Car And Driver have published their "Short Take Road Test" of the 2010 Bentley Continental Supersports. 'The Supersports name sounds quintesÂsentially British, what we expect from the chuffed ironmongers at Bentley. From bonnet to boot it's heavy but down about 170 pounds from the GT Speed. The front seats are deep, stiff, manually adjusted carbon-fiber cocoons lined with leather and diamond-quilted Alcantara. They wear well for a few hours, before back fatigue begins to set in. The rear seats are gone. A glossy carbon-fiber pole stretches across the empty chasm. It could serve as a shoulder-harness mount but is probably there for liability, so gits don't sit where there are no seatbelts.'
