Meanwhile, our own spy photographers dropped a new set of images of a Wraith prototype undergoing winter tests in our email box as well.

We Piece Together the First Official Look at the New Rolls Royce Wraith Coupe

Monday, January 21, 2013


Just last week, Rolls-Royce released the name of its all-new Ghost-based coupe model, the Wraith, adding that it will make its global premiere at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show in early March.

Britain's most famous carmaker also told us that in the weeks leading up to the show, it plans to "reveal additional information and a series of teaser images", which it did, beginning today with a smoke screen-style teaser on its public website where users can move their mouse to divulge bits and pieces of the car.

We understand that can be annoying, so we patched up all those pictures to create the single image you see here, and which provides us with the best look yet at the brand's new performance coupe.

U Spy: New Rolls Royce Ghost Coupe Filmed Lapping the Nürburgring

Friday, October 12, 2012


Thanks to CarScoop reader and Nürburgring dweller Timo S., we now have the first ever action footage of Rolls Royce's upcoming Ghost-based coupe, the production name of which, remains a tightly guarded secret for now.

The spy video affords us a look at how Goodwood's new Flying Lady tackles the corners and straights of the Nürburgring Nordschleife track at speeds and angles you don't normally see a Rolls Royce model.

Spy Shots: Swanky Rolls Royce Ghost Coupe Visits the 'Ring for Some High Speed Laps

Wednesday, October 10, 2012


The Nürburgring track is one of the last places you would expect to see a Rolls Royce, but if the rumors turn out to be true, the new Ghost-based Coupe may feel at home even here.

You see, the new two-door model, the name of which remains a mystery for now, is said to be the sportiest, fastest and best handling model ever to wear the "Spirit of Ecstasy" ornament on its hood.

While utilizing the platform and mechanical hardware of the Ghost sedan, itself related to the BMW 7-Series, the new Coupe will benefit from a shorter chassis with several upgrades including sportier suspension, brake and steering systems as well as a tuned version of the saloon's 6.6-liter twin turbo V12 engine believed to produce 600-horses or more.

Spy Shots: Rolls Royce Preparing Ghost-Based Coupe Model

Wednesday, July 25, 2012


The expansion of the Rolls Royce range with the lower-priced and smaller-sized Ghost sedan in 2010 was only the beginning for the Goodwood-based luxury carmaker.

In about a year's time, possibly at the 2013 Frankfurt Motor Show, Rolls Royce will present the first offshoot of the Ghost family in the form a new coupe model, rumored to revive the Corniche nameplate.

Carscoop's photographers caught a heavily disguised prototype of the Ghost coupe model running on the streets of Munich, Germany.

The Bavarian group's technicians tried to fool us that the car had regular front doors and smaller, suicide-style rear doors, but look closely at the spy pictures and it becomes clear that they are fake and that the car will be equipped with two suicide front doors, just like the larger Phantom Coupe.

Scoop: Rolls Royce Phantom gets Ready for its First Facelift

Thursday, January 19, 2012


Admittedly and regardless if it fits your taste or not, the BMW Group has done a superb in renovating the Rolls Royce brand, which delivered 3,538 cars in 2011, up 31 per cent on the previous year’s 2,711 units, and a new sales record in the firm's 107-year history surpassing the 3,347 cars it sold in 1978.

The rebirth of the Rolls Royce under the control of the Bavarian firm started with the extravagant Phantom that was introduced in 2003. Even though nine years is a long time in a vehicle's product cycle, the BMW Group doesn't intend to replace the Phantom just yet.
