Red signifies performance models for Bentley. This is probably a 2002 with its reworked Rolls Royce engine originally created in 1959 from GM engine designs, and uses a GM four speed auto. Massive V8 at 6.75 liters, fuel injected giving 400 hp and 619 pound-feet of torque to move this 5500 lb. luxury express to a 5.9-second 0-to-60 time, and 155 mph tops.
I had not seen this car before, had to chase it down to get these pics. Turns out that a bunch of these were built about ten years ago but the run was stopped because the average warranty cost was about $5000, some or a lot of it because the roofs leaked. More power and longer than the common FourTwo Smart cars. Learn more at wikipedia.
Z8s were built 1999 to 2003, cost $129k, had lots of aluminum and the M5 V8 engine, six speed transmission. More info at Wiki. See link for Mosing Motorcars at right.
