2009 Rolls-Royce Phantom Drophead Coupe

2009 Rolls-Royce Phantom is the coolest car I've driven all year. And on so many levels. The ride is something other luxury-car makers can only dream of. It is like riding on a cloud, but not so much in a floaty, boaty old-Buick kind of way, but more in a controlled, commanding, take-no-prisoners kind of way that won't spill the champagne your passenger is sipping. 2009 Rolls-Royce Phantom It is effortless. I love the thin steering wheel. You can turn it with one finger, and the steering is so light. But the handling is more precise than you'd expect in a three-ton beast such as this.2009 Rolls-Royce Phantom

2009 Rolls-Royce Phantom seats, and the 2009 Rolls-Royce Phantom leather covering them, should be in the car seat hall of fame. They are inviting and so comfortable, I wanted to rip one out and put it in my living room. The quality of the leather and the stitching is on another level from other car makers. As is the wood and the metal used throughout. The teakwood, or whatever the wood is that was used for the rear roof cover, looks like it should be on a vintage boat. 2009 Rolls-Royce Phantom It is exquisite.

Rolls-Royce two neqw models

Naza Motor Trading Sdn Bhd has launched two Rolls-Royce car models, the Rolls-Royce Phantom and Phantom Drophead Coupe.

General manager Richard Tan said both the luxury sedan and open top “cruiser” were targeted at the “chosen few”.

“These are serious motor cars and it is for the people who have arrived and achieved.

“Naza is no doubt the first company to bring in the Rolls-Royce Phantom (sedan) and the Drophead Coupe,” he said yesterday at the launch of the cars here.

“Buying the car has the same concept and value as why people want to buy a Van Gough painting, even though all you do is look at the painting,” Tan added.

The Rolls-Royce Phantom sedan sells for RM2.984mil while the Drophead Coupe is going for RM2.889mil.

“Sales of the Rolls-Royce Phantom and Drophead Coupe will not be affected by the economic (climate in) 2010,” said marketing executive Jonathan Ong.

The company is targeting a yearly sale of five units, noting that while the new models currently have no one on the wait-list, the number of customer enquiries has been encouraging.
