How well does the bentley continental GT handle?

I have been considering purchasing a bentley continental or rolls royce phantom due to a new high paying job. My cousin claims that that the bentley drives like a honda. Is this true or is he just making up stories?|||I have to say it depends on where you're driving it.





On dry paved roads, it drives nicely. I caught myself almost losing the rear end on high speed turning, but that was expected.





As for snow covered roads, I had a problem with low traction and the ABS system overbraking itself.





My suggestion would be go for a test drive. And personally, I'd recommend the Rolls, since I think they drive better and are better looking.|||Speed handles ok, better for straight line acceleration. Not exactly a 911 in the corners, but a great car

|||Considering that a GT weighs 2350kg its handling is not too bad. This is due to having ESP, four wheel drive and self-levelling air suspension. The new Speed model is the best handling car in the range and is also the fastest ever road going Bentley with a top speed of 203mph thanks to its 600bhp W12 engine. As well as this it also boasts whooping 420mm carbon-ceramic brakes, the largest in the world.
