The Conti GT Speed is a quilted cruise missile that conjures a slipstream wide enough for an entire interstate to glide behind.

At the helm, scenery blurs, but a serene cabin and velvety ride betray the velocity. 5,000 pounds dance in corners and 10-piston calipers put the kibosh on forward momentum. Anything you ask of it invites a seemingly effortless and convincing answer.

And when 650 horsepower and 664 lb-ft of torque from a twin-turbo 12-cylinder isn’t enough of a reminder that you bought the big gun, there’s always this wicked red on red color scheme to drive the point home.
