    I am typically not all wild about "black on black" vehicles, but this particular one has grown on me...

    Just replace that Goodyear rubber with a set of Avon whitewalls, and this car would be perfect!

    In a Rolls-Royce, once does not merely show up to the party...

    They arrive!

    This one would be perfect for somebody with kids, as it has a child distraction system with headrest-mounted screens; Great for long road trips!

    That vent-looking thing in the center of the ceiling is part of the automatic climate control system. It allows the system to read the temperature outside the vehicle so the air-conditioner and heater can adjust accordingly...

    The Ghost is a prime example of a fake, BMW-era "Rolls-Royce"!

    NOTE:
    I believe this one is a 2015 model...

    And seriously, somebody remind me what is the point of that aluminum bonnet?!?!

    It’s one of few I’d ever have an interest in owning.

    Not that it matters because I’ll never own one.

    If I hit the $500M jackpot one day I’ll buy us both a Rolls.

    I'm not wild about the Honey Gold exterior color, but this is still a nice '79 Silver Wraith II!

    Nice thread Charlie. I went to the 2011 Motor Trend Auto Show in Las Vegas. It was at the one of the casinos on the strip. They had a new Rolls Royce Silver Shadow, I believe that was the model, on the floor. Beautiful car. Talking to the factory rep, he told me that one, just one, wheel cost over 70,000 USD. Gulp...................

    Made from a solid block of very high dollar very dense aluminum. ..

    There's no such thing as a new Silver Shadow...

    Last one was made in 1980!

    Also, no Rolls-Royce made after 2003 is a true Rolls-Royce. All 2004-newer "Rolls-Royce" models are just BMW in drag...

    They have BMW engines, and even BMW's awful iDrive system!
