A Closer Look at the Rolls-Royce Ghost First Generation (2010–2020)
The Rolls-Royce Ghost was first introduced back in 2010 and was produced until 2020. Think of it as the “smaller brother” of the Rolls-Royce Phantom, designed to bring top-of-the-line luxury to a younger, more dynamic crowd. The name "Ghost" pays tribute to the legendary Silver Ghost model from 1906, known for its reliability and innovation. The first generation Ghost is built on the same platform as the BMW 7 Series (F01), but it's got that unmistakable and classy design that's all about Rolls-Royce. The design was led by Ian Cameron, a well-known designer who blended classic luxury with modern elements perfectly.
Tech Specs and Highlights of the Original
The Rolls-Royce Ghost is powered by a 6.6-liter (0.4 cu. in.) V12 engine that churns out 570 horsepower and an impressive 780 Nm (575 lb-ft) of torque. Despite tipping the scales at over 2.4 tons (5,291 pounds), this beast can go from 0 to 60 mph in just 4.9 seconds. The top speed is electronically limited to 155 mph (250 km/h). It comes with an 8-speed ZF automatic transmission that offers super smooth and barely noticeable shifts. Plus, it features a fancy air suspension system and that special "Magic Carpet Ride" feel that just glides over any bumps in the road. And let's not forget about the exquisite attention to detail: from the hand-stitched leather upholstery to the mahogany accents inside, everything is crafted to perfection.
1/18 Scale Miniature Model from Kyosho
The mini model shown here is a stunning 1/18 scale version made from high-quality diecast, coming from the well-respected brand Kyosho. It captures the essence of the original perfectly and is a must-have for collectors. The elegant white paint shines with smooth, precise lines that reflect the car's silhouette nicely. The iconic "Spirit of Ecstasy" figure sits proudly on the hood, beautifully detailed. The front is dominated by that big, shiny grille, flanked by authentically designed headlights. The side profile showcases clear lines and polished chrome details that immediately grab attention. The little touches like the door handles and chrome side mirrors totally finish off the picture of a meticulously crafted mini model.
Interesting Details and Collectible Value
The Rolls-Royce logos and lettering are clearly visible in all the right spots, showing off the model's attention to detail. The wheels match the original's design and highlight the car's elegant character. Inside, you can see a detailed depiction of the luxury seating and dashboard. These features make this model a fantastic pick for collectors who love detail and have a passion for classic luxury cars. Plus, Kyosho's model is particularly sought after by diecast collectors because of its scale and precise craftsmanship. Since this model doesn’t come from any movie or series, it stands out as a representative tribute to a luxury icon.
