With that price tag they missed a 1 on the horse power.

Horsepower has never been RR's gig. For many years the specification for horsepower and torque were simply the word "adequate".

No but you could probably buy a gas powered a couple years ago for around half of that. 300k increase in 3 years

People who are spending 300k plus on a car probably aren’t worried about spending 600k a few years later but I’m not seeing it.

The Spectre starts at ~$425k which is about $25k more than a Ghost and $75k less than a Phantom. For reference, the Phantom has gone up $35k in the last 3 years. Part of the issue is the price is listed in Canadian dollars and as tested. With RR it is easy to add $100k in options or a couple of million if you go completely bespoke.

You see RR on the roads in UAE pretty regular. They are ugly AF to look at.

That is one ugly car and they could not have picked an uglier color.

I can't speak to the Spectre because it is a bit of an unknown quantity but you will have a hard time finding someone that will argue RR doesn't build cars to a higher standard than anyone else. Probably the closest is Bentley and there is a fairly large gap between them and RR.

Is it Puce or Mauve? Regardless, hideous color. I wonder if the armrest is covered in lace doilies and the interior smells of a grandmother’s old perfume.

It looks like it rolled out of a rim shop downtown.

That vehicle is hideous.

Possibly the target demographic. Rap Stars, ballas, and young oil royalty.

Poor people problems. Don’t worry, I’m poor too, I just know enough to realize RR isn’t about horse power. That’s more of a Dodge thing
