Rolls-Royce has unveiled a limited edition Phantom Bespoke Collection for the Middle East.

The exclusive sedan can be customized by Rolls-Royce's bespoke design service or ordered directly in this unique two-tone Arizona Sun and English White paint scheme. This particular car features a Crème Light and Saddle Tan two-tone interior, hand-knotted silk rugs, and moccasin carpets. Other design touches include "Mother of Pearl" wood inlays and silver dhow (an Arab sailboat) accents on the door trim and front passenger side dashboard.

Only six Bespoke Collection Phantoms will be produced, and they will start arriving in the Middle East later this month.

I'm just going to pre-empt most of the people who will post on this article, and say only in the Middle East. And I'm with Hardboy, I'd take a Conquistador.

Quite. We seem to have located the only custom Rolls-Royce to make a Mansory product look good.

the car seemed to look even cooler without the B-pillar. pay attention people from rolls-royce and bentley! if mazda can do it on their rx-8 or bmw on the clubman, why can't you?

In the RX8 case, you have to open the front door to be able to open the rear door. I think thats the reson that stopped the designers from using this arrangement in the RR

Its a shame that the U.S. market doesnt have the same demand for this product. Thats one thing I love about the Middle East.

Rumor has it that the corpse of Liberace, held fast to the design studio wall with golden staples, cast many an approving glance over the shoulders of the designers over the course of this vehicle's gestation.

i like 2 toned RR phantoms.but NOT these colors ! i think its fine on the outside but it definitely ruins the luxurious interior it has...

Interior is okay suit feels and heat of the middle east. Exterior? If you like the colors and you have the money well? I think RR can do better than just paint bonnet, roof and boot one color adn the rest another. Carmakers have little imagaination when it comes to paint schemes these days. They should look for clues from motor racing teams.

Road cars would look stupid with race car livery-esque paint jobs. Painting certain panels in different colours is much more cohesive than painting lovely race car patterns all over the place.

Yes because I'm sure people in the middle east would love a car that reminds them of goat's milk, sand, and camels. You look out the window and you see the same colours as inside the car, makes for a very interesting ride. But of course all 6 are sold already, because well in the land of more $ than education and taste having the newest limited edition is more important than actually driving the car. Me personally i would not touch a Phantom, it's fine and dandy the way it is. MAYBE get the stainless steel hood option, on a nice dark metallic blue, with a cognac interior, with Brazilian cherry wood trim. That would suffice for me.

Oh you're sure? I wonder if you ever been to Doha or Dubai.. I mean at these times, not pre 1950.. Keep your stereotyping for yourself radmeister.

Have you ever even had goat's milk? It's pretty good and it makes for great cheese! None the less, I am glad this thing is 'exclusive' to the middle east, I wont have to gauge my eyes out when i see one here. Like that disgusting G class for the Dubai royal family.

it really shows from some of the users comments how ignorant and immature they r by trash talking about the middle east.. this social group still thinks we live in tents and ride camels while the fact is we might be even more civilized and well known than they are... if you don't like a certain car then just comment ON the car NOT on a country or region... i really hope WCF doesn't become another kids playground
