  Now that I'm done ranting, I had no idea this lovely antique still had a 4-speed automatic transmission. My goodness there is a car is about to hit the market with an 8-speed and the Bentley just getting rid of it's 4-speed! VW should have done this update years ago! M | |

| Re: 2007 Bentley Arnage gets power boost In reading the entire article they've really made a lot of little changes for 2007 in addition to the powertrain. All of this should keep the old girl fresh for a few more years! M |

For this reason Bentley’s engineering team opted to introduce the latest six-speed ZF automatic transmission to the Arnage range. This state-of-the-art system offers two further ratios than the previous gearbox and has several key advantages over its predecessor: That is from the WorldCarFans article. This from thecarconnection.com: That means the Arnage T, the most powerful model, now delivers an even 500 hp and a stump-pulling 738 pound-feet of torque. The twin-turbo, 6.75-liter V-8 now mates to a modern six-speed ZF automatic, rather than the old and antiquated four-speed on last year's Arnage. Believe me I was shocked too! M | |
