2013 Rolls Royce Phantom Series II
http://www.youcar.tv
In the first half of the 20th century, Sir Henry Royce famously urged his employees to strive for perfection in all that they did -- and "to take the best that exists and make it better". Today Rolls-Royce Motor Cars continues to embrace the finest principles of its founding father by proudly presenting Phantom Series II at the 2012 Geneva Motor Show. Reflecting the new world in which we live, this pinnacle family of cars -- including Phantom Saloon, Phantom Drophead Coupé and Phantom Coupé -- have been thoughtfully updated with contemporary yet timeless design enhancements that frame the introduction of cutting-edge technologies which significantly improve the car's drive-train, ease-of-use and connectivity."From launch in 2003, the Rolls-Royce Phantom established itself as the benchmark in automotive luxury, a reputation it has held ever since," said Torsten Müller-Ötvös, CEO of Rolls-Royce Motor Cars. "These cars are timeless in their appeal, but technology moves rapidly and we cannot afford to stand still".
Rolls - Royce PHANTOM limousine serie II 2013 salon de Geneve 2012 v12 6,75
Présenté au Geneva Motors Show, voici la fameuse Rolls-Royce Phantom, véhicule de rêve et de démesure réservé à l'élite la plus fortuné au monde, inutile de présenté la plus célèbre marque de voiture de luxe de part le monde. Ici il s'agit du vaisseau amirale de la marque Britannique malgré le fait qu'elle soit la propriété de BMW.
Ce paquebot 5 étoiles est mu pas un monstrueux V12 de 6, 75 litres à l'appétit tout aussi vorace car il englouti environ 10,5 litres sur l'autoroute et plus de 22 litres en ville sans trop le titiller. Les performances sont elles aussi d'un autre monde, au plutôt d'une autre planète car la Bête de 2,7 tonnes abat le 0 à 100 km/h en 6,1 secondes....
Selon Sir Henri Royce, la puissance est comme sur toutes les Rolls "suffisante" donc ne nous attardons pas dessus !
Le rêve et la démesure a tout de même un prix, celui du rêve ou environ 400 000 €
On ne peut pas vraiment dire que la Rolls Royce Phantom soit dépassée... Mais la technologie évolue sans cesse et la grande limousine britannique date quand même de 2003. D'où l'arrivée de cette Série II, qui pousse le design, les sensations de conduite et la technologie encore un cran vers le haut.
L'année prochaine, Rolls-Royce perdra son plus grand concurrent, puisque la Maybach va quitter le marché. La marque sœur de BMW ne se repose toutefois pas sur ses lauriers. Car comme le disait Sir Henry Royce, il faut toujours viser la perfection et « ce qui se fait de mieux aujourd'hui peut encore être amélioré ».
C'est pourquoi la famille Phantom (Saloon, Drophead Coupé et Coupé) s'offre une petite refonte. Et Rolls-Royce est la première marque qui propose de série des optiques fonctionnant entièrement au moyen de diodes LED. Cette technologie offre une lumière plus blanche et plus naturelle, qui fatigue moins le conducteur. La direction et l'intensité du faisceau lumineux s'adaptent automatiquement aux conditions de roulage. Ces nouveaux feux s'intègrent dans un bouclier avant redessiné. Le constructeur n'a toutefois pas touché à la forme typique de la calandre, bien que celle-ci soit plus large sur les versions Drophead Coupé et Coupé.
Équipement dernier cri
Bien que la Phantom doit être intemporelle, elle ne peut faire l'impasse sur les dernières technologies et tendances. Le constructeur a donc renouvelé le système multimédia du modèle. La navigation présente désormais une vue en 3D, avec des cartes topographiques et des guides touristiques intégrés. Les informations, cartes ou vidéos sont par ailleurs affichées sur un écran plus grand (8,8 pouces). Le conducteur appréciera aussi que plusieurs caméras lui facilitent les manœuvres de parking.
On note encore une nouvelle boîte automatique à 8 rapports et un différentiel arrière peaufiné, qui améliorent les qualités routières de la Phantom. Sous le capot, on trouve toujours le moteur 6.75 litres V12 à essence, dont les émissions de CO2 sont toutefois réduites de 10% (de 385 à 347 g/km).
La Rolls-Royce Phantom de 2003 a été dessinée par Marek Djordjevic, s'inspirant des Phantom des années 1930 et de la Silver Wraith des années 1950. C'est la première Rolls-Royce dessinée sous l'ère BMW.
L'intérieur est luxueux : fauteuils en cuir moelleux, épaisses moquettes en laine d'agneau, essences de bois, au choix : acajou figuré, ronce de noyer, érable piqué, tibourbou noir, ronce d'orme ou chêne.
