Apparently impervious to the tumultuous economy, Bentley has unveiled their newest addition to their luxurious line-up, the Bentley Azure T. Officially scheduled to make its inaugural debut at the LA Auto show next week, Bentley apparently decided to drop the curtain a little early. Intended to join the royal Bentley family as the super high performance cousin, the Bentley Azure T features a twin-turbo V8 capable of producing 500-horsepower and 450 pounds-feet of torque. Available in 42 different exterior colors and 25 distinct interior hides, the Azure T comes standard equipped with 20-inch bright-finish alloy wheels and a fully-automated retractable hood. Wisely assuming their target demographic probably has produced several platinum-selling rap albums yet still lives in the same neighborhood he grew up in, Bentley has also ensured that the Azure T is impervious to assault from mischievous kids by equipping it with a fully retractable hood ornament.
