2006 Bentley Continental Flying Spur Reviews, Pricing & Specs
Write a reviewWho knows what inspired Bentley to dub its latest variation on the Continental as the Flying Spur when it came out in 2006. Regardless, this powerful sedan packs a formidable 6.0 L, 552 hp W12 powertrain with 6 speed automatic transmission. The Continental Flying Spur comes in one AWD trim.
Gas mileage comes out to a liberal 11 mpg in the city and 18 on the highway. This car has 4 doors, seats 5, and offers an extensive list of standard features that includes sunroof, air conditioning, power windows, power door locks, power/leather seats, cd player, navigation system, ABS brakes, traction control, and stability control. Top speed hits 195 mph. The Flying Spur has the giddyup to go from 0-60 mph in just under 5 seconds.
On the positive side, drivers enjoy the elegant interior, good handling, and power. On the negative side, critics feel that the Flying Spur has a heavier driving feel than it should. Overall, if you want a powerful status symbol that looks a little different from the competition, pick up a Continental Flying Spur.
