What is it? A plane, train, no: it’s The Rolls Phantom VI
Someone who goes to the same gym I do has one of these puppies. I can’t say I’ve seeing many of these behemoths on the road though. They’re large, not particularly sexy, and they cost a fortune (small fortune in today’s inflation).
The Phantom goes for about $350,000-$400,000, so even the expensive mustard commercials won’t do for this baby. Asking if the car next to you has expensive mustard to slab on your sandwich is more akin to a Jag commercial. But when you get into Rolls’ territory, you’d better own a big company at the very least!
Although Astons, Bentleys, Lamborghinis, Porsches, etc., are only for the very elite: Ferrari and Rolls are unbeatable names. It seems that if you can afford an Aston Martin or Bentley; you’re doing well in the game of life…but if you can afford a Rolls or Ferrari, then you’re king of the hill, “a number one!”
