The Enus Paragon R is a grand tourer featured in Grand Theft Auto Online as part of The Diamond Casino & Resort update.
Influence[]
The Paragon R is based on the third generation Bentley Continental GT by its overall design. The front bumper seems to be derived from the BMW M3 (F80) and BMW M4 (F82/F83), while the headlights were most likely taken from modern Porsches, such as the Porsche 991. The tail lights and rear chrome trim might be based on the Lagonda Taraf.
Liveries[]
- The "Digital Sprunk" livery is loosely based on ones from the 2019 M-Sport Bentley Team Continental GT3.
Design[]
The Paragon R features a build similar to the Cognoscenti Cabrio, being a large coupé with aerodynamic design and two doors. On the front, a small central intake can be seen surrounded by coloured separations forming a trapezium, followed by two other intakes of a slightly larger size and a carbon-fibre bottom. The upper area of the car features a mesh grille with a chrome surrounding, along with a set of dual stacked circular lamps within a circular light strip, and dual turn signals. The bonnet has a trapezium-shaped formation in front of the windscreen and bears the manufacturer emblem on the front.
The sides of the car are characterized by the ridges on the upper areas of the wheel arches, as well as vented front fenders, slightly extended rear fenders and plastic-like skirts at the bottom. On the greenhouse area, plastic trims can be seen around the windows, along with a plastic strip for the windscreen wipers and black side mirror supports.
The rear of the car features a concave panel with a small boot lip, where a chrome strip can be seen between the tail lamps, bearing the "ENUS" lettering on it and the manufacturer emblem below. A section for the license plate can be seen on the lower centre, while the bottom has a plastic bumper with two open sections for the dual exhaust tubes.
The vehicle uses its own "New Muscle White" interior; it reuses the same features from the "Specter" interior, but the dashboard if flattened and has a more rectangular passenger glovebox compartment. The dials are also reused from the Specter, but the analog speedometer replaces the fuel/temperature gauges on the left, and the centre is occupied by a digital display.
The primary colour is applied on the body, while the secondary colour is applied on the mirror shells and the interior stitching. A trim colour is also available for the dashboard, steering wheel, doors, seats and the optional roll-cage's paddings. Its wheels are unique, featuring split five-spoke rims with bolts around the centre and wrapped in low-profile tyres.
Performance[]
The Paragon R excels in the Sports class and has a great amount of speed coupled with its smooth handling, especially at weaving through congested traffic. And with further upgrades, the Paragon R can prove itself to be a worthy competitor.
While the engine model is not entirely clear, it seems to emulate the Continental GT's W12 engine, given the six protruding carbon-fibre details on each cam cover. It powers all four wheels in an equal distribution, through a 8-speed gearbox. The engine sound is similar to the ones on the Windsor and its four-door, convertible variant.

Oversights[]
- Statistically, the Paragon R has 8 gears by default[1]. This causes problems when one upgrades the car's transmission, which adds one extra gear. As it reaches top (ninth) gear, it loses the ability to downshift itself. Therefore, unless the player manually enters reverse, they are likely going to have trouble accelerating on the next start. This also applies to the Toros, Brutus and the Paragon R (Armored).
- Originally, the vehicle lacked a trim colour option in mod shops, being always set to black (a trait also shared with the armoured variant). This was changed in The Diamond Casino Heist update.
Radio Stations[]
- In Grand Theft Auto Online, the default radio stations are grouped by genre. The Paragon R uses the "Jazz" group which plays WorldWide FM.
Events[]
- Could be won from the Lucky Wheel in the Casino during the Weevil Week event.
Trivia[]
- The name Paragon refers to something of perfect or high-tier quality. This is most likely a reference to Bentley’s successful reputation in high-end vehicles, which are known to excel in both performance and luxury.
- The Paragon R is one of few cars in the game that sounds a chime when the engine is ignited. The chime can be heard when starting the car in first-person.
- The cinematic preview on the Rockstar Games Social Club features a livery that is not available in-game.
