    Beauty. I have said before in many other threads that Black on Red is my favorite color combo, and it only looks good on a car that can pull it off.

    I am still waiting to see a 599 in this combo, :)

    Congrats Jeff!

    My only wish is that the GT and GTC came with ventilated seats like the Flying Spur.

    Jeff, congratulations, GREAT spec! Did you work with Matthew at Euro?

    Our car is coming in January, can't wait. One of the great things about the car is that it looks good with the top up, unlike so many converts.

    Cheers, Will

    Wow, I am shocked at the positive responses for the red. Before it came in when I told anyone the colors they thought I was crazy. I think its good to take advantage of the choices Bentley gives you instead of going with the same stuff on everything else. They have a configurator online that basically lets you check out tons of different colors/woods/stitching combos so its neat to build it exactly how you want.

    How are the backseats compared to the coupe? Same size? Rear headroom with the top up?

    Actually Kevin is my guy but I know matthew well. What colors did you spec out? Too bad I can't get Ferraris like I can Bentley's. One of these days I need to get on that damn list! Maybe if I can drop your name I can skip a few years!

    It has power but not in the same league. I have had the 65 now for over a year and still smile when I nail it. That car from a power standpoint is awesome.

    Congrats! Love the color combo as the others have stated. I love the interior...sets it apart from all the others! At least with the GTC you have the AWD. Someone I know had an SL65 and sold it saying it had "too much power" spinning the rear wheels around turns too much! When is too much power a bad thing haha.

    A client of mine has the GT coupe in a light blue. I know this is a Ferrari forum and all but Im sorry to say the paint quality of Bentley's is amazing. Very little orange peel and many layers! Ferrari paint is just too soft and quite thin! Bentley Paint + Black = Amazing! As a detail fanatic, make sure the new GTC receives the proper TLC and that finish will stay new for much longer! Black is hard to upkeep but when you stand back when its cleaned...its a sight to behold and drool over!

    jeff, that color combo is magnifacint! And btw my dad has his gtc and already put 200 miles on the car in one weekend! He loves his car and i hope you love your car to. BTW who ever asked about the backseat room, headroom. etc... I should know because i sat in the back for an hour on our way up to lansing! The backseat is smaller than the gt's and feels more squished unlike the gt's comfy backseat. And the headroom is appauling in the back seat! I hate it! I have a long neck, but hey, its uncomfertable. My dad has a nail in his tire of his gtc. Should he go to belle tire or bentley or my dads specialized mechanic?

    The car looks amazing!

    Vic, I would go to the dealer. If he asks in the right way I'm sure they would fix it for free.

    Black on red looks so rich on that car. Unbelivably nice. It wouldn't have been the first combo that I looked at, but man that car really pulls it off. I assume that the roof is black also?
