Taking the most prestigious automobiles and turning them into something else is what German tuner Mansory is good at. Fortunetely, while they have added some sport character to the this W12 Bentley Continental GT, it's still looks good, which is more than we can say about the Ferrari F12-based "Stallone" creature we showed you yesterday.
This project is called the Sanguis, and is also making its official motor show debut in Geneva today. The bespoke sportscar look doesn't really offend us when applied to the GT coupe, though that might be because we've seen rappers butcher this car in the past.

Mansory chose to give the Bentley a wide body look, increasing it by 50 mm at the front and 60 mm at the rear. They also added a carbon fiber bonnet, front grilled and side blades, plus a din spoiler made from the same material.

As for the 6-liter W12 engine under the bonnet, this has been tuned to 662bhp (672 PS), with torque output now topping out at 780 Nm (575 lb-ft).

The customization process would not be complete without 22-inch alloy wheels and a bespoke red leather interior. They also created one of the most interesting engine covers, a combination of carbon fiber and cherry red lacquer that makes it shine like a jewel.

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
