First shown to the world in September 2005, the GTC convertible is aging gracefully behind its signature upright mesh grille (made of plastic these days instead of brass for safety reasons).
這款敞篷車在2005年9月首次登臺亮相。不過在其標志性的垂直網狀格柵背后，這款GTC敞篷車正在優雅地老去。（出于安全原因，現在的散熱格柵基本上不再用黃銅制造，而是改用塑料）。

You hardly need 12 cylinders any more, but it is nice to know they are available for this two-and-three- quarter ton mechanical marvel that is capable of reaching 62 miles per hour in 5.1 seconds and has a top speed of 195 miles per hour.
現在基本上已經用不著12汽缸的發動機了。不過這個自重2.75噸的機械杰作只需5.1秒便可以從靜止狀態加速到62英里/時， 其最高時速高達每小時195英里。

Substantial without being ostentatious, the Bentley fades into the background in Greenwich and Palm Beach and
makes a quiet statement everywhere else.
這款賓利敞篷車皮實而不招搖，不過它們正淡出格林威治和棕櫚灘，在其它某個角落靜靜地訴說自己曾經的榮耀。
