Actually, the Bentley Continental GT 1 generation is the epitome of understatement. Low-key design, under the hood of the VW Phaeton's W12 with Turbocharger and a former purchase price of at least 167.000 €. Ingredients that are a guarantee for not seeing a Continental on every corner. But if you want it even more exclusive, and no problem with it really has to be targeted by anyone who should take a closer look at the Tetsu GTR from the Japanese tuner ASI. The vehicle was presented to the Xbox 360 11 over 2008 years ago, but we still find the Tetsu GTR conversion so spectacular that we want to show it to you today.
Continental GT as Tetsu GTR
ASI has designed a complete body package for the posh British that captivates with its deep-drawn front bumper and the incredibly huge radiator grille on the new bonnet and air vents. Maybe the design is a first preview as the successor of the recently released BMW 7er (G11 / G12) could look ^ ^? The apron also shows with additional LED daytime running lights and large air intakes. There are widened front fenders and also the side walls at the back have gone significantly in the width. The widenings are connected by means of large side skirts, including sill swords. And the rear is completely changed. Here you install a fixed rear wing and beyond a huge apron.

The rear bumper shows itself with large air openings on the right and left, a huge rear diffuser, a central sports exhaust system and an LED rear fog light directly below. With this body kit, attention is guaranteed in any case. And if you want, you can also order matching forged rims in 22 inches, which are installed on the presentation vehicle in a typical Japanese bi-color variant in black and gold. The exact dimensions of the three-part in-house ASI alloy wheels are 22 × 10 inches on the front axle and the rear axle is a stately 22 × 11 inches. The wheel set is equipped with 295/25 slippers from Toyo all around. And so that the wheelset sits perfectly in the wheel arch, there was also a significant lowering. A look under the bonnet shows that the conversion is not just a show. The W12 engine with 24K gold engine cover got significantly larger turbochargers, a new intake and also has a specially made sports exhaust system under the sheet metal.

So that everything harmonized with each other a corresponding chip tuning course was not missing and the result is an increase in performance of 560 on huge 800 PS. By the way, the ASI Tetsu GT-R brings to a halt a brake system with 12 pistons and 400 mm large brake discs at least 22 inch rims requires. And the interior is also fully upgraded on request, giving the Tetsu GTR new leather upholstery with a variety of emblems, lots of carbon and, in the case of the 2008 presentation vehicle, decorative embellishments on the bonnet. The Tetsu GTR was then limited to 29 vehicles and if we look at the many pictures on the net, it can be assumed that these 29 copies have probably found their buyers.
