Although not entirely “all new” for 2011, the Rolls Royce ghost was introduced in 2010 as an all new model in the Rolls Royce lineup, the smaller sibling if you will to the phantom. It boasts it’s own unique variation of styling, but doesn’t fall short of borrowing some styling cues from the phantom. The Ghost also shares the BMW 7 series platform and contains a lot of the similar telemetrics interfaces as the 7 series making it quite easy to get the hang of if you’re familiar with the systems. Itake viewers on a close look through the interior and exterior of this car while showing details, over viewing of features, and noting unique styling cues to the vehicle itself. I also show the engine and the details of it, start it up and see how it sounds under acceleration. A thorough tour/review of this car designed to give others a greater overall appreciation of the vehicle.

This is my first attempt at a car tour: I apologize for the dust on the camera lens as well as the muffled sound from appox. 4:40 – 5:05 (accidentally blocked the mic on the small camera I was using).
