2013 Rolls-Royce Phantom Used Price Estimates

Few cars make such extravagant promises as the 2013 Rolls-Royce Phantom, but this gargantuan limousine makes good on them all. Unspeakably lavish and powerful, this super sedan is blessed with solid BMW engineering, making it nearly as enjoyable from the driver seat as it is from the backseat.

If there is one word to describe the 2013 Rolls-Royce Phantom, it is superlative. As the flagship of the world's most iconic luxury car brand, the Phantom is, and must be, the most grandiose expression of luxury motoring of our time.

Introduced for 2003 as the first Rolls-Royce automobile developed under the stewardship of parent company BMW, the Phantom is a tall, upright, chrome-drenched carriage that evokes the huge limousines that earned Rolls-Royce its distinction as the epitome of luxury transportation. At the same time, the Phantom appears crisp, tailored, and thoroughly modern.

For 2013, the Phantom receives a mild face-lift, with new quad-element, full-LED headlights above linear LED turn signals, a one-piece Pantheon grille surround and smooth bumper, new wheel finishes and a redesigned rear bumper.

Inside, the Phantom contains all of the spoils imaginable in an automobile, and whether you choose the standard or the extra-roomy extended-wheelbase version, the presentation of luxury is overt and seemingly endless. Butter-soft leather, hand-polished wood and lustrous metal cover everything you might conceivably touch. Stepping into the rear seating area through the rear-hinged "coach" doors is a particularly decadent experience, and once inside, you may want to take your shoes off and run your toes through the deep-pile lambswool carpets.

Despite its formidable size and mass, the Phantom is impressively swift and handles with surprising responsiveness around turns. The slightly smaller and less expensive Bentley Mulsanne feels somewhat sportier from behind the wheel, though not even the sleek Mulsanne can touch the Rolls' sense of occasion. Indeed, the 2013 Rolls-Royce Phantom remains the ultimate expression of luxury motoring, so if the best of the best is what you demand, this is it.

The 2013 Rolls-Royce Phantom is an ultra-luxury sedan available in base and extended-wheelbase (EWB) body styles, with seating for five passengers, or four when equipped with the individual rear seat configuration. It is available in one very complete trim level that includes 21-inch cast-aluminum wheels; an electronically adjustable air suspension; front and rear parking sensors; a 360-degree camera system; power-closing rear coach doors; a power-closing trunk lid; soft-close front doors; a sunroof; dual-zone automatic climate control; heated front and rear seats; driver memory functions; a power tilt-and-telescoping steering wheel; a wool or cashmere headliner; and two umbrellas, hidden in the front doors.

Standard electronics include Bluetooth; keyless ignition/entry; a navigation system with an 8.8-inch display, a console-mounted multifunction controller and 3D mapping; voice command functionality; and Rolls-Royce Assist emergency telematics with Concierge Service. Audio is provided by a Harman Kardon Lexicon Logic 7 system with 15 speakers (including two floor-mounted subwoofers); discrete surround-sound capability; a glovebox-mounted six-DVD changer; USB and auxiliary audio inputs; and satellite radio with a lifetime subscription.

The Phantom EWB adds 10 inches of rear legroom, four-zone climate control and reversible footrests.

As one might expect, the options list is vast and includes things more likely to be found in one's home than one's car, including individual rear lounge seats, a rear theatre (an entertainment system with two DVD screens), a rear bar, a cigar humidor, glass cabinets, a refrigerator, mother of pearl inlays and a "Starlight" roofliner with embedded pin lights emulating nighttime stars. The paint and trim combinations are endless, since, like many top-tier carmakers, Rolls-Royce will mix paint and dye leather to match any color sample a customer brings into the dealership.

One notable new option is the Dynamic package, which adds stiffer antiroll bars (to sharpen up the big sedan's handling); sportier suspension, transmission and brake calibrations; a thicker-rimmed steering wheel and visible exhaust tips.

