Test Drive: $400000 Rolls-Royce Wraith a set of wheels to savor - The Providence Journal
But its power builds quickly and the shoves grow rapidly to Pacific waves of serious, steady power. Stay on the accelerator hard, and the big Roller will sprint to 60 in an astounding 4. 3 seconds, according to Car and Driver — quick enough to embarrass many muscle cars. In addition, the Wraith’s magical engine is tied to an eight-speed automatic that uses its navigation-satellite system to somehow anticipate the roads, curves and ramps ahead and pre-select the proper gear. Shifts were so imperceptible that the Wraith sometimes felt electric-powered. The stunning cranberry-colored interior had a large, flat dashboard wrapped in smooth leather and curving gently over a black instrument panel. A gorgeous slab of polished metal provided trim for the dash, while slabs of black Tudor oak — a $9,975 option — added heft to the door panels. Source: www.providencejournal.com
