2015 Bentley Continental GT W12 AWD

Perfect Auto Collection Signature Listing2015 Bentley Continental GTVIN SCBFU7ZA2FC044157 | 20,709 milesBentley's own window sticker calls it a refined GT with the soul of a supercar. For once the marketing copy was simply accurate.Why We Acquired This VehicleThe Continental GT is the car that rebuilt Bentley. When it arrived it created a segment that had not existed - a hand-trimmed two-door capable of crossing a continent at speeds that embarrassed sports cars - and it went on to become the most commercially important model in the company's history. This is that car in its second generation, with the twelve-cylinder engine that defined it.This example arrived with its original Monroney label, which is how we know precisely how it was ordered rather than having to guess. It left Crewe at a total of $243,465 against a $203,500 base - nearly forty thousand dollars of specification on a car that needed none of it. The largest single line is the Mulliner order, and the interior was worked through in detail from the steering wheel to the carpet in the boot. The verified appointments are detailed in full below.It is finished in a deep metallic grey over Saffron hide, which is a considerably braver combination than the black-over-black most of these were ordered in - a restrained exterior opening onto a cabin the color of late afternoon light. At 20,709 miles it has been used as intended and looked after while being used.At a GlanceHighlights Mulliner Driving Specification with Alternate Wheel Naim for Bentley Premium Audio Titan Grey Paint Adaptive Cruise Control Interior Style Specification with Contrast Standard Brakes with Red Calipers Veneer Door and Rear Quarter Inserts Wood and Hide 3-Spoke Steering Wheel Ventilated Front Seats with Massage Boot Carpet Matched to Main Hide Concealed Rear Aerofoil Mirror-Matched Burr Walnut Veneer Breitling Clock Exterior: Titan Grey | Interior: Saffron 20,709 miles 6.0-Liter Twin-Turbocharged W12 567 HP and 516 LB-FT 8-Speed ZF Transmission with Quickshift Permanent All-Wheel Drive Original MSRP as Delivered: $243,465 SCBFU7ZA2FC044157+ Additional Factory Options & Features - see the complete equipment list for the full specificationThe Perfect Auto Collection Experience Personalized Video Walkarounds Independent Third-Party Inspections Welcome Nationwide Enclosed Transportation Boutique, Appointment-Level Service Transparent Representation From Start to FinishOur PerspectiveAt Perfect Auto Collection, we do not measure a Bentley by output figures or by the length of its option sheet. We ask a simpler question: does it read as though someone had a clear idea before they started, and would we be proud to keep it in our own collection?This one does. The pattern on the sticker is consistent and deliberate: the Mulliner treatment for the cabin and the stance, the British audio system, and then a run of smaller interior decisions - the wheel, the door inserts, the boot carpet - that cost real money and exist only to make the interior cohere. Nobody orders a boot carpet matched to the main hide unless they are thinking about the whole car. That is the kind of build that still presents beautifully a decade later, which is exactly what this one does.Why Enthusiasts Value This ModelThe Continental GT succeeded because it refused a choice everyone assumed was unavoidable. It is trimmed by hand in Crewe with hand-selected hide and mirror-matched veneer, and it also carries a twin-turbocharged W12 producing 567 horsepower and 516 lb-ft, with all-wheel drive to put it down. The two halves do not compromise each other, and no car before it had managed that combination convincingly.The W12 is what informed buyers now look for specifically. Bentley assembled that engine by hand in Crewe for more than two decades and ended its production in 2024, which closes the set permanently. The twelve-cylinder Continental GT is the definitive version of the definitive modern Bentley, and there will be no more of them.What buyers are looking for among them is specific: a specification with genuine depth rather than a handful of boxes, a color combination chosen rather than accepted, mileage that shows the car was enjoyed without being worn out, and original factory documentation proving how the car was built rather than how it is described. That is why a car's options matter - they are the difference between a listing that claims a car is special and one that can show it.Factory and Vehicle HighlightsMulliner Driving Specification with Alternate WheelMulliner is Bentley's own coachbuilding and personalization house, and its Driving Specification is that division's signature treatment of the car, taken here with the alternate wheel, at $11,865.Why it matters: At nearly twelve thousand dollars it is almost a third of the entire option spend on this car, and it is the line that changes both the cabin and the stance at once - which is why a Mulliner-specified Continental looks and feels different from a standard one before a single other box is considered.Naim for Bentley Premium AudioThe Naim for Bentley system replaces the standard eight-speaker installation with the British hi-fi maker's bespoke Bentley setup, at $7,445.Why it matters: A two-door cabin is a far smaller room than a saloon's, which means the occupants sit close enough to the speakers that the quality of the components matters more than their quantity - this is the rare car where an audio upgrade is heard rather than simply measured.Titan Grey PaintThe exterior was specified in Titan Grey, a metallic finish carrying a $5,600 charge over the standard palette.Why it matters: A dark metallic grey does something black cannot on a body this sculpted - it holds a highlight along the haunches and the shoulder line rather than swallowing them, so the Continental's shape stays legible instead of collapsing into a silhouette.Interior Style Specification with ContrastThe interior style specification adds contrast detailing throug
