How f'n big is a Rolls Royce?

[pdisme]

I just saw someone I know from real life in a picture with a late model Rolls Royce and the car completely dwarfed him and he's not a tiny dude. Are those vehicles really that humongous? I've never run into a Rolls in real life that was newer than the 80's.

Bigger than me. I call them 'living room on wheels'. :D

They're pretty damn big. there was a silver one parked outside the walmart on the corner of dale mabry and erlich last week.

I see a black maybach on dale every once in a while too.

I have a customer here in orlando that has a new bright red (like fire engine) Phantom that I'm cleaning next week. The car is HUGE - I'll get some pics of it parked next to his Gallardo spider and you can compare lol

LOL, you have got to post some pix of that, it must look massive compared to just about any car but especially a low slung exotic.

Maybe this will help, Phantom next to a 360

LOL, the Ferrari is like the size of the hood. :lol2: I can't imagine having a car that large, there wouldn't be room anywhere you park unless everywhere you go has valet.

Usually when you own a Roller, everywhere you go DOES have Valet. Or at least a drive thru :D

I was looking at buying a Phantom last year, but after some negotiations I realised my garage was too short! I need a larger garage to accomodate the car!

I just hate the stock wheels though!

I can't imagine you'd have fun driving that Mike, it would feel like driving a bath tub full of water after all your other vehicles. :)

It's a little more tricky than the Arnage T, but I think I can manage :D

I drove a Bentley Azure down from Lake Tahoe to SF this past summer. I felt like I was driving a land yacht, no one passed me and I did it in just under 3 hours. I think the phantom is even longer. It’s nice to be chofered around in one though :)

I have to imagine it's like my old 1983 Town Car, just soft and bouncy, come to think of it, that was actually my favorite car, simplly because it had so much character.

The Phantom is slightly longer (the LWB version) the it's much much higher than the Arnage as well. Like AgentX said, it's like a living room on wheels!

Anything with umbrellas that pop out of the back doors is pimp!

hahaha, yeah I was shocked when I saw that as well. Those doors are so thick they could be bombproof!

its also nice to sit in the back and hit a button to close the door. love that car.
