Rolls Royce Ghost Spied in White Livery

Effortless grace

Just days after catching a two-tone Rolls-Royce Ghost, our spy photographers have managed to get the first pictures of a prototype decked out in white. Although the photos don't provide any new details about the upcoming entry-level model, they show the Ghost in one of the brand's most popular colors.

Commonly referred to as the "baby" Rolls-Royce, the 2010 Ghost is actually a massive car as it measures 5399mm (212.6 inches) in length, 3295mm (129.7 inches) in wheelbase, 1948mm (76.7 inches) in width, and 1550mm (61 inches) in height.

Power comes from a new 6.6-liter turbocharged V12 engine with more than 500 bhp. The engine is connected to an eight-speed ZF gearbox which was tuned to deliver unparalleled shift comfort and responsiveness. In order to keep this beast under control, Rolls-Royce has equipped the Ghost with an advanced air suspension system that offers dynamic handling while preserving a luxurious ride quality.

The Ghost will be officially unveiled at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September, with production beginning shortly thereafter.

When I first saw the concept car of this I thought it was good looking, but now it keeps getting uglier

I thought most new Peformance/luxury cars look better in white. the Ghost in white is a big no-no! Oh and I see they kept the same plastic grill....

It looks ugly! even the rear looks like a cheap Korean car! and the grill looks plasticy either! I prefer to save my money and buy an S600 over this.

"you don't know anything about Rolls Royce , do you ?" What's to know? All he has to do is stick his head up his own arse and that pretty much sums the type of person that purchases this over price & over-hyped pos (yes, I said that!). Talk about a wallflower. I'd rather put a lazy boy chair in the back of a pickup truck! OK, maybe not but considering what else you could buy for the money it still leaves me with this question: WHY? I like the older (by that, I mean really old) RR designs but as of recently, or past 30 years, could they've at least let the look of the car match the price? You know, it's about time someone told them that you can only eat and dress so well.

That's not 'white livery'. It's just painted white.

they are some of the WORST looking wing mirrors ever attached to a car... it doesnt help that they stuck em on the doors either! and this is meant to be a rolls? hmm seems to be the BMW trend these days, design ugly cars, filling market segments no one knew existed just for the hell of it, cause they know because of the badge, or in this case the woman, (although not present in these photos but u get my point), on the bonnet they'll all sell! this is a tad disappointing in my lowly opinion!

In fact, IMO, the RR needn't get a test mule for their Ghost, because the production one is nearly the same look as the concept one, it's not a secret

The only people who buy White Royces are people looking to get into the wedding car game. It's a bad colour choice unless you cover it in ribbons and tie cans to the back.

why did they put on the sidemirrors from an SUV? Its so sad that RR is being pushed in this direction. RR used to be elegant and beutiful to look at. This just looks plastic and cheap. And yeah. Whats with the grill?? Shame to put a RR badge on this..
