This Bentley replica doesn’t look half bad, based off a Chrysler Sebring, which seems like a decent car for building a replica of a Continental GTC. It’s definitely better than the old Pontiac Fiero’s people are using to build Ferrari and Lamborghini replicas. Was listed on eBay and the auction has already ended, with no bids unfortunately, so we’re not sure if it will ever be completed. However, for the money, this Bentley replica seems like a good car investment if someone can finish it to look exactly like the real deal. The seller claims that he will be finishing the carpet, adding a new windscreen, door mirrors, and a custom dual exhaust with real Bentley tips. Pictures also show authentic Bentley interior pieces, but a dashboard will need to be custom made to fit these. Then it will need the seats upholstered, a new convertible top, sound system, and navigation to make it look 100% genuine.
At a list price of $20,000 USD, this doesn’t seem like a bad deal at all for a Bentley Continental GTC. Could still use another five grand to complete if you were to send it to a custom shop, but there’s no way you could even come close to owning a real Bentley at this price. Sure, you could get a older Sebring for much less, yet replica building is a tough job, and very time consuming. It takes great attention to detail, and years of shop experience to get the body molding done right. So, what’s your thoughts on this Bentley replica? Stud or dud?
*Update: Talked with the seller and the Bentley replica was sold.

Sebring……a decent car…..????
That’s a good one…
I own the real deal. And this sir is far from it….
i would like to know if i supply the car and i would like to know wheare you located. can you email me more info….
This project was just a single custom build, and I talked to the builder through ebay, he sold it to someone overseas I believe. Also, I don’t think he’s continuing with building replica cars anymore.
since my last post, my friend bought one of these kits on ebay from a different supplier and had a body shop do it, came out great!
i think the email address was
bentleykitcar@gmail.com
this guy is right outside of atlanta and easy to work with
my real GTC is still better! Cheers!

Hello,
I would be interested to get a kit Bentley for a Chrysler. Could you give me a price?
Also, do you sell the inside as well?
I am writing you from France.
Thank you for your time.
Hi, we have seen these kits recently on eBay and one almost completed Bentley replica was recently sold. I’d check eBay for now and contact one of those sellers. They might be able to ship to France, but it will probably be expensive because most of these kits are made in the U.S.
LOOKING FOR A REAL SUPPLIER FOR THE BENTLY KIT.
Rich franklins- we are all impressed that you have the real deal. Thank you for making sure we know that. Yes a sebring is a descent car. Its the type of car working people drive, you know the people who went to college and work everyday… We are all excited about your money, that you… inherited? Were Given? I can tell by your comment that you are the type who hasn’t worked for cent of the money that you have.. where’d you get your money? Lottery? Dead relative? Trust fund? C’mon, we all can tell by your arrogance that your Bentley wasnt bought with money you actually made… drugs? Pimp? Dude, you know I’m right! …. btw I’m not a hater, I’d be exactly like you, if everything I owned was handed to me. Seriously I would.. well, not exactly, I mean I guess if Maddy gave me money tomorrow, I’d still have a college degree, and hard work experience behind me.. oh, and I wouldn’t think I was above everyone else..
Hey rich,
Can you tell me the name of the guy or place as I tried that e mail and nothing came back???
Was he in Atlanta???
Does your friend still have car??
can I get his e mail???
Any info would Help…
Hey, I believe the company was sued by Bentley for making these body kits and can no longer manufacture or sell them. I saw a similar thing happen with the Lambo kits.
