Seven years into production of its Continental GT, and Bentley is now brewing up a... late, late-life facelift for the coupe model keep to suitors interested. As usual, the British (feel free to swap with German) firm's engineers made sure we couldn't see most of the styling updates by covering the car from top to bottom in checkered masking tape.
What we could make out from this video is the new Mulsanne-inspired snout with two large headlamps close to the grille offset by two smaller units on both corners and restyled air vents. In addition, it looks like the car will get revised tail lamps and a reworked apron at the back. Updates to the interior as well as to the W12 engine should also be expected.
The facelifted 2011 Bentley Continental GT in coupe form could make its world debut as early as September at the Paris Show or in mid-November at the LA auto gathering with sales to follow in early 2011.
