Spotted: Biggest car ever!
I was just coming home from GST, as I was getting on the Freeway I notice this huge boat of a car, so I did a double take... It was a brand new Rolls Royce Phantom convertible! Just like the one they featured in top gear a on season 10 (I think it was season 10).

Man, no wonder people stare at that car, it's so big that it makes my STi feel like a micro machine!


Anyone else seen one of these things in real life? Probably didn't help that there was a miata in front of it...

Wonder why they named it the "Phantom" rather than the "Look at Me"?

Never seen the convertible Phantom in person, but did drive next to a regular Phantom in I-5 in LA for awhile and was amazed on how big it was.

The owner probably made a lot of money in that rough neighborhood.
