2020 Rolls-Royce Phantom vs The Cheapest Phantom You Can Buy

they also have a mechanical handle that clicks oh the steering wheel is so thin it's cool I think this is just this I wish that one was that thin really yeah it's okay it's a classic Rolls Royce. My biggest annoyance with the steering wheel is that therr doesn't stay upright like the wheels on the outside do. You will be fine? It would have just been something for the day. How cool that would have been. I guess that would have been great. Yeah, okay, so here we are on a ghost. it's funny it feels like someone is squeezing it actually says ghost here that's really cool so the person who specified this was originally expecting black on black on black yeah right you can understand you could have gotten colors on this one area, no imagination, well, I think this is something like that. elegant it's more it's more gangster it's definitely right this button you press that height oh there's a watch that one says has the brand now I know it's a

how am I supposed to know that that's uh so this is a system hilariously old looking infotainment, yes it's the entertainment that will be the worst, even that in 10 years, yes I agree, yes yes but you can see the same things but the air conditioning is blue and red, we have a low, medium level. tall although for him instead of soft medium well because at least this one doesn't lie, that's right, yes, we have, we have the plush wall that we have and it looks like a gorilla's hand, yes, for your heel, yes, yes, yes, and then we have ways. of moving things is this what moves my mirror here, yes, but it's that thing everywhere, it's these joysticks, that's right, yes, you feel like you're in an arcade without ventilated seats, no, just a leather smooth, no, this is still obviously. very very nice but I will tell you that they have come a long way yes, what is this? yeah, that's a cup holder, oh I see, but you know what it looks like, wouldn't you know, it fits perfectly, it's the future, wow.

Rolls Royce 2004 they knew they knew what else you knew what else you knew okay we should look at the back seat yeah let's do it oh you don't need to do that because even 16 years ago there's no way those are faster, faster, faster faster, very fast and it's the same button, it's the same button, that's crazy, yeah, oh, it's spacious, these seats are very, very comfortable, they don't have a soft cushion on the backrest, there's no soft cushion, but it's ergonomic, but I guess there's something older about leather. I guess it's been 16 years, but since this is one of the

cheapest

ghosts out there in North America, yeah, I'll take it all right, so for a fraction of the price, we'll still get an ashtray, yeah, we both have.

You must smoke a lot, quite a bit, yes, in fact, well, you can get smoking packages, yes, an additional amount, we also have televisions here, we do that and then I'll open this little door and push this in, oh wow, look, that's not a very modern chrome. right there, no, that's not the newest feeling that's part of this interior, that's for sure, we have our own control panel here and ours too, I drive feeling what the rest of these things do, okay though, so we have this push down here. I put that in and then these and then yeah, wow, that went well, yeah, that got excited.

What is it? Oh, this is so I can adjust the volume. The radio looks like a foam pad. Yeah, it's pretty funny. Goes here. Oh, it's him. A Tetris piece oh, it just fits in there yeah, yeah, that thing always fits well, yeah, we have more storage space back here, oh, that's nicely trimmed, it's like suede all the way down, but it's old suede, but it's Well, we have massage seats, there are massages. seats in that of course there are in all the seats and it has massage seats I don't think so so I think we sacrifice the massage seats oh it's something we have more space here there is no refrigerator in this one I'm sure that I could have opted for a cooler at that time, yes, but no, no, there is no starry night, there is no starry night, that is a new feature, how will I know if it is night?

We can't click there, um, okay, for the money, this is very, very nice, yeah, what is it? In this price range you get like 80 grand, you can't even get an S-Class for that price, no, and you can get Rolls-Royce Founders, it's a beast, the monster, the ultimate in passenger luxury. I want to see how it drives. go drive this one first yeah let's do it right okay the 2004 Rolls-Royce Phantom I'm driving it yeah I can finally relax. It's right inside, so it's actually not that slow. No, both cars share a 6.75-liter V12 engine. Okay, but this one has like 453 horsepower and 531 pound-feet of torque, so while those numbers are pretty big, they're actually a hundred horsepower less and a hundred pound-feet less torque than the new one. , is it less or less, less pounds? feet less no, I don't like that in the English language it's stupid, you know, it's not stupid, although being in the back of a Rolls Royce and leaving everything, you did another poop, I did, how do you drive?

It's very, very soft, are you ready? I'm ready, the transmission took a second to figure out what it wanted, yes well this is the six speed, yes, from the bmw 7 series of yesteryear, now correct, it's incredibly smooth to drive, but it feels closer to the age that Yes, it's not so smooth, look back, here we're going to have to drive the other one again, but no, it doesn't feel like it's floating so much white, it's very, very nice, although it's dark here. although yes that is the option, white definitely brightens the day, obviously maintenance is more difficult.

