Rolls-Royce Phantom
When the Phantom was launched, not everyone was taken with its unusual looks. And yet, it went on to enjoy tremendous success, setting the standard for ultra-luxury sedans. Despite its more modern mechanics, the Phantom is built according to the brand’s superior standards, and hands-on craftsmanship is noticeable throughout the vehicle. This Rolls is equipped with a 6.7L V12 that produces 453 horsepower and is matched to an 8-speed automatic transmission. For the first time since they were introduced, the Phantom Coupe and Drophead Coupe have been significantly modified, both mechanically and esthetically for 2013.
