What's New for the 2004 Rolls-Royce Phantom?
Now that BMW owns this venerable British luxury marque, the German automaker is making its first impact with the all-new 2004 Rolls-Royce Phantom, an ultra-luxury sedan set to battle the likes of the Bentley Arnage and Maybach models. Intensive use of aluminum keeps this massive car's curb weight below the three-ton mark while a potent 435-horsepower 6.75-liter V12 motor gets the Rolls-Royce Phantom from rest to 60 mph in less than six seconds thanks to 531 pound-feet of torque available starting at 1,000 rpm. With BMW tuning the foundation, this is one Roller that handles as well as it coddles. Traditional styling cues, a bold chrome waterfall grille and the requisite Spirit of Ecstasy hood ornament proclaim that this is nothing less than a Rolls-Royce. The car is loaded with equipment and technology, yet the cabin is quaintly traditional and puts reclusive passengers well behind the thick C-pillars and away from prying eyes.
Advantages of the 2004 Rolls-Royce Phantom:
BMW engineering underneath the sheetmetal
Bold yet elegant design forms
Traditional cabin appointments combined with modern technology

True that. Not just love stories. It's foolishness to compare any part of life with movies.

YES. BMW owns R-R and Mini Cooper. They used to own Land Rover, but they then sold it to Ford.