The 2013 Rolls-Royce Phantom is powered by a 6.7-liter V12 that produces 453 horsepower and 531 pound-feet of torque mated to a new eight-speed automatic transmission. Rolls-Royce claims that the standard Phantom accelerates from a standstill to 60 mph in 5.7 seconds, while the larger EWB is a tenth slower. All Phantoms are rear-wheel drive.

The EPA rates the Phantom's fuel economy at 11 mpg city/19 mpg highway and 14 mpg combined, which reflects a 1 mile-per-gallon improvement in highway mileage from 2012.

The 2013 Rolls-Royce Phantom safety equipment includes antilock brakes, traction control and stability control, active front head restraints, side airbags for front occupants and full-length side curtain airbags. In addition, front and rear parking sensors are standard, as is a camera system that shows rear, side and overhead views to assist you in parking this very large sedan.

The 2013 Rolls-Royce Phantom is no sports car, but for a vehicle that is larger and heavier than many full-size cargo vans, its performance has proven to be nothing short of astounding. We haven't sampled the Phantom with the new Dynamic package, but we've been impressed by the super sedan's handling in previous tests. The steering is light and communicative, and the Roller remains remarkably composed and stable as it goes around turns. Although the engineers have done much to mask the Phantom's incredible mass, drivers should respect the fact that it weighs nearly 3 tons and can only be pushed so hard before the laws of physics apply.

The V12's thrust, however, is almost unbelievable at even the lightest touch of the gas pedal. And it is all but silent in operation, making full-throttle acceleration a somewhat eerie experience from the driver's lofty perch. The ride quality remains supple, per the car's primary mission to provide tranquil transportation for the most privileged of VIPs.

With its bolt-upright dashboard, clocklike instruments, thin-rimmed steering wheel and throne-like seats, the interior of the Phantom is decidedly formal, though certain color and wood treatments liven the space up considerably, and the hand-craftsmanship lends a palpable sense of warmth. The Phantom is full of beautiful details, too, including up to 43 pieces of multilayer wood veneers cut from the same log to ensure uniformity. Every square foot of leather inside the Phantom come from cows raised in meadows free of thorns and barbed wire, reducing natural markings on the hides.

Located behind a panel containing the Phantom's center-mounted clock is a new 8.8-inch information screen that enhances usability of the car's many controls, including a split-screen interface that lets the driver control things like the radio while displaying the navigation map as well. Eight memory keys below the screen provide bookmarks for radio presets and one-touch recall for your favorite navigation destinations. The entire setup is very similar to the iDrive interface in BMW models (right down to the iDrive-style multifunction controller on the Phantom's console), and generally speaking, it works well, though if you're the driver, you'll want to take some time to familiarize yourself with its menus before you hit the road.

While that's all very nice, the Phantom's rear seating area is where you really want to be. The wide rear bench seats three in comfort, or two in even more comfort when the individual rear seats are ordered. With the rear seats set back deep into the car's body, it can get a little dark, especially with the available curtains drawn, but we expect that is exactly how many Phantom owners like it. Perhaps the best thing about the Phantom's rear quarters is getting in and out through its rear-hinged doors, which have integrated umbrellas in the event that your act of egress occurs during a downpour.

The Rolls-Royce Phantom is among the few cars in which you’re just as likely to find the owner in the rear seat as the driver’s seat. Whether the person piloting this immense vehicle is the owner or a hired hand, he or she will be treated to an extremely hushed, comfortable ride. Serenity is the adjective of choice here. With a stated zero-to-60-mph time of under 6 seconds, the Phantom’s massive V12 engine easily hustles the equally enormous car with aplomb, but speed is not the objective here. Even with the steering wheel’s “S” button engaged to stiffen the suspension and adjust the throttle response, the 2013 Phantom feels more phantom than devil – which is the whole point.

