The Rolls-Royce Ghost, as you know, is pitched as a driver’s car. OK, it’s not a sports sedan. But being based on a BMW 7-Series and boasting a turbocharged V12 engine, the mighty brute can get out of its own way pretty good. Now there is a new version of the Ghost called the V-Spec, and it’s almost certainly the sportiest Roller ever built.
The Rolls-Royce Ghost V-Spec is powered by tweaked version of the same BMW V12 with 600 horsepower (570 in the standard version). Mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission, this engine can take the Ghost from 0 to 60 mph in 4.7 seconds, which is on the par with the fastest saloons with an AMG, M, or RS badge.
Despite its amazing turn of speed and performance, the V-Spec is still a Ghost, which is still a Rolls-Royce, which is still the best luxury marque on the planet. So it comes with bespoke silver leather upholstery and black stitching, creating a wonderful look when combined with the Piano Black trim pieces on the dashboard. What sets it apart from the normal models are a number of V-Spec badges found on the running boards and on the seats (embroidered), 21-inch Wraith wheels, and chrome tailpipes.
In terms of equipment, Rolls-Royce Ghost V-Spec is fully-loaded and also boasts a panoramic roof, rear-seat entertainment system, and massage seats. The cost of all this magnificence is rather dear, at 330,820 Euros.
