2018 Rolls Royce Phantom

The world premiere of the 2018 RR Phantom:








http://www.roadandtrack.com/new-cars...royce-phantom/

Specs: 6.75L twin turbo V12. 563 hp, 664 pounds of torque.
8 speed automatic

Rolls-Royce notes that this architecture is lighter and stiffer than before, but don't think the Phantom is a lightweight now. Both the short- and extended-wheelbase Phantoms weigh nearly 6000 lbs. A full 286 of those pounds is just sound deadening, which Rolls-Royce says helps make the Phantom the quietest car in the world

Inside the Phantom is as spectacular as you'd expect it to be—after all, this is Rolls-Royce's flagship model. Rolls-Royce says the interior is designed to "embrace" its occupants with the nicest leather, wood, and metal available. There are multiple rear-seat configurations too—you can get a "lounge" seat, individual seats with either a foldable or permanent armrest, or a "sleeping seat."

Talk about customization:

In front, Rolls-Royce will finish the dashboard—which its now calling "The Gallery"—with combinations of silk, leather, wood, and metal, but there's a more interesting option. You can actually commission an artist of your choice to create their own dashboard designs. Rolls-Royce worked with various artists to create examples of these custom dashboards, which include one with an oil painting, and one with porcelain roses.

Hmm not huge change in the interior. Exterior looks about the same with minor upgrades.

Not sure why the phantoms are always in the low 200k range while the lesser ghost seems to carry more money on the used market.

Ghost = You can drive yourself.
Phantom = You're driven around in.

Was looking at some features, heated seats is the norm. This thing has heated armrest front and back and lower c pillar.

But other than that I have seen every car on display in DTP just by cruising about in Richmond, thank you very much for collecting them together and get someone to sing a cover for "fuck you".
