Rolls-Royce Phantom Series II: upper-class excess


- It's not natural that Rolls-Royce Phantom confidently asserted is "the best car in the world!"Rolls-Royce was not under a firm reiterated create "the best car in the world". At a certain point, Rolls-Royce's statement can be completely accurate, especially when the Rolls-Royce Phantom was introduced in 2003, it is the car is considered the best of the Rolls-Royce for at least 60 years before the Phantom was introduced.
Rolls-Royce Phantom is a car born from the perfect combination between a luxury car of the British media, with peak mechanical engineering in Germany - with the support of parent company BMW, after Rolls Royce was sold to BMW in the late '90 of the last century.
The owners are switching to is a huge step forward for Rolls-Royce, the luxury car company to help get rid of the outdated image of her, replaced by more modern image. This change has caused a major hit to the Rolls-Royce lovers worldwide.
Appearance of the Rolls-Royce became stiff and somewhat more rough, Phantom brings an impressive great car. The impressive features of the Phantom and remain on the Phantom Series II, Rolls-Royce conducted only a few minor changes in the design of the car to bring a new look for the more subtle Phantom, by the Basically Phantom has almost reached perfection.
Rolls-Royce has eliminated pairs of round headlights in front of the Phantom, the car only pair of headlights single large rectangle, the giant grille of the car is made of stainless steel material, the vehicle has been equipped with 21-inch wheels with a simple design, sturdy and classy. Many of the car companies had to replace the wheels on the Phantom, but almost all of which were replaced in low regard.
Rolls-Royce Phantom Series II has four variants including a sedan, coupe, convertible, and the highest peak is the long wheelbase version. The Phantom is a symbol of power, wealth, prosperity and success for its owners.
In the world of ultra-luxury cars, Phantom's rival Maybach and Bentley, Maybach has however officially deaths, while Bentley has never really on par with Rolls-Royce.
Even the most advanced cars of Bentley's Mulsanne can only be brought out for comparison with the Rolls-Royce Ghost, a "junior" the Phantom, Mulsanne never be on par with Phantom.
CEO of Rolls-Royce, Torsten Mueller-Oetvoes him, insisting that Rolls-Royce is not interested in the car for under a quarter million U.S. dollars and the company is not interested in other companies when they efforts to create a car that is in the same segment with Rolls-Royce.
Statement by Torsten Mueller-Oetvoes somewhat arrogant, but the fact that there is not a car company is happy ending when confronted directly with Rolls-Royce. Evidence is the Maybach, the brand's luxury Daimler was the second death after trying to make the cars even more expensive Rolls-Royce.
For two consecutive years in 2011 and 2012, Rolls-Royce has continued to set new records in sales. In 2011, Rolls-Royce sold 3,538 vehicles, while the figure in 2012 was 3,575 vehicles. These are impressive numbers Rolls-Royce that achieved during the nearly 110 years since it was founded.
One other special thing is that most of Rolls-Royce cars sold in 2012 will be built on personalized programs - Rolls-Royce Bespoke.
It sits on a Rolls-Royce Phantom Series II understand why this expensive car can still achieve impressive success, despite the difficult situation of the world economy, particularly in Europe.
Phantom Series II Powerful, quiet and extremely comfortable. If you sit in the other car you can be the road noise or wind noise when driving at high speeds bothered. But this is never the Phantom, no sirens, no sound of wind, the car is like a boat that moves on the ground.
The stability of the vehicle at any speed is not affected by wind or road surface, thanks in part to large vehicles weighing more solid when it moves, in addition to the large tires also help increase Phantom stability, and suspension of the car was designed very carefully.
Despite owning large size, but the ability to handle the Rolls is not suspected, though on the winding road. Rolls-Royce has tried to bring to the performance of the car like the Phantom sports. Despite owning large size, but the Phantom has been aerodynamically like a race car, not a heavy luxury car.

According to Rolls-Royce, each pedal effects from the drivetrain incredibly precise handling, the car takes only a few milliseconds to respond to the changes from the base station. Phantom Series II takes 5.7 seconds to accelerate from 0-96 km / h, the maximum speed of the vehicle is limited to 240 km / h, separate coupe can reach speeds of 250 km / h.
These figures are impressive for cars weighing up to 2.5 tons as the Phantom. However, performance is not necessarily the owner of the vehicle concerned, because they almost never sat behind the wheel of the car. Place for the real owners of this luxury car is in the backseat.
The story of the Phantom Coupe and Phantom Drophead Coupe is a little different. Two cars were built for the boss to sit directly behind the steering wheel. With only two open back door, out into the back seat of the car will be just two convenient front row seats folded. However, the luxury, the comfort of the car does not have to trade.
With smaller, more elegant design, do not be surprised when two cars operate more flexible and a little stronger. The car does not sacrifice stability and comfort to be able to get higher performance.
Braking ability of the Phantom is also incredible, though in the archives conditions or wet roads.
Cabin of the Phantom are all perfect in the highest standards, with expensive materials like precious wood, soft leather, chrome details, the controls are designed and arranged reasonable.
Everything that you touch or can touch you, you must bring the best possible sense. It is the goal of the Rolls-Royce in the process of building the car.
Steering wheel of the car-style classic design and is wrapped in soft leather, the steering wheel is reminiscent of what is normal, but the many that have integrated function buttons.
Center panel of Phantom also extremely simple design, luxurious. The car only has the most basic features, to bring great trips for the rich man.
However, Phantom Series is also no lack of modern equipment, the advanced entertainment devices. Most of these devices are hidden and will only appear when needed. Know the boss looking to buy a luxury car should anything in their cars, Rolls-Royce has equipped most of the necessary equipment in the car, turn into a Phantom really relaxing on the . Therefore, there is a lot of equipment, no more buttons appear on Phantom Series II.
