Finally closed the deal on my cgt 07'.

It ships to me next week. It took me a while to find the right one.

Glad that is all sorted out and cant wait for it to arrive. Thanks to the many members that have tolerated and answered my questions about buying/owning a bcgt.

Here are some of the photos from the dealer:

the previous owner just bought the chromed grills separately. it originally had the 20" seven spoke chrome wheels but the owner switched it for the five spoke 19". i will keep it as is for a few months and then will tweak the wheels. also looking into the ecu flash and lowering module.

the inside is saddle. btw thanks for all the suggestions to get an 07 instead of an 06.

A nice set of Forgiato's or 360 Forged should do the trick, 22 inch sizes

Come on a Bentley is all about styling and profiling, he is not taking the car to track days. Why not do it big, real big?

Here are the Original Wheels that came on my Diamond Series 07GT.

They are 20"s, I took them off and put 22's on.
