Rolls-Royce Phantom
In 2003, the Phantom signalled a changing of the guard, as BMW took ownership of the brand. This model replaced the Silver Seraph and got people talking with controversial exterior lines that still haven't changed. Since then, the Phantom has been updated here and there, and a led to a coupe and an eccentric cabriolet. All three versions are powered by a 6.7-litre V12 with 453 horsepower. The transmission is an 8-speed automatic.
