An exclusive Bentley Continental GTC Speed 2025 raised $1.7 million at the Naples Winter Wine Festival in Florida, with the proceeds benefiting the Naples Children & Education Foundation’s programs for underprivileged children in Collier County.
The custom-made convertible features Bentley’s latest Ultra Performance Plug-In Hybrid V8 powertrain, producing an impressive 771 horsepower—more than 100 horsepower over its predecessor. Despite its luxury touring nature, this sophisticated convertible can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in just 3.2 seconds.
With an exclusive Damson exterior paint finish and a Dark Grey Metallic fabric roof, the vehicle features a unique interior combining white leather with secondary Damson leather and silver piping on the seats. Personalized touches include custom Naples Winter Wine Festival sill plates and an exclusive paint finish in Piano White and Damson created by Mulliner, Bentley’s bespoke division.
The winning bid, which represents nearly six times the base price of the GTC Speed at $305,250, included more than just the car. The package featured an exclusive experience during the Monterey Car Week with four nights at The Inn at Spanish Bay, VIP access to The Quail Motorsports Gathering, and privileged entry to the prestigious Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance.
The auction contributed to the most successful year for the festival yet, helping raise over $34 million for the foundation. “Contributing to the community and promoting a sense of purpose are integral to our broader understanding of sustainability,” noted Jun Watanabe, Senior Director of Sales and Operations at Bentley Americas.
This sale marks another milestone in the 25-year history of the Naples Winter Wine Festival, during which more than $336 million has been raised to support its mission of improving the lives of underprivileged children in the region.
