This was Rolls Royce' First All New Model since the introduction of the Silver Shadow, (30 Years) and only the 9th new model in their 106 year history.
Theoretically, the car is also the "Father" of the new Phantom as it directly precedes it. It is Powered By BMW's multiple award winning M73 V12 Engine (Ward's 10 best engines 1998, International Engine of the Year 1999)
The Engine is so smooth at idle that you can balance a nickel on top of the engine and it just stays there!
It uses a heavy duty 5 speed automatic transmission built by ZF that is incredibly smooth
The Price New of these 2000 models without options was $219,000. mine has the leather Headliner which, I believe is a 10k option. Mine Has 18" wheels that were available on this model if you ordered the Carbon Ceramic Brake Rotors, however it has the normal brake rotors.
This car is a 2 Owner vehicle if Dealers are not included. There have been three dealers between the original owner and myself. the Original owner moved the car from Florida to New York and then back to Florida and then to Texas and then back to Florida and traded it in in Early 2012 to a dealer who sold it at the Manheim Auction. A dealer in Fla. bought it and then put it on ebay. My Friend in San Luis Obispo who is a dealer( British Sports Cars) bought it and then sold it to me with 41900 miles or so. in Dec. 2012.
It has Been A great car and absolutely reliable. When you drive this car, you can expect special treatment at Hotels, Country Clubs, Restaurants and places with Valet Parking.
Check out a video review of the Silver Seraph by the British TV show Men and Motor on YouTube (channel: Menandmotor)
these cars have an ALPINE Stereo System with CD and CD Changer and Navigation.
these Cars use REGULAR BRAKE FLUID (DOT 4) instead of the Old School Mineral Oil that the older cars use.
this car will do the 0-60 in 6.9 seconds and stop from 60-0 in 3 seconds. (amazing for a 5000lb car!)
these cars have a 50/50 front to rear weight balance which really is nice in the corners. Winding Roads are a Pleasure with this car.

Rolls-Royce Alpine Trial Centenary Collection celebrates century-old Austrian race
Tue, 23 Apr 2013Among the harvest of premieres at the Shanghai Motor Show was a special-edition Rolls-Royce Ghost to celebrate the 1913 Austrian Alpine Trials. Four Rolls-Royce Silver Ghosts entered the race a century ago, and in completing the 1,820-mile challenge flawlessly earned the sobriquet "The Best Car in the World." The new Ghosts commemorating the feat represent two firsts for the brand: Rolls-Royce has never created a bespoke homage to one of its own cars, and it has never released a car with a black grille.
Those two features, as well as blue paint and black wheels, are in tribute to James Radley's privateer entry in that 1913 race that drove alongside the three factory teams. Other special features include the coachline (pinstripe) that evokes the four cars from the 20th-century race, and inside, a color-matched headliner, a clock with the rally stages and times, and topographical inlays on the front fascia and rear picnic tables.
The 20-Ghost Club will be reenacting the event this year, the parade including Radley's 1913 car. It kicks off in Vienna, Austria on June 14. For the time being you can read the press release below and check out the high-res photos above.
Rolls-Royce Ghost meets its muddy maker in Jakarta flood
Sun, 20 Jan 2013When severe weather or a natural disaster strikes an area, it's hard to get sentimental over trivial possessions like cars, but at the same time, as auto enthusiasts, it always pains us to see a rare car lost regardless of the circumstances. Heavy rains in Jakarta, Indonesia have produced the worst flooding in the city since 2007, which according to Reuters has left an estimated 18,000 people displaced from their homes in addition to six deaths, leaving the roadways covered covered in feet of water.
One of the many cars claimed by the rising waters was this Rolls-Royce Ghost that is surrounded by water that almost fully covers the massive wheels. There is no word as to how much water got inside this Ghost, but it was obviously enough that it could be bailed out by the bucket.
eBay Find of the Day: Andy Warhol's 1974 Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow
Sun, 25 May 2014Andy Warhol is one of the most recognizable artists of the 20th Century. With hits like his famous Campbell's soup cans and Marilyn Monroe portraits, he is likely the first name you think of in association with the pop art movement. He isn't known for being an auto enthusiast, though, but maybe that's not entirely the case - there was his BMW M1 art car, after all. Now, Warhol's 1974 Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow is up for auction on eBay Motors.
According the seller, Warhol never had a driver's license, but he still wanted to own a luxurious car. It's claimed that he occasionally had his famous friends, including Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, chauffeur him around in the Rolls. Following Warhol's death in 1987, the car was auctioned for $77,000, and since then it has only been sold to one additional owner.
The Rolls is painted Walnut and Mason's Black, which appears closer to a shade of brown in these photos, with a black leather interior. The engine is the company's' popular 6.75-liter V8 with a three-speed automatic transmission, and there are just 56,000 miles on this luxurious classic. The seller is including copies of original purchase order from Rolls-Royce and the title to Warhol Enterprises to prove the famous artist's ownership of the car, plus all of its service records.
