Whether the color red makes you feel energized and excited or comfortable and secure, our paint palette has the perfect shade for you.
Sleek, efficient, and equipped with the phenomenal new Ultra Performance Hybrid V8 powertrain, the Continental GT Mulliner is the luxurious pinnacle of the Continental GT range. With a wide array of hides and paints to choose from, why not make a statement with a splash of color?
Historically, red was the first color developed for use in painting and dyeing and our ancestors created different shades from clay, dried insects, and berries. The bright, yet warm color has a deep emotional connection to us as humans, yet we can all have very different reactions to red.
For you, a Bentley in red may evoke feelings of excitement and energy – especially when you consider that psychologists believe that the color raises our heart rate. This could also be why people associate a fiery shade with love, lust, and passion. The good news is that our core selection of paint colors, plus the extended range and the Mulliner Paint range, provides a full spectrum for you to choose from.
YOUR PERSONAL STATEMENT
Dragon Red II, as seen on the Continental GT Mulliner (pictured above), is a timeless and popular choice. Bright enough to appear sporty, the searing shade is eye-catching; however, as arresting as it may be, it also provides a distinguished presence, making it a preference for those that value feelings of both passion and grandeur.
The palette also includes both brighter and deeper shades of red. Specially designed to accentuate the curves of our cars, the striking St James Red is available as both solid and pearlescent paints. Similarly, Candy Red delivers everything its name suggests: a red-hot combination of ingredients that creates a satisfying, almost liquid effect. The Pearlescent version is toned down, while retaining the eye-catching visual impact, meaning you have a choice no matter your emotional tie to the color.
The deep-toned metallic or satin Cricket Ball is inspired by the traditional rich red of a leather cricket ball. Freckled with scorched golden undertones harnessing an intense depth, this chestnut red has a profound warmth along with a sense of raw power. The deepest, richest reds, Claret and Burgundy also generate feelings of an elegant presence inspired by warming tones.
RED THAT MAKES IT TRULY YOURS
To ensure you experience the shade of red that truly represents your personality and taste, we recommend working with our Mulliner team to create a bespoke color. Using color matching, you can provide a color of your choice, such as an item of clothing or a shade of nail varnish, and a sample paint panel will be created for you to approve. The only limit is your imagination.
