Bentley S3 E concept

The Bentley S3 E concept from Bentley Boys USA combines the original body from a 1964 Bentley S3 with a long list of modern additions. Under the hood, the car gets a new 4.4-liter BMW V8 engine as well as a 5-speed ZF BMW automatic transmission. On the surface, the Bentley sports a new custom-made stainless exhaust pipe with two rear mufflers and double tips, in addition to forged 20” rims. The car rides low, and the new look is mean.Automotive engineer Arturo Alonso and his colleagues plan to produce three Bentley S3 E’s in total, releasing each eight months apart. The price is estimated at $150,000. Not bad in our book.
