Rolls Royce Phantom Coupe Review & Road test

[TheDuvee6]

@jgpwlcs36 Obviosley, Benz is just a "cheap" car compared to this or any other Rolls Royce. It's built to perfection, unlike a s-class

[BulldozerJack]

Sexy beast.

[jgpwlcs36]

is the difference between this and a s-class really worth the price?

[dreicemoney]

he meant to say australian dollars

[claudeleason]

if you can afford one in Australia, you can effortlessly afford two in US

[RTWUROTTS]

Enjoyed watching!

[charkee167]

why not just buy 10 of the most expensive cadilacs? there more practical and cheaper

[Jofes1214]

@charkee167 And with a lot of cheap plastic material...

[uberenthusiasts]

@charkee167 because you can't drive all 10 at one time idiot......and people who buy $500,000 cars couldn't care any less about "value" and practicality

[jakejakes100]

i prefere the ghost and also the interior looks nicer in the ghost coz it doesnt have the pillar from the door opening the otherway!!

[eeiko321]

im from aust.....

fucking stupid aussie fucks.

this car is 1.2 million AUD...

in usa its around about 300,000$ US

stupid country

[florinelooo]

@eeiko321 0:24 it's 1.26mil USD...

[ar022296]

@florinelooo IT'S NOT 1.26 MILLION USD! its 1.26 AUD... austrailian dollars..... -_-

[HELPMEIDUNNOHOWTOUSE]

is benjamon button driving???? ONE MINUTE hes old, the next he's got a beard and colour in his hair, WTF!

[Buzzzzzable]

My IS 350 is much more stately ;) . Holy crap, it's 0-60 is the same time as my IS.

[Cellsolid]

what a lovely car... prefer a Jaguar XJ supercharged tho

[Satwantbhambra]

Baldev Satwant Bhambra Panchkula say rolls Royce is luxuery car I like it my dreasm car must be buy one day

[ktonlai]

1.2 million dollars? thats not right.... oh wait, this is australian =P

[hondaf1team]

Teach me the title of music that starts at 1:43.

[Truemoderate]

Too bad this Rolls isn't powered by a Rolls Royce engine. Epic fail. If I had the means to buy a Rolls it shouldn't have a BMW engine in it!

[Noway778]

@Truemoderate omg your Stupid or what...BMW OWN RR.

[719AO]

Rolls Royce Ghost is better.

[eirikpilot]

Anyone else find the choice of music in this review a bit over the top? Cheesy? Exaggerated?

[01000100aniel]

It's 1.2mil in australia because of taxes :(

[2pkjs1351]

i would rather have a mercedes CLS 63AMG

[TR4NCE4L1F3]

1.26 MILLION???? Its 400k for gods sake

[The961baby]

Fuck me, even the second guy moves his hand like an idiot. I want to bitch slap them.

[DANGERTOPSECRET]

1.2 mil. ? ahhhh dud get your facts right its about 500k

[sasixuicyka]

@DANGERTOPSECRET i fink australian dollars not USD

[whatoxide]

@DANGERTOPSECRET it depends on the country and the kind of dollar.

[Vitesse1971]

"Unless you're Bill Gates...." dustinthewind, not "Unless your Bill Gates!"

This is perfection - as said, the most beautiful 2-door coupé in the world. Remember the words of Royce: :"The quality remains long after the price is forgotten!" Henry Ford, that great producer of cars, had a Rolls Royce, showing him to be a man of integrity and good taste!

[scraz51]

Why the fuck does he keep moving his arm.

[erwickline]

.....smarter than luxury

[Cassius1706]

When the revolution comes...... we'll all be driving Rolls Royce

[1915fas]

@Cassius1706 Yes, Lenin had two Rolls Royces. One was converted into a military transport with skis in front.

[abahawas]

hmm i might sell my mazda 5 rusty hatchback and buy this thing =)

[CrazyFrog3512]

This is a pretty good looking car, but it could look a lot better, the Phantom sedan is so much cooler. Plus who does Rolls Royce think will pay 1.26 Million dollars for this thing when they can get a Phantom sedan for $400,000. WTF!

[CroswhiteK]

@CrazyFrog3512 1.26 million in Australian dollars. Not USD.

[appledvd100]

don't get me wrong I think rolls royce is one of the best cars but it can be a little show off, if you want a luxury car that doesn't show off as much, get a mercedes benz

[Peto13E7]

This is the best car that is ever made.... (L) RR

[9mrman]

IS IT JUST ME OR DID HE SAY 1.26 MILLION DOLLARS??? ISNT THAT LIKE 900,000$ MORE THEN THEY COST? WHAT DID i MISS? CUZ IM BUYING THEM UP ON EBAY AND RESELLING THEM WHERE THIS GUY GOT HIS!!!!!!!!

