If you were enticed by Zagato's take on the Bentley Continental GT (pictured above), rumor has it Carrozzeria Touring Superleggera has a version of its own in the works.
Anticipated to be unveiled at the upcoming Geneva Motor Show in two months' time, Touring's coachbuilt Bentley is slated to be based on the convertible Continental GTC, and could borrow its underpinnings from the upcoming GTC SuperSports.
Like Zagato's Continental GTZ, the second coachbuilt Continental reportedly received support from Crewe. Since its revival, the Carrozzeria gave us such Maserati-based creations as the A8 GCS and Quattroporte Bellagio Fastback, and was recently rumored to be working on a custom Ferrari design as well.

this is the car version of a rich, pretty woman who gets terrible plastic surgery.

I don't care...it's got two ugly lumps in the roof.
And no Dagmars on the front bumper.

It looks like a Bentley that is trying to out-Jaguar a Jaguar.
There are some odd things there... but not everything is bad.
I like the roof shape. Zagato always does a nicely compound-curved double-bubble roof.
Mostly it is the odd front and rear treatments that go a bit nuts, where the middle of the car looks pretty good.

How much is this going to be in relation to the Brooklands? I'd so much rather have one of those instead.

I don't think anyone read the article. It's not about the OLD Zagato Bentley in the picture, but a new coachbuilt one...
