Senior - BHPian | ![]() @ecks, i agree with your points. By being more sportier, i meant the Ghost is for the kind of person who'd rather take the wheel of his Rolls Royce himself than give it to the chauffeur because acc. to reviews the Ghost is more fun to drive than the Phantom. I know you'd hardly find such people in India, but if i had the money, i would't want to see my chauffeur enjoying the 4.8sec to 100 in a Rolls. ![]() Last edited by theragingbull : 11th March 2010 at 19:16. |

It is back in the factory as its a Promotional vehicle. You can have four or five Rolls Royces at the same time depending when you booked it. The time taken to build one is 6-8 months depending on the options chosen. Quote:

![]() Matte chrome ? How can a chrome finish ever be matte ? Chrome is bling and matte i just the opposite. I hope you meant the Silver Mettalic finish. ![]() | |

Distinguished - BHPian ![]() | ![]() I acually quite like this one. The two-tone colour scheme stuff with the silver bonnet is *yook* |

| ![]() I'd choose the Phantom over the Ghost anyday. The curvy lines aren't quite appealing making it look more Maybach-ish & the rear, like someone said before looks a lot like a Bentley!! |

Senior - BHPian | ![]() Some clarifications from my side: 1)This is a customer car headed or must I say should reach Chennai today. It was the first Ghost delivered by Navnit, pics were clicked on wednesday, Delhi dealer has delivered 4 already. 2)The promotional car was here for a week and was a LHD. 3) The Ghost is much more advanced than the Phantom in terms of Gadgets and technologies, much like the E66 7 series and the F02 7 Series.The BMW 7 Series F02 and the Ghost are technically identical. 4) The engine is a 6.6L V12 twin turbo plant borrowed and tweaked from the 6.0L BMW V12, the power is phenomenal! 5) 4 more Ghosts arriving in the coming week, 2 will be for Mumbai! |

Senior - BHPian | ![]() I have read in reviews that the Ghost has more gadgets on board. Most impressive are the driver assistance features that provide a circle of safety around the car: night vision and active cruise control looking far down the road; a top view camera system using cameras front, rear, and side (photo above showing the camera view, left, and a sonar view, right) helpful for parking in tight spaces; peek-around-the-corner cameras that help when you're pulling out of space where vision is limited; lane departure warning (LDW); and front and rear parking sonar.You can have active massage seats, the audio system includes a hard disk to store music files, and the active rear suspension banks the car slightly during cornering much as a plane does. |

![]() That is some news. I would definitely prefer a Ghost over the Phantom, even though the Phantom is grand and majestic. IMO the Ghost has more character and appeal than the Phantom. Anyway, both are the epitome of luxury and sheer class. ![]() | |

| ![]() It does look much slicker than Phantom. But whats with the interiors? I found the chrome to be too shiny. Doesnt look that classy to me. Or maybe its because of the low light in the pics. |

| ![]() looks gorgeous but, does it deserve the premium over the 760?? very much similar to the Gallardo which is nothing but an R8 with some Italian clothes on. If it had to be a rolls then definitely the phantom over this. |

Plus, there's a world of difference between an R8 and Gallardo, especially in its LP560 guise. Sure they share a lot of mechanicals but the difference is in the details - it's like comparing a good champagne with a Dom Perignon. The Gallardo looks majestic, the R8 looks like an overgrown titty (TT). | |
