My new to me Ghost was dropped off on Monday, this was one of the sickest specs I’ve ever seen that isn’t a black badge car. It was a special commission created by Rolls Royce own designers for their 2019 Pebble Beach display with around $120k in options. Matte/satin white factory paint with cobalt blue interior, white piano wood, blue starlight headliner (pretty cool touch, never seen it with different light color), bespoke audio system, etc. $437k sticker on this one which is the highest I’ve seen for a pre-2021 redesign Ghost without the black badge package. Only 7k miles on it and looks mint inside and out.

Loved the 458 but you just feel like such a boss driving this thing, just need to have a Rolls in the garage at all times.

Congratulations! And I agree with this over a 458.

Looks great! Love what RR is doing these days. Proportions, rear-hinged doors, presence, powertrain, interior design and materials, it all works.

There’s really nothing like it. Drove the new Bentleys and it’s not even close (have not driven a Mulsanne to be fair).

IMO these cars also have the best seat height/position of any car. The suspension is pure magic.

stunning

driving a rolls is still on my automotive bucket list. does it feel big to drive? like it would be hard to maneuver or park? or does it kind of shrink around you once you get going ?

Not at all compared to what you’d expect. It’s surprisingly fast and nimble with lane changes, obviously going around corners it’s going to feel heavy because it is. I feel like it’s similar to driving any large SUV. The Phantom was a different story, I drove a Phantom coupe and it felt like a massive boat and was noticeably slower.

The older I get the more I just want to ride around in comfort and nothing beats a Rolls for that. Hard to describe the feeling of driving it until you do it yourself.

Love the paint. The blue is a bit much, for myself, but still works. Congrats!

I'd run it up to Park City for a few days before the snow arrives.








• you'll dump it by Christmas

I love the bold interior colors, mandarin orange and cobalt blue at the top of my list, mugello red third.

Christmas is a little early, but everything is always for sale at the right price. If I found an epic spec black badge car to replace it I could be convinced…
