Back on the first official press day of the 2016 Geneva Motor Show, British luxury car manufacturer Rolls-Royce delivered the first highly bespoke extended wheelbase Rolls-Royce Phantom to Louis XIII Holdings joint chairman Stephen Hung.
The delivery is the first custom built extended wheelbase Phantom out of a 30 car order, marking it just the beginning of a colossal order representing the largest single commission in Rolls-Royce history. The highly bespoke 30 New Rolls-Royce Phantoms are exclusively handcrafted for THE 13 hotel located in the Chinese Las Vegas, Macau.
The red custom built Phantom was handed over to its new owner during an official ceremony by Rolls-Royce Motor Cars CEO Torsten Müller-Ötvös, who had the following to say: “When luxury visionaries like Stephen Hung seek to realise even the boldest of visions, they look to those with the knowledge and skills to deliver the gift of true Bespoke luxury.” He additionally commented: “These remarkable examples of contemporary Rolls-Royce design reaffirm our position as the only marque capable of realising deeply personal commissions. Once delivered, these exceptional motor cars will stand with THE 13 hotel as landmark sights in Macau.”
All the luxury coaches that are soon shipped to China receive the same specially formulated “Stephen Red” paint finish as seen on the photo. Further exterior additions include a hand-painted twin-coachline in gold and bespoke 21-inch wheels that are equally finished in ‘Stephen Red’.
Similar to the exterior, we find the red and gold back in the luxury interior. The color scheme finds its origin in THE 13’s hotel theme. A cool detail is a gold custom built clock that was co-designed with master jeweller Graff. All 30 custom Rolls-Royce Phantom’s are expected to be delivered before the hotel’s official opening in late summer 2016.
