The first press day of the Frankfurt Motor Show is tomorrow, two days before the event opens its doors to the public, but even before that a few of the cars which will be show are being scooped.
As Bentley's display people were setting p their booth, Youtuber SellerieCimes has managed to film their latest jewel, the new Continental GTC V8 S.

This latest jewel is all about being that little bit more special. Compared to the regular V8, the S has 21 more British horses of power for a grand total of 521 bhp (389 kW) at 6,000 rpm and 680 Nm (502 lb-ft) at 1,700 rpm.

Aside from the power boost, the S version comes with a 10mm lowered ride height, new dampers settings and a sportier stability control system and of course those new 20-inch alloys.

In short, it's a better version of the car every football player or rapper wants, a foregone sales success for Bentley.

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.
