- 2023 Rolls-Royce Phantom review by The Straight Pipes. The Rolls-Royce Phantom is putting down 563 horsepower and 664 lb-ft of torque from a Twin Turbo 6 3/4 Liter V12. At $628,300 USD (direct conversion approximately $845,000 CAD), would you take it over the Rolls-Royce Ghost, Rolls-Royce Cullinan, an older Rolls-Royce Phantom, or a small yacht?

What’s your favorite Rolls-Royce on tsp.TrueCar.com?
DAWN
The least expensive ghost
Wraith for sure
Ghost. To be perfectly honest, I think I prefer the Ghost over the Phantom. The Ghost's styling is the perfect modern interpretation of what a Rolls-Royce should be, without completely abandoning its roots, like Mercedes have done with the latest S-class.
Dawn. Only cabriolet with 4 adults fitting in comfortably
“Psh my driver wouldn’t be caught dead in a Maybach” - the person buying this
One advertised feature that Maybach has that Rolls doesn't talk about is: factory installed armor plating, which, for guys like us, is a major concern.
@@gmb858 what about dor squeeking?
@@gmb858I agree , I also prefer the subtleness of the maybach if styled correctly.
Facts 😂
@@gmb858 when You driven in a RR you don’t have enemies, after all it is Your Country, bought fair and square… 😂
My friend in LA had a Phantom (with aftermarkets 24" rims) back in 2006. My best friend and I got to be a passenger in it for a couple of hours. Most comfortable car I have experienced by a land slide to this day. It was like riding a magic carpet and we were totally isolated from the world around us. Definitely my dream daily driver.
You must have never ridden in late 80’s / early 90’s Cadillac’s!!!
It’s funny you mentioned magic carpet ride. That’s what Rolls-Royce calls their suspension systems. You literally cannot feel a bump in the road while riding in a Rolls-Royce. It’s pure automotive perfection that is unlike anything else. There’s a reason why Rolls-Royce has no real competition in the ultra luxury market.
@@jaygats3842 I can almost guarantee a modern phantom rides better then an 80s Cadillac as good as they ride for the price, there’s so much money put into it just riding insanely good there’s no way it doesn’t ride better.
What does yo friend do for a living? I need to know
@@jaygats3842 People will hate me for this, but a 1995 Cadillac Fleetwood is legitimately more comfortable than a BMW 7-Series imo
It is obvious how well insulated it is. The acoustics are like a studio, rather than a car. Just listen to how clean and echo free their voices are.
I was on the fence, but you guys sold me. My next vehicle will be a Rolls Royce Phantom!
Congrats!
Lol sure they did , enjoy your Honda civic 😂
@@frankcastle1578 Hey, don't knock my car. Yes, it's 14 years old. But it runs and it's paid for.
Flex on em Gerald

Your audio recording gear is so good that when you whisper around 8:00, you can hear you two clearly. It also speaks to the sound dampening in that vehicle.
What is someone honks at them. Would they even hear it.
Well,the Phantom is my favorite so thank you very much! I enjoyed the vid very much. I currently own an 87 Silver Spur for 20 years now and love her to death.
These vehicles never 'look' old whatever the year. Would like an older Phantom (can't afford the new one either) but I need a place to store her.
I wish this level of craftsmanship and artistic expression was available to more folks. So classy and inspiring
Beautiful car. I’ve always had love for both Rolls & Bentley, their stuff is on another level of luxury.
Still cant compete with S-Class or Maybach.
Rolls Royce can learn alot from S-Class.
@@ElectronicHouseFlash Like what?
@@ElectronicHouseFlash you’re delusional. Rolls Royce is the pinnacle of luxury
@@mg77045 If you want to get a better Car than Rolls Royce the only choose is Maybach. RR is only for prestige, Maybach has the better Technology and History. RR is good for show off, a classic beautiful English Car.
