Rolls-Royce Phantom
The Phantom VII limousine begins its final run after a 14-year career. Production of the 2017 models ends December 31, 2016, and a new Phantom will be revealed in 2018. As the first Rolls produced under owner BMW's regime, the 2700-kilogram Phantom is surprisingly fast thanks to its 453-horsepower, 6.7-litre V12. It is hand built and comes in no fewer than 44,000 colours, not including all the leathers and wood accents hidden behind the rear-hinged doors.
