Rolls Royce Phantom and a few other details-56k friendly

I used 3M's Final Glaze III (European version) and Clearkote's Carnauba Moose.



The car has some orange peel, which is unusual for a Rolls but otherwise the paint is flawless.



V-12

453 HP

531 lb-ft of torque

6 speed automatic

Suicide doors with 'soft touch' closing

Bi-level Xenon headlights

420 watt Lexicon Logic 7 audio system with 2 subs

$328,000 list.



Nice addition to the garage, eh? Also, notice how much larger the Rolls is than the Bentley and Lamborghini.

Suicide doors and notice the sheepskin floor mats!

Just after I first polished and waxed it.

Self portait-notice the light orange peel.

Very nice Rolls Phantom. I saw Allen Iverson a few months ago chilling with his boys in a black one just like that. About $375K I believe. That's a lot of cheese.



Whose is it? Did you get to drive it?
 
Nice job on the Rolls. How is the paint quality compared to the Bimmer 7-series?



I can’t believe BMW has the gall to put the Rolls-Royce badge on that rolling abomination. The Bentley in your pics is beautiful, the Rolls is…………eh, different.

It is better than the new 7 series, but not as good as the Bentley or Diablo since it does have some light orange peel. It is about as black as black can be though.

I agree the Bentley is a much better looking car, but the Rolls kind of grows on you...well, maybe not the front end...but it looks better in person. Still, I would much rather have the Bentley.

It belongs to a customer who owns 6 strip clubs, a tattoo parlor and is opening a hot rod and Harley themed restaurant. I got to move it around today, but that was about it. Similar to a new 7 Series BMW-put the key fob into the dash, step on the brake, push the start button then move the gear selector into D or R. push it in for park.

:nixweiss I guess if he can afford both...he sure stimilated the economy between the two to nearly $700,000! The Bentley is up for sale if any of y'all are interested.
 
Dude that thing looks like it has the displacement of a M1A1 Abrams MBT!!!



Absolutely gorgeous work!!!!:bounce You must have been sore as hell after that one.
 
<----- So jealous that you got to detail my dream car (Rolls Royce Phantom). The OE rims are hideous, but on MTV Cribs, Diko from Giovanna pulled up in one on 24's (Chrome on oneside and Chrome with black spinners on the other)...Quite the jaw dropper. I emailed Giovanna since no pics were on their website and they said they granted my wish.



The NXT + #16 looks very wet. I like!



Very nice as always Scott.
 
Wow, what a beautiful, yet hideous car! Great job on the car as usual! :up



Does the owner have any plans for the new Bentley GT?
 
Scott,



What can I say but, A W S O M E ! ! ! :bow :bow :bow



All of those cars look even better because you know your stuff! :xyxthumbs



I like the NXT + #16! It looks very wet! Have you used that combo on a lighter color yet?



Again, looking sweet as usual! :D



Cheers,
 
I swear, everytime I see the front end of the rolls I can't help but be reminded of a 70's era GM station wagon or the wagon from the national lampoon's vacation. What the hell were those designers thinking.

Thanks Andrew! I've used #20 and #16 on white, but not NXT/#16 yet. I did use it on my car, which you can see in the background of the Rolls pics in sunlight.