[LiveLarger]

@9mrman Not all dollars are US dollars. There is US dollars, australian dollars, bahamian dollars and probably a dozen more.

So don't break the piggybank just yet.

[9mrman]

@LiveLarger Very true my friend... I should have knowen with all this forex going around. >)

[ardvark84]

Who know what is that classical music in 1:44? Please answer because i can't find it myself

[inufreak525]

what is the song from 0:34-1:28? 

[theotherguy245689]

chateua siren what about first class? and even then i wouldnt

[lbfrompo]

Phantom of the Opera.

[WArniNGRUS]

Какая пошлость в отделке, звездным небом и передней оптикой. Да и руль в бардачке. Пусть Кларксон на неё дрочит.

[ChateauSiran1986]

the song just before the matrix 1 theme, the classical song with strings; what is it called? It fits really well with this class of car!

Please help (answer)!

[4kingoftheart2011]

Best car in the world!!!

[whiterastaweed]

shove ure hand down ure throat

[xKJAl]

looks like hes jerking a tiny cock every time he talks

[marsupilami01]

Lord of the rings music ??

[TheMultikelvin]

damm its sad that i cant buy a car like that...=(

[ChateauSiran1986]

@TheMultikelvin

"get a job at night... you can't see it at day time"

you may think that way but I think this way: NO WAY I shall have carS like that ever, it may not happen differently. watch me

[Verification11]

i will take this over a very very very fast car ... although i like fast cars but this is just beyond elegant

[baujahr90er]

man this guy is kissing the steering wheel hahah

[theotherguy245689]

and if they make another batman movie they should use this instead.

[ChateauSiran1986]

@theotherguy245689

no. in the dark knight they used a lamborghini murcielago. Do you know what Murcielago means? it means Bat. So that car was really good

[theotherguy245689]

john paul wells, i agree. but thats a chauffer car. this is a driver car. i would rather have a maybach if i was riding in it. but i would also have this if i were driving it.

[compuadam]

Top three facts about the Rolls Royce Phantom coupe:

1. This is, by far, my dream car.

2. If I had a chance of driving this for an hour or going on a one month vacation to Hawaii, I would choose driving this car.

3. If this car were to hit Chuck Norris on the road, this is the ONLY car that would win.

Overall, this is the best car ever made.

[ChateauSiran1986]

@compuadam

what about this choice;

if you could travel around the world businessclass, as much as you want for the rest of your life, or having this car; what would you do?

[compuadam]

@ChateauSiran1986 I would travel business class until I could afford the car.

[m1y2sti3cal]

Even a 6 footer bloke would look small sitting in the driver's seat !!! Need 2 put a pillow in there..............!!!

[JohnPaulWells]

This car looks extremely nice and all, but if I really wanted a luxury sedan, then I would get a Maybach, because it just has so much more to offer.

[rcdrvrrc7]

@JohnPaulWells Its not a sedan in case you didn't notice. 

[KenGold666]

but what about the technology? for the amount u pay for id except the technology and toys of an S-class times 10, rediculous

[MidEnginedV10]

God! You make us Australians seem as if we've never seen a Roller before, let alone a car

[devster117]

i would put the wheels from the RR sedan. they look a lil better.

[W7887]

I love my hilux

by the way i can paint it with 44,000 colours also

[Wordlaw12]

That car looks so good you almost want to have sex with it. Or am I the only 1.

[droppinsumfudge]

I think the producers got together before shooting this review and told everyone to move their hands around as much as they could....

[rollinonice]

wtf its not $1.26 million dollars

[droppinsumfudge]

@rollinonice thats in australian currency 

[aerlingus18]

i didnt even know there were 44,000 colours

[BoyBoyChannel]

its just a hard top drop head

[Novavon7]

@BoyBoyChannel maybe that's why the head doesn't "drop" it's a fixed head

[Decypha77]

The car itself looks arrogant as hell; just the biggest yuck fou money can buy I swear. If ever there was a way to make the uncle's bentley azure look like it's trying too hard, this is it. lol

[i5145]

this is my dream car

[THEBobotastic]

This is my 1st or 2nd car that God is going to give me except that the inerior will be white leather and the wheels will be chromed out, the veneer will be different but other than that it's perfect!... oh yeah the wheel would be on the other side!

