Bentley Continental GT Black Bison Edition by Wald

Posted Sun Jul 6 2008 6:26 AM by Ralph Hanson

Japanese tuning house Wald International has a wide range of styling and performance kits for nearly every major luxury car brand on the market. It’s no surprise the company has turned its hand to one of the most exclusive and powerful cars on the planet, then, and the resulting restyle shows some characteristic Wald touches along with a flair unique to the Continental GT mega-coupe.

The new kit offers a significantly more aggressive look for the Continental GT owner not satisfied with the reserved yet muscular look Bentley imbued the car with at the factory. Adding larger, more angular front intakes with a separate brake duct and a lower splitter, the front of the car looks much more purposefully fast than the stock car. A slightly wider side-sill treatment flows to the rear side skirts, which receive Wald’s trademark shark-gill extractor vents behind the rear wheels.

A custom diffuser under the rear end looks like more than just a pretty piece of molding, and coupled with the bootlid spoiler, should help improve downforce at speed. The Continental GT’s front extractor just behind the front wheel is left untouched.

Aside from the spoiler at the back of the car, the kit builds on the Continental GT’s basic look, adding aggressive styling to match the powerful engine under the hood. The kit is still in the development stage is expected to be released later this year.

Let's just put it this way, it's pretty obvious why they named it the "Bison Edition"...
One of the ugliest, most vulgar tuner editions of the Continental ever created!
