Continental Supersports Convertible spyshots
 
I have told about such possibility some time ago and here is a sort of confirmation - article by our friends from GT Spirit with spyshots:

Spyshots: Bentley Continental Supersports Convertible

It appears we dropped the ball with these spy shots taken way back in October. They appear to show a Bentley Continental Supersports Convertible for the first time. Whilst the car has only been rumoured so far, these spyshots appear to show that Bentley are definitely keen on the idea.

The shots were taken by an eagle-eyed Pistonheads reader who posted the shots in October. It definitely appears to be the Supersports Convertible, it has the revised front bumper and bonnet, both of which provide a great deal more cooling for the beefed up engine.

The Supersports Convertible would definitely feature the same W12 Flex-Fuel capable engine with a headline figure of 621bhp and 800Nm of torque.

At a guess, we’d say that the convertible would be revealed at the 2010 Geneva Auto Salon.

I was thinking of this model will come out while watching Jay leno test out the coupe a couple days ago on his site.
Defeats the real purpose of the car.

+1. Then again, it's still a heavy car to start with so a few hundred extra lbs from the 'vert top probably won't make much of a difference.

Very nice spy shots. They are a lot clearer than a lot of other spy shots. Looking forward to this!

They need to bring out the successor to the Continental. It been around forever, I don't even get excited when I see one anymore.

^^^ Wait till this fall or at latest beginning of next year. They are working on Continental successor and it will come out in one year time.

Until then we will be able to enjoy GTC Supersports starting from this Geneva auto show.