Hahahahaha

[jajohnson330]

1.2 million? well I'll just take two then

[ChateauSiran1986]

@jajohnson330 lol you funny

[ianmedium]

I agree with others. The presenter is useless. His constant hand movements is so annoying and really distracts one from the programme.!

Also they use every cliche in the book and the second presenter seems to have the hand thing going on as well, is this an Australian thing?

[dazimo]

And the dealer asked NOT to open the hood? haha

[Bix12]

Did he say $1.25 million?!

[sasixuicyka]

@Bix12 no.$1.26million...

[droppinsumfudge]

@sasixuicyka lol

[socceravredik]

this thing drives itself :D

[ChateauSiran1986]

@socceravredik

yes, it drives you crazy!

[InDyingDayz]

Lol I was with my brother yesturday, we dressed up in suits, and walked into a rolls royce dealer to sit in cars and talk to the dealers about the different options. It was funny. One day I will own this car or the newer model like 2012 lol. You can choose thousands of options from wood to paint its crazy. All you have to is dress nice, park your "normal" car down the street and walk in like you own the place! I swear I did it and I suggest you do to if you want to manifest this in your life.

[netram888]

@InDyingDayz that gave me a good laugh, sounds like something i would do with my dad lol :)

[yourbestfriend6492]

This or Bentley Brooklands.... The Phantom is obviously flashier with that stainless steel hood and bold styling but the Bentley just seems more elegant. The starlight roof sounded gimmicky on paper but I have to say I'm a sucker for it now. Hell if I were actually in the market for any of these I'd be able to get both so no worries.

[c95k24]

test

[rdm33rd]

I want it in horsepower asshole

[q8m302]

130000 kuwaiti dinar its price = 420000 us dollar

[faziljaved]

this is gonna be my next car

[movieluv94]

weird interior color

lol wth how did they change to a brown driver XD

[r3ach]

can someone here give me some money so i can buy one.

[dustinthewind09]

Unless your Bill Gates,I think a 2-dr Rolls is a waste of money. I'd rather have something I would have fun in,not something to show off my income. Something fast like a Lambo or Ferrari. If you want elegance,Aston Martins are some of the best looking cars out there AND they perform. Yes,the interior of the Rolls is nice, but spend it on a yacht where an interior like that is meant to be enjoyed. In my opinion, Rolls are simply a symbol of how much money you have.There is more to life than that.

[absolutinspire]

@dustinthewind09 Rolls is a symbol of superior quality and comfort.. I love Italian cars but they are weekend cars.. I wouldn't think about everyday driving on a Murcielago..

[rossthegreatess]

@dustinthewind09 A 2 door rolls royce is a statement

[YourFatClownAss]

@dustinthewind09 I beg to differ. I see no point in a car which will have all the law and speed cameras on your butt as soon as you shift into second gear, a car which can barely go over speed bumps and a car which has space just enough for a jacket in the back. Oh and don't forget the safety in those cars, a small van will run em over like a snail. Don't forget the fact that they can seat more than 1 and half person.

Rolls is just for different need buddy.

[dustinthewind09]

@YourFatClownAss I believe it comes down to a choice between performance and comfort. A Ferrari F40 for example is stripped of the creature comforts for pure performance, whereas this car has to add horsepower to make up for its extra weight. Choosing between comfort and performance comes down to the owner. A true driver deserves a manual gearbox and zero driver aids. A true rider deserves leather seats and foot massages. This is a car meant to be driven by someone you pay. Not someone like me.

[mthlaxer]

@dustinthewind09 If you wanted a car to get driven around in you would NEVER buy this car. it is a coupe meaning that the back to seats are going to be smaller then the one is the front. plus there is no divide in between the diver area and the rear seats. it would also be annoying to get in and out of the back seat seeing as you would have to slide the front seat up and fold it down. if you want the best of both worlds get a Bentley continental GT or super sport

[dustinthewind09]

@mthlaxer What I was originally saying a few comments ago is that this car is completely useless. Since it is a coupe it is not meant to be ridden in, and since it lacks the performance of a Ferrari or Lamborghini of equivalent value, it is overpriced. I guess I don't see the point of buying it unless the owner wants to flaunt their money.

[mthlaxer]

@dustinthewind09 i completely agree

[KayC604]

@dustinthewind09 ur clearly not a luxury car enthusiast, but different strokes for different folks i suppose.

[dustinthewind09]

@KayC604 It's a coupe though. I would totally understand if it was a four-door. Why have luxury when you aren't riding in the back?