@@ElectronicHouseFlash The S Class, is just a tarted up German Taxi, and the Maybach is just a tarted up S Class.
The one thing that bothers me In Rolls cars, is that the driver can close the front doors electrically, but not the rear ones. The driver should be able to control all the doors.
I actully knew a guy that traded in a civic in for a new Phantom. He said the RR dealer didn't even act jugmental about it. The employees were genuinely passionate about their cars.
That's an old trick at the car dealership, act happy to about the trade-in even if it will be over at LoBaller Wreckers getting weighed for scrap in about five minutes. It a psychological thing for the previous owner, the babies got a new loving home or something like that.
Starting my morning out with a banger!
For a lost voice, soar throat take a Halls Honey Lemon cough drop ONLY (the others for some reason don't work as well) and put it in some hot water so it melts and sip.
Thanks. My voice actually returned. The accord video was filmed after this one
You boys are killin it in Cali! The videos are amazing as usual. Can't wait for more.
Thanks. Still 2 more!
This is my dream car too because it's the last car to focus on true luxury BUT I don't like how ostentatious they are. That's what I loved about the VW Phaeton's concept. So I'd love this ride, feel, luxury and build quality but skinned as something less "look at me and how much money I have." Since these cars are designed to be status symbols, I doubt that car will ever exist and I'd just have to customize something but Rolls Royce quality with understatement is what I want.
That's why I prefer Bentley's. I hope to get a W12 Bentley Continental GT in the future. I think it is the perfect combination of speed, comfort, and luxury. They're also very sleek and more understated than Rolls Royces, which is nice.
@@Steve-sz4bh Still too showy for me.
The whole car is a peasant blocker
😂🤣
If I had this car, I’d drive without shoes on and make sure all my passengers take their shoes off 😂
These cars are always so cool. I will never own one, but it's always nice to see a video on these.
Buy one and you're gonna love it
@@life-pm5xl you have 800k that you can give me?
Yeah, the Circular DRLs looked a bit more haunting and "Ghost"-like if I may say. Fit the haunting beauty of the car
The clock in the dash is worth more than all my cars.
You know how the LED DRLs are a solid line, I'd love to see the entire headlamp as a solid block of light like Ironman's eyes
Soon, that’s definitely the future.
They already do that 2018-2022
@@brentboost2879 no
@@brentboost2879 the Grand Cherokee looking ones get close
very creative
Yes! So cool seeing it on video before I have mine! ❤️❤️
Nice review keep up the good work
Meet n greet in LA! Always say to myself, “crazy I been here in GTA” as well the 10 turns into the 1 lol
Ultimate car for its use, great video!
The wheels don't look terrible, but equally they also look like what you'd get on a modern Kia hybrid, not an RR costing hundreds of thousands.
The spinners would be okay if you're the buyer making serious bank playing in the NBA.
That intro with the doors was ::chefs Kiss::
Close to a million dollars is crazy when the s class and maybach exist, not the same level but still.
The rich just by these for the name.
True , however if you’re considering a car at this prize level money probably isn’t an object.
Exactly....The new RR Phantom refresh was about 500k -600K at max and now they just change some minor details like headlights and bump price to 800k, That is wild.
To be fair, this is million dollar quality
One of your best videos. You guys were chirping "living large" in Malibu. If people are looking for the coolest drive, the Malibu Canyon roads are the best.
It doesn’t matter if you’re in an F40 or a Civic, you’ll feel like a celebrity going through those canyons.
@@flacht_6 agreed.... even in a beater Honda Civic low rider...
Omg I love the videos and the reviews alike. The comedy and lightness in conversation is quite refreshing. Yuri is so cute 😍
Cleanest door close intro 👌
GREAT VID GUYS! I was expecting a Grey Poupon moment but never happened. Still gave it a thumbs up.
