When I think of the Bentley Continental lineup, I have to admit that I am not a huge fan. I think they're great products but if it were my money on the line, it's just not what I'd spend it on.

If I were to take the plunge though, there are only two models of interest: the V8 S and the Supersports.

Here's the thing though. The Supersports hasn't existed post refresh. So the question has been "When will we see it?"