REAR-HINGED DOORSEntering or exiting the rear seat of the Rolls-Royce Phantom sedan is an elegant affair thanks to rear-hinged doors that open wide. In sedans the rear passenger doors close automatically with the touch of a button, while coupes and convertibles allow driver and passenger a similarly grand entrance – or exit – with rear-hinged doors. RETRACTING HOOD ORNAMENTThere are a lot of classy things about a Rolls-Royce Phantom, but among the nicest touches is the famed Spirit of Ecstasy ornament that flies over every hood. These are valuable commodities to be sure, so when the car is not in use the ornament can be automatically retracted, which just looks slick.

The interior of the Rolls-Royce Phantom is elegant but surprisingly simple, with an emphasis on leather and wood vs. tech gizmos. Instead of being festooned with myriad buttons, knobs and switches, the Rolls takes a minimalist approach, even with the new iDrive-like system from corporate owner BMW that allows the driver to control navigation, radio and other functions with a rotary dial and planetary buttons. When not in use, the whole setup hides out of sight. Other aspects of the Phantom have also caught up to modern times and include an 8.8-inch color screen, a multi-camera system that presents a virtual bird’s-eye view of the car when reversing, and a USB port.

The Rolls-Royce Phantom is, in a word, enormous. Even the “smallest” versions, the coupe and convertible, are more than 18 feet long, or about 4 feet longer than a Honda Civic. The 2013 Phantom sedan is even larger at over 19 feet, while the Extended Wheelbase version takes the cake at just under 20 feet in length, making it a proverbial “land yacht.” That seafaring analogy isn’t far off. Phantom models boast plenty of wooden parts mixed with metal, and the convertible (dubbed “Drophead Coupe”) is inspired by J-class yachts of the 1930s and stands out with a massive rear teak deck that impresses with the top down.

Like other Rolls-Royce cars, 2013 Phantom models are often bespoke, meaning they are ordered with custom features to suit a buyer’s taste. What all owners can expect are an 8.8-inch color display that can hide behind the dash, a LOGIC7 Surround Sound system by Harman, and a central control module to command infotainment features. With the 2013 revision, Rolls-Royce Phantoms now offer full LED headlights as standard, while a multi-camera system gives drivers a virtual bird’s-eye view of the car when in reverse. Lambswool carpet and the finest of leather further coddle passengers.

With a bespoke Rolls-Royce Phantom, what you order is pretty much limited to your imagination. Some popular configurations include a two-tone paint scheme, a variety of 21-inch wheels, a gold-plated Spirit of Ecstasy hood ornament, the Dynamic Package for a sportier ride, and a glovebox that contains a humidor or pen set. Headliner options include leather or cashmere so you can literally have only the best above your head. A theater configuration allows rear-seat passengers to watch TV or DVDs on twin 12-inch screens that fold into the backs of the front seats.

2013 Rolls-Royce Phantom models are rear-wheel drive and powered by a big, naturally-aspirated V12 engine. Not long ago, Rolls-Royce would merely say that power was “adequate” to move its massive cars. Nowadays the British automaker doesn’t mind backing up that assertion with data: The Phantom sedan can accelerate from zero to 60 mph in just 5.7 seconds, while the coupe and convertible models can do it in 5.6 seconds. A “power reserve” gauge shows the car using just 10 percent of available power while cruising at 70 mph. Sedan and convertible Phantoms are electronically-limited to a top speed of 149 mph, and coupes go up to 155 mph. All models use a new, 8-speed ZF automatic transmission.6.75-liter V12453 horsepower @ 5,350 rpm531 lb-ft of torque @ 3,500 rpmEPA city/highway fuel economy: 11/18 mpg

The Rolls-Royce Phantom is in rarified territory as an ultra-luxury, hand-built car. Its price is correspondingly stratospheric. A 2013 Phantom Sedan starts at just over $ 400,000 before options, and the Extended Wheelbase version starts at over $ 470,000. A coupe model starts at over $ 430,000, while a convertible, like the EWB, starts at over $ 470,000. At these prices, the 2013 Phantom is pretty much king of the luxury hill. Even a Bentley Continental is roughly half the price. We expect the Phantom’s resale value to be marginal, with the value easily dropping by $ 150,000 or more within a few years.