You guys always do a Great Job! Always been a fan of the Rolls Royce and so fun watching your review. New Subscriber! 🙂
Thanks so much Marty
Trading in my Forte for this💯👌
I just bought a 2013 Honda Odyssey with the rotary dial infotainment and I'm loving it lmao
Love the intro!
Great video! Unlike other highways in CA PCH is not “The PCH” its just “PCH” 😉
Amazing I had to buy 7 of them in all different colors.
Never Orange interior though, I ain't no Orange kinda dude LOL
But it definitely filled a hole in me soul for a few hours...
Damnnn you guys reviewed a phantom .. that’s eliteeeeee ❤
I'm impressed you can have the heated and cooled seats on at the same time. Wonder what that feels like haha
It’s like when an unstoppable force meets an unmovable object
Gear selector stalk? Or just gear selector?
Great vid as always, keep crushing it!
Those starry light headlamps are beautiful.
Bro why am I watching this with $100 in my account 😵
You guys should definitely come down to LA more often! Let us fans take you out for drinks/coffees/group rides through the mountains!
I'm sure they would, if you have the right kind of car. Like a Bugatti.
1:38 I like the fact you guys use a CX-5 as a cam mobile
What does the seat feel like when its being heated and cooled at the same time?
The slow self-closing doors started this one off with a chef’s kiss, lol
800k for Starlight Headlights is insane. This car was already expensive enough and now they just made it right under a million and it makes me not appreciate it even more
I always think of the end of the movie Arthur when Dudley Moore and Liza Minnelli are standing next to his Rolls-Royce, his chauffeur opens the back door of the car and Arthur ( Dudley Moore) asks Liza Minnelli
Dudley Moore: Have you ever been in a Rolls?
Liza Minnelli: No is it nice?
Dudley Moore: Well it doesn’t suck.
Dang love the vids
Get better soon Jakob.🙂 Good review fellas.👍
The dinner plate wheels definitely look the best.
2:00 Those Starlight Headliner Headlights SOLD ME!
The starlight headlights have less presence but the devil is in the details right? I love how they look from up close! ❤️
Also, Congratulations on your first Phantom review! 🙌🏻
The DRL’s look like the new Honda Accord now.
@@jr1885 Totally, I agree!
I think the details of this and the Rolls line are very much dated
@@Yachtzeee Yes, they are! I actually prefer the Bentley Flying Spur's details but I thought it was some sort of "Knowing your target audience" because for some reason I expect people of an older age buying a Rolls-Royce so maybe that's why they have more classic styling 🤔
@@Bmontepeque11 I 💯 agree with you on that. I even find the leather work far superior and a better ride.
you gus are great!
I like how you guys use the Mazda for rolling car shots 😂
LMAO, you two look tiiiiny in the intro in that huge ass car! 😂😆
Cali sun looks good on y’all…. Hope y’all enjoyed yourselves!
Preferred the last headlight design. They had more presence.
who’s to say this luxury barge doesn’t have presence
That’s how all of BMW is going sadly. Ultra minimalist
Yeah, these look like the new Honda Accord.
@@malwallace3041 BMW, minimalist? Yeah, right. They have some of the most offensive designs on the market currently.
@@jr1885 well, minimalist doesn't mean innoffensive
Yuri is so much better! Glad to see he seems happy :)
Definitely in a class of its own hopefully you can get yours soon Jakob
Yes please! More SoCal videos!!
Is there any chance you guys will ever drive a Bentley and/or Austin Martin (sedan) , seeing how you have driven Rolls Royce; McLaren, & Maybach?
Good that they spared RR, I like how they decided not to be too drastic like BMW did.
Also same 17:13
I've seen Lazer hazard on front beams if I may ask is it dangerous when you are in front and they come on
"You see the double R. This ain't no Lexus Jaguar"
When you get in, you’re not entering a world of high-end luxury, you’re being relieved of the world outside.
Thanks!
The man says please subscribe (7.55). I oblige because he sounded very honest.
