May 26, 2010 - PRLog -- 2010 Rolls-Royce Phantom Review
The 2010 Rolls-Royce Phantom is a car like St. Peter's Basilica is a church. Or the Titanic was a boat. Or a five-tiered wedding cake is a dessert. In other words, owning a Rolls-Royce isn't like owning any other car, even compared to Ferraris or Bentleys. Ask anyone and they'll probably tell you that the king of the automotive world wears a majestic Spirit of Ecstasy hood ornament atop its chrome radiator-style grille. If you've reached this level of automotive purchase, congratulations. You won't be disappointed. As you can likely imagine, most of the creature comforts expected in regular luxury sedans are present in the Phantom, but it's the countless special touches that set Rolls-Royce apart. Every surface is covered in leather, adorned in veneer or fashioned from chrome. The carpets are made of deep-pile sheepskin that makes you want to wear stockings. That Spirit of Ecstasy hood ornament disappears into the grille when the car is locked to prevent the flying lady from being kidnapped by hoodlums. And the RR logos in the 21-inch wheels don't spin when you're driving, so they're constantly on display for gawking passers-by.

Walkaround
As you can likely imagine, most of the extra cost comforts available for other luxury sedans are present in the Phantom, but it's the countless special touches that set Rolls-Royce apart. Every surface is covered in leather, adorned in veneer or accented with chrome. The carpets are made of deep-pile sheepskin that makes you want to drive barefoot. That Spirit of Ecstasy hood ornament disappears into the grille when the car is locked to prevent the flying lady from being taken by a coveting onlooker. Speaking of looking, the RR logos in the 21-inch wheels are known to turn heads, as they don't spin when you're driving, so they're constantly on display. Of course you know there's more... On this sedan the back doors not only open rearward to allow for a more graceful egress, but they also carry hidden Teflon-coated umbrellas which are ever so perfect for those unexpected showers. Then there's the optional fiber-optic headliner which creates the brilliant illusion of a starry night. The countless customization options cover just about everything you can imagine, from cabin curtains and an infinite color palette to a trunk-mounted wine cooler and full cabin partition. Alas, when you think there couldn't be more, you find out your Phantom has an older sister. That's right, there are actually two Phantom sedans. The regular-wheelbase model boasts one of the largest backseats on four wheels, but for those who desire even more space, the Extended Wheelbase (EWB) model packs on an additional 10 inches of rear-seat legroom. Sure, you could buy a Porsche Boxster S and an 82-inch TV for the 70 grand you'd be dropping on those 10 extra inches in the back, but you'll definatly be relieved you took the plunge when it comes time for you to take Shaq and Yao Ming out to Mortons Steakhouse. No matter which of the sisters you choose, you'll enjoy the same potent V12 engine and a meticulously engineered chassis that soaks up bumps like they were never even there.

Summary
So many past Rolls-Royce motor cars relied solely on the company's hallowed name, which tended to be attached to products engineered when Prince Charles was but a wee lad. Thanks to parent company BMW's prudent stewardship, the 2010 Rolls-Royce Phantom is a thoroughly modern union of meticulous German engineering and iconic British panache. It makes the new Bentley Mulsanne look like an homage and the Maybach seem like just another car. The Rolls-Royce Phantom is oh-so-much more.