I wish I could get a rev gauge because you don't have one. I don't have it. That should be something a passenger receives. I have a power reserve indicator. What it does is it just tells me how much my foot is down and how much is left available to hand over if needed, but it goes counterclockwise, it goes down from 100. Yes, these seats are very comfortable. Yes, I love that even when I'm reclined I can do it. seeing the spirit of ecstasy, yes it is, it's something really special to see it floating in front, like some, I feel sorry for some people because they have to look at the symbol of my money, right, being bullied, yes, so this is very difficult. path, we have chosen a rather difficult path to test this on non-rothers, like criminals, there is no right because when you go to the Canadians, when you leave Canada, everything feels scary and unsafe, no, this is, it is absorbing all the hits very well, I will say. that there are some vibrations that come to the right and there is tire noise there is tire noise yes, even though the windows are double glazed oh why does that make me want a donut?

I will say that there is something very dated about this one that the new one does I haven't done it in a good way, in a good way, yes, it feels like the steering wheel is so gracefully thin and everything is very upright, don't shame the new 2019. Yeah, the secrets really locked me in, I don't know, the seat belt will. Don't release me, what do you think won't be released? I just want you to be safe. I'm in Rolls-Royce prison. It's nice, I'm sure that's what Scandinavian prisons are like, but I don't like it, having televisions and stuff, yeah.

Yes you do, no no it doesn't feel like a classic car. In fact, we drove some classic cars with Volkswagen this week and they felt like classic cars. It still feels modern but at the same time captures a sort of vintage vibe. where I'm sitting, okay, let's drive the new one, okay, okay, in the new one, this is newer and it's faster, I think we did a burnout James, you can't hear anything on this, no, you can't , it's so incredibly isolated but it's fast, this is very chatty and it's thanks to that twin-turbo V12 that reaches maximum torque at 1700 rpm, that's crazy, you can feel it, it's immediate and smooth, but the throttle is a long shot, Yes, he doesn't love you. to do anything quickly no, all inputs are smooth, I don't care, except the brakes, I wouldn't mind if they felt a little sharper, yes, it has to reduce the mass of two of Jupiter's moons, yes, well , this thing weighs 5,600 pounds yeah, which seems like a lot until you take into account that the Polstar we just drove, which is a carbon fiber sports car, doesn't really have back seats, it only weighs 400 pounds. less than this, so good. fact,

has all the bells and whistles and has killed a lot of lambs, right, James, lambs don't die, these too, anyway, it has four-wheel steering, unlike the previous one, which is new, yes, of course, and the steering itself is much lighter, much more electronic. which is good in this case yes, I want to be held in the hand yes, I don't need feedback it's not a lotus no and it has original technology yes, it has a system in front that reads the road ahead using radar and cameras and adjusts The air suspension actively and anti-roll bars act on the fly to ensure the ride is as smooth as possible.

Does it have an original name? Of course. Oh yeah. He is called the standard bearer. The god who carries the flag. I am just. I imagine like tempo tampon gentlemen of cydonia don't worry, so I have this, yes, sacramento, the sacramento lights, okay, they love avocados, yes, and they like it, it's important to understand even with the old Rolls-Royce , but this one in particular is very different from anything. the s classes anything like the s class and the a8 and the seven series are amazing cars and they are smooth and quiet and fast but this is just on another level of shakes you described it best you actually said it's like being on a quiet lake on a boat on a plane yes it is incredibly soft and if you have the air conditioning off because soft it is a lie as we have said yes it is not that quiet it is so quiet that you can drive this is like being in a padded room with double pane glass, yes, absolutely, but the other one, the old one, is silent, it's incredible.

I think the journey is actually where they differ the least, obviously, that you feel a little bit older, you can't escape the fact that this has all the cutting-edge things, no, and the surprising thing about this is that, although it's a lot better than an s class and a seven series in an a8, and I dare say that a g90, it doesn't cost more, no, oh, no, wait, no, it's, it's, it's eight times the price, yes, eight times, eight, eight times the price, yeah, okay, we're going to do something people don't do in a ghost, we're going to tear up some California hills and maybe kill acceleration because we don't stuff a car that's worth more wow, the grip is really impressive, how is it possible that we go so fast?

Loses a little composure with body roll and stuff. I can feel the rear, oh my gosh, this is rear wheel drive and I could feel it like this. it's amazing that I can do this, that's crazy, I like the spirit of ecstasy leading the way, okay, so in conclusion, yes, the old one is still very much a Rolls Royce, it's definitely still a Rolls Royce and if you pretend that the word reliability does not exist, it is a great option it is a great option not that it disappoints us not today, but it would be foolish to ignore the maintenance costs of a 2004 rolls royce

phantom

.

Also, the big difference is that If you want to customize a Rolls Royce, obviously, and that's it. The idea is that with these trainers you have to buy a new one and the darkness of the other one would not be how I would customize it. I think it's great, much more than the previous one. This is a strange way to include this. It's okay, but. It makes me want to go and ask Morgan Freeman for some cave spelunking gear, so to conclude, the new ghost is definitely better in every way. Rolls has created practically the best vehicle in the world.

It's a soft butter isolated floating cloud v12. comfort bathed in the light of a thousand stars, but what we discovered is that you can actually get a real Rolls-Royce Phantom for less than a hundred thousand dollars and, in case you weren't trying to blend in on your 19-footer. Long distance yacht, the good news is that from the outside the uninitiated won't be able to tell the damn difference.
