The car's exterior is a thing of beauty, with every curve and contour perfectly replicated in miniature form. The car's grille is a standout feature, with a diamond-shaped pattern that catches the eye and sets the tone for the rest of the car. The headlights are also a standout feature, with intricate detailing that is both impressive and realistic.

Moving to the side of the car, we can see the long, flowing lines that give the Continental GTC its signature look. The car's roofline is low and sleek, which gives it a sporty, aerodynamic profile. The car's wheels are also a standout feature, with every detail perfectly replicated, from the intricate spoke design to the branding on the center cap.



Now, let's take a look inside. The interior of the TopSpeed 1/18 Bentley Continental GTC is just as impressive as the exterior, with a level of detail that is hard to believe. With the top down permanently, it is very easy to marvel at the beauty of the interior details and the color scheme screams of opulence and luxury. Topspeed has done a marvelous job indeed.



The diecast is manufactured with resin material which means that unfortunately there are no openings and there is no engine compartment to ogle at. However, the upside is that creases and joints are much smoother and the diecast has a hefty weight to it that gives a premium look and feel.



Overall, the TopSpeed 1/18 Bentley Continental GTC is a must-have for any diecast enthusiast or Bentley fan. The level of detail and craftsmanship that has gone into creating this miniature masterpiece is truly impressive, and it's a testament to the skill and dedication of the TopSpeed team.
