Discussion - Rolls-Royce Ghost Coupe to Pack 600 Horsepower?

Description: A Rolls-Royce is not a performance vehicle. It's a luxurious grand tourer. Until a few years ago, Rolls listed the output of its engines as "adequate" or "more than adequate"....

Like the old days of Jaguar; "we don't have tilt wheels because we put the steering wheel in the right place already". Love some Big Money confidence.

I think that "adequate" is a far more badass way of describing engine output than "600 hp."

cool, but dont bring back the name corniche

Description: To put that into perspective, consider that the Ferrari 458 Italia has "only" 562 horsepower. The Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG has 571. McLaren gave the MP4-12C 592 hp before increasing it recently...

@Bruno: IKR!! If a twin-turbo V12 with 600 hp doesn't get to threes, something is wrong!!!

If they trimmed some weight it could get into the threes

Those headlights are similar to those of the new Chrysler 300C

Most people who buys RRs don't care about price, performance, or fuel economy. They just want the bigger more comfortable Phantom.

Because the guy parked beside you in a phantom would make you look like a you're driving a bug. Haha nah kidding, I love the ghost

I would honestly take this over a phantom. its faster, lighter, half the cost, better milage, and its still a Rolls Royce. Why wouldnt you want one?!
