Auto Expo Macau 2012
Rolls-Royce Motor Cars will be showcasing
Phantom Series II at Auto Expo Macau 2012 for the first time. Phantom
Series II Extended Wheelbase and Phantom Series II Coupé will be on
display CotaiExpo™, Hall E, Booth 02 at The Venetian Macao-Resort-Hotel
from 26 to 28 October.
Phantom Series II is the latest evolution
of the pinnacle, super luxury car since Phantom was launched in 2003 and
established itself as the benchmark for the segment. Today, Rolls-Royce
Motor Cars continues to embrace the finest principles of its founding
father, Sir Henry Royce who famously urged employees, “to take the best
that exists and make it better.”
For 2012, the pinnacle Phantom family has
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. LED Headlights, a new 8-speed automatic gearbox and rear
differential are some of the updates incorporated into the new range of
Phantom cars.
Showcased during the exposition are highly
bespoke Phantom Series II Extended Wheelbase and Phantom Series II Coupé
cars. Finished in Infinity Black and graced by a gold Spirit of Ecstasy,
Phantom Series II Extended Wheelbase further demonstrates the
capabilities of the Rolls-Royce bespoke team in the interior of the car
by featuring drinks cabinet and coolbox for individual seats.
The Mazarine Blue Phantom Series II Coupé
comes with a brushed steel bonnet and is graced by an illuminated Spirit
of Ecstasy complemented by illuminated bespoke treadplates. Starlight
headlining – one of the most popular Bespoke requests in Asia – is also
featured on both cars.
“We are delighted to present Phantom
Series II in Macau for the first time.” said Paul Harris, Regional
Director, Rolls-Royce Motor Cars Asia Pacific. “Phantom sparked a
Rolls-Royce renaissance in 2003, establishing itself as the benchmark
for automotive luxury and refinement. Our discerning customer base in
Macau has long embraced Phantom as the perfect conveyance in which to do
business or relax in imperious luxury. As a result, the China (Macau)
International Automobile Exposition is an excellent platform for us to
showcase our cars.”
Dan Balmer, General Manager for
Rolls-Royce Motor Cars Asia Pacific, added, “A Rolls-Royce Phantom is a
blank canvas from which our customers commission their highly Bespoke
motor cars to reflect their tastes, lifestyles and even businesses.”
Mr. Samuel Sun, General Manager,
Rolls-Royce Motor Cars Macau, said, “We are pleased to present Phantom
Series II during this automobile exposition in Macau. Both Phantom and
Ghost have been very well-received by Macau customers. With the opening
of our showroom in March, we continue to see potential and a positive
business response in the Macau market.”
