They ought to let the customer customize the pattern of the "starry night" interior lighting, because it is rather gaudy. I'd have the stars concentrate on a large RR logo with "arms" of stars swirling out from it, like a galaxy. =D I have no illusion that that is also vulgar.

This is the definitive RR without a doubt, and that glamourous roof constellation should look marvelous in person. 10/10

Nice but over-rated....buyers just want to be exclusive. I dont see how this can cost over 2 top ranged Bentleys.

Two top ranged Bentleys? The Azure costs around 360.000e, the prehistoric Arnage T is well over 300.000e and this marvel will surely cost under 450.000e. Using that twisted logic we can say a Veyron costs three times more and, still, I would personally get a Phantom Coup?? instead any time. At these levels you don't go around comparing prices, you just get what you enjoy the most, period.

hmmm... the coupe and convertible have their ups and downs. the cabrio has the wooden deck thingo but is heavier and less agile and the coupe is sportier but lacks the lust...

The lust? You mean the poser stance, or extravagance factor, because a 2-door coup?? will always have a cleaner, sleeker elegant shape. Same happens with the Porsche 911 Coup?? vs Cabriolet.

I dunno what to say. The side profile looks a tad disproportionate (like a shortened phantom) to me because either the wheel arches are too close to each other or that it's too tall and boxy. The drophead coupe (with the top down) just seems to have better proportions although they are the same on paper. Also, looks too much like a drophead with a permanent hardtop. I think they could've incorporated the roof a little better into the rest of the body. I'll have to see it in person to be more decisive, as all Rolls Royces are beautiful cars.

Given than the Phantom has the proportions of a limousine rather than those of a sedan, a shortened version is a good thing, and the "sacred" proportions that give RR their incomparable style (two wheels in height) have been respected. This is a 5.60m long-car with roughly a 3.35m wheelbase, which means a Toyota Aygo could quite fit in between. Conclusion: as with most sculptural cars, a modern Rolls Royce needs to be evaluated (and admired) in person.
