New Rolls Royce Phantom (big photos)........

Rolls Royce cars were never that great looking, but this one is fairly ugly (very pimp though). Nice interior.

If the money was even close to the same (within $50k) I'm buying the Maybach 57 10 times out of 10.

it looks as if it someone compressed the car from the sides. Not TOO bad, but not that great either. Interior doesnt impress me all that much

That car is butt ugly. The interior stinks too. No way. For that money, it should have drop dead looks.

I like the interior because of its high quality look, RR "never" had crazy interiors......they were always conservative with very few buttons and knobs.

Only thing I don't like about the interior is this half console shit with a column shifter......its a Rolls Royce, not a GM SUV (although its the size of one).

Just a photo to show just how big this rig is, either that or the production line worker is a dwarf.

The front of it looks like a Freightliner and the rear looks like a Lincoln Towncar... I'd still pimp one though

Ugly. Ugly in and out. Looks like a SUV from the front, with a SUV interior.

I don't know why anyone in their right mind would buy that...except for pimp factor and the ability to say "because I can".

You obviously aren't going to be driving that yourself...so why not just get a REAL limo.
