These are avid collectors and enthusiasts, with a taste for the construction of special car, to be the basis for projects such as the Bentley Continental Flying Star by Touring. Just like the Touring Superleggera contacted in early 2008. An initial process of creating an interesting appears on the design parameters, the proportion of vehicle concepts and – last but not least, the feasibility and technical factors. Many of the concept stage to implementation have been shared with the client, who contributed his own ideas and tastes to personalize the project and create a single vehicle. The basic idea was formed by a desire to diversify the range of very successful Bentley Continental models, and explore new concepts.
Transformation of a 2-door coupe, extend the roof line and expanding the internal dimensions, leading to a concept known as a shooting brake: a sports car with enough room to join the hunting party or a golf tournament with elegance and efficiency. Touring Superleggera explore the same area in 1966, produce prototypes Flying Star II Lamborghini extraordinary. That is a dramatic interpretation of a sports car based on a newly designed 2-volume, dynamic performance savings. Flying Star is the reference parameters through sporting elegance, applied to many famous car company since early 1926.
