 cars. There are parts of the design I like, the revised front end is OK but they need to loose the amber side markers. The rear end leaves a bit to be desired.

FYI - The Brooklands is the most expensive coupe produced by Bentley Motors at around $450K+
