The insatiable appetite for luxury cars has brought about the Rolls-Royce Ghost to a whole new level. Saying that, what exactly does it mean by a whole new level? It's like utilising the power of technology to improve a certain work of art. From The Terminator to Transformers. Or perhaps from a non-coloured Nokia cell phone to a dashing iPhone.

 

Or it could just be from Phantom to Ghost.

While it's hard not to make it too big a deal, for this car, it could just be remotely related to most people's idea of it. How not to? With the price of $969,000 (as of 21 March 2010) and the world-infamous flying lady mascot on the nose, the Ghost is a heavyweight car.

 

The all new Rolls-Royce Ghost has alternatively been described as small or baby Rolls. It's because this luxurious car is bigger than the Mercedes-Benz S-Class but slightly smaller than the Rolls-Royce Phantom. Since 2003, when the brand was transferred from Volkswagen to BMW, the line has included just one model - the Phantom and its four different variations. Needless to say, all that has changed with the introduction of the stunning new model.

 

Nevertheless, the Ghost is envisioned more as a driver's car. It includes requisite technologies like iPod interface and automatic-distance cruise control, which also means a performance oriented bodywork, an eight-speed automatic transmission and a 6.6-litre twin-turbo V12. It

    The Act of Creation

    “WHAT’S A GOOD USERNAME?!” Such was the source of my agony as I was handed a pair of figurative keys to MyAutoBlog. I’d asked the colleague from IT who was helping me set up this account if I really had to make an account with my work email, hoping I could use the username that came with my personal MCF account instead. “yes”, in lowercase no less, was what I got. Oh well. After a good 10 minutes (I think), I decided on this username (a reference I hope someone gets), juvenile and

    Hard Enduro: The ultimate motorsport?

    I enjoy motorsports of all kinds - four wheels good, two wheels better. And while watching them on TV (okay let's be honest Youtube, who even watches TV nowadays) is fun, getting to partake in anything even remotely resembling it, even in a highly truncated, totally superficial manner, is even more exciting.  Earlier this year, I did a short 2.5 day off-road riding 'tour', and it was easily the hardest, most physically demanding 2.5 days I've ever spent on a motorbike. It really gives you a
