Hamann Imperator - Click above for a high-res gallery
A few months ago, Hamann Motorsport previewed its tuning program for the Bentley Continental GT and GT Speed (http://www.autoblog.com/2009/01/05/coming-soon-hamann-tuning-for-the-bentley-continental-gt-and-gt/), and now they have released full details and photos.
Dubbed "Imperator" (sorry, Isdera (http://www.carpassion.com/en/forum/showthread.php?p=24203)) Hamann's version of Bentley's coupe features an aggressive aero kit including a new front and rear fascia, side skirts, extensions over both sets of wheels and a rear wing. From there, customers can choose a variety of sizes of forged wheels, lowering options, a stainless steel exhaust system, and an upgraded engine management system that boosts the bi-turbo W12 to well over 600 horsepower.
The interior gets the full treatment as well, with a new 3-spoke steering wheel and carbon fiber, leather, and ultra-suede accents. Full details in the press release after the jump.