[KayC604]

@dustinthewind09 seems like it'd be a nice comfortable cruising car when u just wanna drive and smoke a joint n relax. Otherwise known as "grand tourers." Thats the thing with rich ppl, they have several cars and each of them only satisfies one purpose (excluding the one for daily driving) because they can afford to have one dimensional cars.

[dustinthewind09]

@KayC604 Yes it does seem like that, but I still don't think it is a good use of the money. Plus you shouldn't smoke a joint and drive. I guess if I was a rich man, I would have a Lambo and a Ferrari instead of one of these.

[Slacking02]

@dustinthewind09 if you want to ride in the back get a ghost...

[JohnBrody23]

@dustinthewind09 You sound poor.

[dustinthewind09]

@JohnBrody23 Ha - I am poor.

[12xRubbaBandx12]

@dustinthewind09 dude rolls are really good cars you have a lot a money why not buy one rolls are really fancy cars there not build for speed like lambo or ferrari its a luxury car if your rich go buy one i bet if you show up in that to a hotel people are gunna be starring 24/7

[megadethqc]

Thats his whole point. You buy it because its a symbol, not a good car.

[pearlone]

@dustinthewind09 Oh, and an Aston isn't ?

[dustinthewind09]

@pearlone Isn't what?

[eidure1]

@dustinthewind09 well said! The Phantom really isn't a humble mans car. If I had more money than sense I wouldn't go around showing off to everyone. Sure, it's great to have nice things but do it for your self, not for others.

[macintoshwindows1]

there is only 10 in Australia

[GraandHustleMafia]

wait, these run for 1.2 million United States dollars? or euro? i thought they run for about half of that around 500k and yea this really is a nice car! i seen 2 in about my 10 years of living in Philadelphia,PA USA

[chrisvda88]

[Flatline89]

IN AUSTRALIAN DOLLARS....US dollars aren't the only currency around....

[reupbosss]

[q8m302]

@chrisvda88 no its 400.000$ and this for standard model with out extras

[gfc92592]

The car inspires, the speaker deflates and puts me to sleep.

[Corbon440]

1.26 million dollars? Was he on drugs? It's less than half as much.

[kfarookahmed]

Did you say 1.26 million usd

[SUEBOYINCORPARATED]

[CoupeDeville23]

[jhb972]

What's the name of the song at 2:16? same song in Matrix as well, anyone knows?

[Bloodgod40]

Why is he spewing all this metricism. kilowatts? newton meters? He might as well speak in chinese.

[lama101]

[seomoz]

these hand gestures, this way of speaking and the stiff sitting position is killing me

killing the whole vid

[matawin2]

i hope its not all old guy and bitches from florida that will buy this perfection

[mosibati]

wow ..

[piesanmash]

450,000 us dollars

[brunettechocha]

Yeah, they should clarify that they are talking about Australian dollars (or whatever it is). With the American dollar the value of this car is around the $300,000s.

[Trithij]

Actually 1 AUD is equal to 0.90 USD now.

You can get such car starting from 350K USD, however I consider Drophead to be even better choice.

[Kryppton1]

Brilliantly said i agree but i preffer the saloon, being creative, imagine two sissors front doors and two suicide back door, that spell elegance

[GreenJoe5]

Nice metaphore at 1:53.

[FlySocietyy123]

do you really have to move your hand on every word you say? i would give my left nut for that car though

[sukh126]

id giv both my nuts 4 that car

[danthemanpatrick]

I had to look away and just listen because that was annoying me so much. It's even more strange that both of the presenters were doing it.

[googoo120]

@FlySocietyy123 UR LEFT NUT ISNT ENOUGH

[Puz1r]

@FlySocietyy123 COME ON, GUY IS NERVOUS :))

[ricepaddy69]

4:01 to 4:31

Whoa, is that music from Return of the Jedi soundtrack? Exquisite.

[RedXR4]

It's so gigantic it looks like he had trouble keeping it between the lines...

[jayco4]

you guys are right.. my god with the fucking hands... i couldn't remember anything they told me at the end of the video i was too distracted and annoyed... BEAUTIFUL CAR though

[IamWeasel]

True, the hands are distracting as s**t.

[BGiesemann]

What is it with their left hands? Are they stupid? Ruining the whole video...

[1g2002541]

Please Please Get a suit next time when U do review of such an elegant machine.

[block937]

[mypassmark1]

WHAT THE HELL???? 1.26 million??? Dude, there is a Rolls Royce dealer that's 40 miles from me. They're selling a 2009 model (Phantom Coupe) for $439,000

[mohammadVTC]
