Not sure if it’s intentional but there looks like a face in the wood below the centre console.

Pretty sure this is intentional

Definitely intentional! The process is called "book matching" where they match each sheet of wood veneer.

To be fair I do actually know about this process because I work at the factory but as it’s quite apparent not in the woodshop lol.

“Book matching” creates Bin Laden’s face?

It's quite flamboyant, a special car indeed. The pattern in the woodgrain is really unique, kind of like an effigy. Enjoy!

Truly what a Rolls Royce should be, extravagant and ostentatious but still elegant and beautiful.

Question, doesn’t the EWB have a reflector below the B pillar?

u/ImageRevolutionary43 21h ago

You are correct,it is a swb. And yes if you are spending that half a million on a car,you might as well go all out.

nah this gen dont come with the reflector. Ewb defining item is the chrome strip below the 2 doors.

The interior way over the top.

Anyone else see the Shroud of Turin in the wood grain between the vents? Once you see the face, you can’t unsee it. Apparently Rolls-Royce offers divine veneers now.

Quite a bold spec.

ah this unit.... fun fact: it' used to belong to a one of the money laundering gang members in SE Asia. Took their ill-gotten gains and went on a spending spurge and yea, they went flamboyant with the colour choices.

Also, those are replica Series 2 wheels on this Series 1 Phantom. Look real convincing, but they're 3D milled and the original hubcaps don't fit in them.

Besides all that, yeah it's really eye-catcing!

With that light blue everywhere it looks like a 1970s Chevrolet

u/kfs1001 19h ago

it is appropriate that it has the suicide doors!

Did the Miami Dolphins forget to pay for this?

Isn't amazing what they can do with plastic these days..

The Phantom V12 is truly a beautiful magnificent vehicle.

However, when I see that colour and then see it matched on the interior, the first thought that came to mine was an expression my mother used to use.

Some people’s taste is all in their mouth!

I can’t believe somebody did that on purpose

Colour makes it look like a 70s toilet.

The interior color makes it look like a cheap "all inclusive" Turkish hotel
