I doubt the old retired guy who would have been the owner could give a toss about traffic light grand prix's!!

He was probably using 1st gear, 10% throttle and thinking to himself:

"Look at that kid in his $15,000 car trying to race me

I'm going to go home, sip on some $5000 cognac, smoke a $2000 cigar and make love to my 18 year old nubile young wife"

think i saw a bently in parking on victoria ave chatswood on the weekend was mesmorised.

can somebody show me the bently logo or a pic of the new ones

looked like a REALLY beefy 350z kinda thing

was actually wondering what they thought they were doing parking a million dollar car in the middle of chatty though

My old man went shopping for a conti GT... they are ****ing cheap at around $280k from memory (note, an Arnage T is around $600k).

They are majorly pimpin... but handle like a fridge on a cloud of air and they aint that quick at all. I'd guess a low 13 1/4 mile.

Too slow for his liking, so he picked up a cheaper, and a helluvalot faster AMG E55

was actually a youngish guy (mid to late 20's)

I heard his induction noise and engine starting to roar. even if he wasn't full throttle he still lost teh TLGP...

isn't that a DTM model which is purposely powered up and lightened for track work? (like the M3 CSL)

i saw one a few months back parked in northbridge plaza carpark. dont know about him but i would be petrified of trolley dents... if he uses that car as the shopping car, id hate to see his sunday car!

[gatty]

any pics?

Your victory means nothing. If you've seen one actually trying to go fast it would make your panties bunch up.

I thought the car when running economy the Turbo were shut off. When pressing the Sport mode the turbo is activated. I watched this on Top gear review and i think this is how it goes.

You've just described all turbo cars off boost.

The Continental GT is one of those superdooper cars like a Murcielago or Vanquish - sounds like a Supermarine Spitfire on the road.