Thanks for subscribing, we are always honest
Love the metal g shock
Can confirm as a Canadian whenever a website makes me put in a zip code i just type 90210.
OMG! M so glad because your success is our success the moment I saw the thumbnail of phantom 2023 being reviewed by both of u I was in tears of joy .
KEEP THIS CHANNEL GROWING
Thanks Rick 🙏
The quietest video that StraightPipes have ever made!
I will drive something else for the weekly grocery run and save the Rolls Royce for special occasions !
The glass over the dash reminds me of plastic wrapped furniture
Would have been interesting to go over the option list that the car had and how much they gouge, I mean charge for the various options. like $5000 for apple carplay etc
RR have an infinite option list. That video would go on for days.
They can make you a rolls royce fully plated in gold if you want. Just like he said the list is unlimited.
@@nicholasdipilla6993 and it’s all real for sure for sure
@@krane15they could mention 5 interesting options at least
@@stephancunningham3072plated gold isn’t like gold on a necklace or watch. It’s super thin. And any gold on something is usually 18K anyway so it’s 75% actual gold.
Hi guys;
The one thing the Rolls, didn't have was a partition, that separates, the driver from the passenger.
My mother rented a Rolls, for her birthday, decades ago and the chauffeur, asked to drop the partition, to ask directions, to the Joan Rivers, concert. Long Island, N.Y.
All the best
Shaun of New York City🗽
Perfect timing! A Nigerian prince is supposed to wire me a million dollars after I deposited money into his account, so I am thrilled to see a video of the car I am going to buy!
Long live the v12! Hold on to the very last min ol friend
Hi Pals, will we hear you guys on a Carmudgeon, or TsT Podcast perhaps?
Figure it's worth asking while you guys are down there. All the best!
The RR Phantom is in the top tier of luxury cars reserved for your Masters of the Universe (or people with a lot of money who want you to look at them). Personally, if I had one I wouldn't really care about the front seats. Unless it's the chauffer's day off, anyone who owns a Phantom belongs in the back seat. It's really too bad that Bentley stopped making the Mulsanne a few years ago.
That has Changed. A Lot of Rolls Royce Clients like to drive themselves
Do the 2023 pilot! Really looking forward to your thoughts
Lmao love that she rides on Continentals!
Nice job boys...
this car so amazing i love it
Asking Santa to bring me one of these for Christmas along with enough cash to pay for insurance, license, fees, and driving and maintenance for 100,000 miles. You don't have to gift wrap it!
I would think that this drive was one to treasure and remember forever…..
It certainly would be for me!
The starlight headlights kinda remind me of skoda headlights and the stripes within
I like the Ghost as well.
How many takes was it to get those automatic doors to close at the same time in the intro?
2 this time. Pathetic
@@TheStraightPipes Idea… you should do a compilation of door close takes again! I think you had something like that once, but haven’t seen that in a while.
Waiting for you guys to review the RR Spectre
Roll Royce’s are nice I’ve been in the suv in Dubai and it’s amazing when you get in a luxury car you don’t want to go and drive a standard car
I understand the clientele likes the design and while I can't afford one, I still think It definitely needs a refresh. That design has been around for about 20 years. If I had the money, I would rather have a Bentley Flying Spur at a 1/3 of the cost.
Please also review the Ewb version of this phantom🙏☺️
It's interesting to see how quickly the RR depreciates.
I am sorry but that little yellow triangle sticker in the headlights on my 800k car would drive me nuts lol.
Must be a dream going thru malibu cyn rd. Gorgeous car.
Feel better angelic jake.
I thought RR was too classy to publish power data. Disappointing. Anyway they haven’t addressed the two most important components: the driver and the road. If you live in the UK with a roundabout every 1/4 of a mile that’s going to make you seasick or in a city where you’re only going to get smoothly whisked 100m to the traffic jam you might consider investing the money in a flat near to your office.
Thank you GUYS! 😇😇😇🌌♾️💜
