2 questions .

I was curious to know 2 things actually to help me start making my desicion towards my next car.
The first thing i wanted to know before i start looking into a Bently GT is will i be able to find one that is a 6 speed manual transmission?
And the second thing i would like to know is whether or not i could order a 911 turbo in GT3 grey (not sure if thats what the color is called but i love it)?

Cheers,

Paul.

Shame indeed. Love your thinking - a 6-spd GT would be perfect!

if there was a 6spd Gt theres no doubt in my mind that is exactly what i would buy. Black on Black.

IMHO the Bentley is kind of a big, heavy car for a manual. Kind of like getting a manual Cayenne Turbo. Why?

Because only lady boys and soccer moms drive automatics?

I can never associate a manual gearbox to a Bentley, its about luxury and most luxury cars at that segment have manual as a standard feature. If you want something as a Daily car with manual gearbox your better of with a Panamera S/4S or an M5. You can order the 911 in GT3RS Grey but it will cost you 5,000-5,500 for that extra and i think it will look unique especially with red interior

Sounds like you should order a Paint to Sample 2011 Turbo (non S) and get a manual. Be warned, it wont be easy. Few and Far between.

Remarkably I have 2 Turbo (non S) available. I was shocked to see them in my inventory let alone, exist.
