Test Driver Ratings & Comments
Acceleration comments	In Sport tranny mode with ESC off and power braking to 3,000 rpm, the Continental GT V8 goes into some kind of launch mode, jumping off the line and banging home shifts even harder. Yes, the V8 is faster than the W12 -- sounds better, too. Manual shifting is via steering-column-mounted paddles or console lever (pull back for downshifts). Does not hold gears to rev limiter. Does blip throttle on downshifts.
Braking comments	Good but not great braking, especially considering this is a supercar with very expensive brakes. Firm pedal but long travel. Firming up the dampers made zero difference. Lots of nosedive. First stop was shortest at 111 feet. Fifth stop (out of 6) was longest at 113 feet.
Handling comments	Skid pad: Really punishes the outside front tire, massively rolling over on itself. Steering is quite light, and the amount of understeer and the sensitive throttle makes it easy to overshoot the arc. Slalom: Thought the V8 version of the Continental GT would handle better (although it's only 52 pounds lighter than the W12 model). But there's too much roll softness, even with the adjustable dampers set to full stiff. Steering isn't particularly precise. This is a heavy beast, and it understeers far sooner than you'd expect it to. But, it also stays very controlled, which is good. And you can get it to power-on oversteer (despite all-wheel drive) if you whack the throttle wide open at just the right time.
