Picture a Continental GT dressed like a runway model: lacquered paint, precise stitching, and details that only a house like Mulliner could dream up. That’s exactly what Bentley has unleashed with its new Bespoke Series for the Continental GT S, a limited run that reads more like haute couture than a car launch.
A color palette that reads like couture
Only 100 examples will be built, and each comes exclusively as either the Continental GT S Coupe or the GT S Convertible. Buyers can choose from six curated exterior finishes created in Bentley’s design studio: Bright Ruby Red, Manuka Orange, Spectral Verdant, Midnight Prism Pearlescent, Snow Quartz, and Salerno Blue. A painted center stripe runs the car’s flanks in Beluga with a subtle pearl effect, an instant visual signature you will notice from across a parking lot.
There’s a lot more than paint here. Mulliner dresses the Conti with self-leveling wheel caps and 22-inch black wheels for extra presence. Comfort seats wear bespoke perforated patterns. Animated welcome lighting and the rotating display extend the theater into the cabin. Dark-tint chrome trim and a three-tone hide scheme—Jet Black as the dominant hide with Beluga as the counterpoint—tie the interior to the exterior in surprisingly theatrical fashion.
- Six curated exterior colors
- Beluga center stripe with pearl effect
- Custom interior embroidery and matching steering wheel marker
- Dual-finish veneers with dark chrome pinstripes
Little touches matter. Each paint color reappears inside: the steering wheel marker, embroidery, gear selector, and seat details all echo the exterior hue. Mulliner swaps standard veneers for a dual-finish approach that pairs painted sections—matched to the exterior—with Beluga panels, separated by fine dark chrome pinstripes. Every car is individually numbered on the fascia and treadplates and ships with Mulliner seat tags, a color swatch display showing all six options, and a bespoke fitted car cover.
Bentley hasn’t published official pricing for the Bespoke Series. Expect the sticker to sit above the already lofty standard Continental GT S cost. For context, the GT S starts at roughly €279,000 for the coupe, with the convertible typically adding about €27,900.
Under the skin, the GT S is a performance-minded grand tourer. Positioned between the GT and the GT Speed, it makes 671 horsepower and 686 pound-feet of torque, or about 930 Newton-meters, from an electrified V8. That delivers a 0 to 60 miles per hour time of about 3.3 seconds and a top speed near 191 miles per hour, limited by the right tires. The drivetrain is sharpened with an electronic limited-slip differential, rear-wheel steering, a 48-volt active anti-roll system, and torque vectoring tuned for more incisive responses.
This release is a reminder that in the world of hyper-luxury cars, customization has become a narrative device. The Mulliner Bespoke Series takes that idea and runs with it, wrapping performance hardware in a seasonally minded, highly individualized package. For collectors and enthusiasts who want something rare and unmistakably Mulliner, this is the sort of car that announces itself without shouting.

Looks gorgeous but is all that bespoke detail worth the huge markup? Curious about resale, maintenance... doesn't seem practical, but damn it looks good

Wow Mulliner went full couture on a GT, it's ridiculous in the best way. 100 cars only? I'd camp outside the factory lol 😅