Le moteur n'est autre que le V12 6 L à injection directe de la BMW 760i réalésé à 6,75 L, cylindrée mythique de l'ancien V8 Rolls-Royce.
La Rolls-Royce Phantom est construite dans la nouvelle usine (Goodwood plant) construite par BMW, à Goodwood, en Angleterre.
Particularités
Les portes arrière sont en ouverture antagoniste, c'est-à-dire qu'elles s'ouvrent en sens inverse (on parle de « portes suicide »), à l'image des calèches d'autrefois. C'est la première réapparition de ce principe en automobile depuis les années 1950 aux États-Unis, ou plus récemment, sur la Mazda RX-8. Elles dissimulent également un parapluie.
Le logo Rolls-Royce sur les jantes reste toujours orienté vers le haut.
Le radiateur est, comme sur toutes les Rolls-Royce, orné du Spirit of Ecstasy, lequel est rétractable.

Maybach 62--D&M Motorsports Video Test Drive Review 2012 Chris Moran
Maybach 62 Video Test Drive and Review with Chris Moran. Presented by D&M Motorsports.
For the exceedingly well-heeled who have decided that only the biggest and best will do, there's the V12-powered Maybach 62 ultraluxury sedan. Resurrecting the nameplate from a line of indulgent, custom-built and mostly chauffeur-driven cars from the 1920s to the '40s, it's one of the most exclusive automobiles in the world.
Actually, there are two different Maybach sedans: the 62 and its smaller 57 stablemate. The difference is their length in meters (6.2 and 5.7), with the 62 -- as the longest production sedan currently available -- using its extra length for the benefit of rear-seat passengers. But its size alone is only part of the story, as virtually every conceivable premium luxury is part of the opulent Maybach experience. From world-class leather and wood trim to its multiple lighting schemes and feathered-pillow head restraints, the sumptuous Maybach 62 caters to nearly every reasonable (and even unreasonable) demand.
For those wishing to add even more speed to their surroundings, the 62 S model is also available with an absurdly powerful V12. Regardless, the real action is out back where highly adjustable twin seats split by a center console offer lucky passengers not only DVD and CD entertainment but also a refrigerated compartment in which to store the bubbly.
With a base price of nearly $400,000 when new, each Maybach 62 is built to order according to its buyer's individual whims from a Maybach "studio" located within select Mercedes dealerships. Though it has few rivals, its obvious primary competition is the Rolls-Royce Phantom. Although each sedan will provide a suitable ultraluxury experience, personal taste will be the deciding factor. If we had to choose, we'd likely go with the Roller due to its unrivalled heritage and more conspicuous styling.
Current Maybach 62
The Maybach 62 ultraluxury sedan is offered in two styles: the regular 62 and the higher-performance 62 S. While similar to the Maybach 57, its greater length and interior volume make it more suitable as a chauffeur-driven vehicle. Just about everything is "standard," but there are plenty of opportunities to customize the vehicle with optional features like three-across rear seating, a glass partition and intercom, as well as specific paint colors and interior trim. The S version offers its own unique visual cues like carbon-fiber cabin accents, a restyled grille and dual Exhaust tips.
Both Maybach 62 models are powered by variants of the twin-turbocharged V12 Mercedes-Benz uses in its most exclusive vehicles. The regular 62 makes do with a merely prodigious 543 horsepower and 664 pound-feet of torque from its 5.5-liter engine, but the 62 S features an otherworldly 604 hp and 738 lb-ft of torque from a 6.0-liter engine.
One of the more notable features inside the 62 is the optional Business Package, which converts this ultraluxury sedan into a rolling executive suite. It includes a dual-port wireless Internet router, Bluetooth capability and a multipurpose rear storage area. A Bluetooth Canon printer integrated into the center console is also offered separately.
As the Maybach 62 is intended to have a chauffeur up front, the primary focus is on ride quality -- and the 62, of course, doesn't disappoint. The driving experience itself is much like that of the shorter 57's, with the V12 generating an abundance of thrust and brakes that are capable of effortlessly bringing motion to a halt. Although it wouldn't be our first choice for negotiating tight, congested cityscapes every day, it is shorter than the typical stretched American limousine for those with such a need. Plus, it's a tad nicer than a Town Car.
Past Maybach 62 Models
The Maybach 62 made a fashionable splash as a debutante back in 2004. It satisfied in most every way, as one might expect of a car costing more than twice as much as the next most expensive Benz-built luxury sedan. The Maybach hasn't changed much through the years, except for 2006 when all models came standard with the Parking Assist System and a new Business Package was offered that turned the 62 into an office on wheels. In 2007, a high-performance 62 S model joined the lineup with its more powerful engine, sport-tuned suspension and unique appointments inside and out.
