The Ultra Rare Rolls Royce Wraith "Inspired By Music" Was By Rock Stars, For Rock Stars

- Опубликовано: 16 июл 2022
- Today, courtesy of @Challengetheroad I am driving this incredible rare Rolls Royce Wraith "Inspired by Music" Edition car - one of just nine, and built to celebrate the connection between Rolls Royce and the world of music.
It claims to have the world's greatest stereo - but does it, and is the rest of the package good enough to really be as sporty as Rolls Royce claim?

Watching one of these being thrown up the hill at Goodwood was something else. It's almost undignified.
It was like watching the Queen run a 100m in 10secs. Left me feeling astonished and slightly inadequate.
Did you see the Dawn this year just randomly going up and down after events
I worked on these Music cars, I remember them vividly! These predate the Black Badge release, so obviously don’t have the dynamic enhancements those cars do which sharpen them up slightly.
That intro was pure gold. 11/10 should do again, James.
Fun review of a unicorn motorcar, thank you James. Love the road presence and the doors opening the other way around. Cool machine!
If a car says something about its driver... This says "my new rap album just dropped" or "I've just signed a new deal with Manchester United"
I just absolutely love this thing. The colour is fantastic, and interior is amazing.
Now we NEED a full GHOST review!…the 1st gen kind Sir. I own an F02 750 and it would be great to hear you find some comparisons. My F02 is HORRENDOUS when it comes to ANY maintenance! Absolutely terrible, maybe because it shares so much with RR. The wing/bumper cam got lost on the highway…the camera was almost $600.00 as its the same as the RR!
Keep up the good work my friend! So many YT reviewers out there?.., but us subscribers all love YOU and how you do it!, so keep being you and your success will continue its growth at “its” own pace. You’re yourself, no gimmicks, and no crazy thumbnail/clickbait…us TRUE car folks appreciate that in this day and age fyi.
Be safe Jay! ❤️
I offered Jay the opportunity to review my Ghost but alas he never responded.
That intro. Love it 😂. Great review and pretty underappreciated imo.
Great video. I particularly loved you're reenactment of Eowyn killing the Witch King. Brilliant.
Absolutely a beautiful machine and worthy of your job 😀
James it’s time you went on a road trip across Europe with a car like this !
it would be EXTREMELY unwise to drive this elephant through ANY old European capital's downtown area, where even an E class feels huge and you always barely have a couple inches room between you and the parked cars.
@@anastassiosperakis2869 You sound so boring ! I spend half the year driving 30k a year in Europe in a range of vehicles of this size and have no problems - You need to live a little my friend ! Your on this planet once then you die !
Absolutely fantastic video. Thank you for saying that about the bass, it is almost criminal that Rolls would over look it. The black interior seems so cheap and really lets it down.
The sense of girth and terror is this car you described is accurate because that left camera I felt all the B-roll from that I was waiting for hedge to knock the mirror off.
Looking forward to the next video. Keep up the good work.
👍
It should have chamois leather in beige or cream imho.
The seats could definitely do with some contrast stitching.
the bass response and the other frequencies in this system are exceptional, this guy only knows how to criticize. Criticized this, criticized Naim for Bentley, etc. It just becomes boring, lying and unfair.
Nice video, looks like you are having fun doing it. It makes it more entertaining to watch.
Great intro, great review. keep it up👍
Beautifully filmed, absolutely loved the shots of the side of the car.
Most innovative looking Rolls Royce to date with the large self closing suicide doors and the boat looking taper to the rear windows…. Looks amazing
Jay… I’ve been a subscriber for a while and “you” are what makes your channel, what I would find fake and annoying with others is clearly just you ..
Keep up the good work
(ROTK references 😂)
You are a gifted vlogger, articulate and no flubs
I love your videos, James. You're like Quentin Willson, Jeremy Clarkson (the good parts), James May and Tiff Needell all rolled into one.
Disagree, nothing like Tiff Needell....Zero drifting on this channel!
He's no Tiff but there's some Quenters in there. Love how you didn't even mention Hammond. He seems to get more irritating the older he gets.
Such a menacing looking thing, looks more like something that was designed for a movie villain than a production car and has huge presence. You make a great case for it but I would take a Conti GT instead as I think it has more depth and I prefer my GT’s a bit more sport than comfort biased. Thanks for bringing this to the channel, great review.
All factory car audio is pants it’s quite easy to outdo factory audio even b&o Bose meridian etc by using a decent head unit high quality amps crossovers and focal or equivalent speakers. Then finely tuning the crossovers and amp filters / gains you can actually get some pretty phenomenal sound from a vehicle.
What a wonderful car! It must have been a privilege to drive it for a few days.
A car inspired by music but with a stereo system that is found lacking and at a prices most of us can only dream of.
So i won't be adding this one to my lottery win wish list.
I have driven older Roll Royces and despite their claims, they were not the best cars in the world.
You can't get it right everytime, but this one reminds me of a Jaguar X type that i owned for a few weeks
before all the faults forced me to reject it.
I can count on one hand the number of cars that i have owned since the mid 70's that i was sad to see go.
There were so many that failed to live up to the hype that surrounded them.
An expensive car does not guarantee anything, least of all live up to your expectations.
So i understand how you feel about this one James.
Great vid. On another note J, you're looking very well! Hope lifes being good to you.
Best intro yet!🤣
8:30 Trusting a car manufacturer with audio is like trusting a fox to guard your hens.
🤣🦊
My Mercedes S550 has a fantastic Harmon/Kardon surround system featuring DVD audio, which really sounds fantastic. I've owned 75 vehicles since 1994, its the best audio system of any of my previous cars.
HK audio is very hit and miss depending on the car. Good in a Mercedes, but was quite meh in the new Golf I recently drove.
@@DrFod I agree. Its a good system in the W221 S Class however.
the intro was everything, absolutely top tier content 👏👏👏
Thinks your average 5-year old.
Marvellous vid.
ty for another good video

@JayEmm on Cars .. Excellent review. Whilst no car audio system will match a proper audiophile set up at home, how does the Wraiths audio compare with the Bentley Continental GT 'Naim' set-up you tested in August 2020? As far as car audio goes .. that Naim system is one the most impressive I've experienced in a moving vehicle.
Well done rolls for making a big car that actually has steering feel.. when you need it.
Loved the Eowyn cameo good sir (applause)!
I am glad someone gets it!
Awesomeness 🤩👍
RR really did nail it with naming their cars. As a gamer, when I hear Ghost or Wraith, I immediately think of the Halo Covenant vehicles which coincidentally are known for their "soft, floaty and gliding" driving manners in the games.
The Phantom is also a Covenant vehicle too.
Now I'm waiting to see what the RR Banshee might look like 👀
Love love
Brilliant.. 👍👍
Another great story:)
James you are simply a master of your craft.
Thanks Paul
Great video, have you seen the black one around Elgin?
That's your funniest intro to date!
proper review
What an enjoyable review as always. Please please please do a review of the Phantom Drophead Coupe or Convertible. No one would do justice to that Marque more than you.
I've not driven or even been in that car to listen to the Sound System, however your comments regarding "HiFi in cars" I agree with wholly. LOVELY car though and thank you for the review and cheers to the owner.
do you agree? this guy only knows how to criticize, for him if he doesn't have a Bowers & Wilkins Nautilus in a car, the system is not good. it is something that becomes boring and tedious, in addition to being a liar
@@degou3438 Actual Hi Fi in a car is problamatic as the space inside a car does not support easy/good bass frequency reproduction.
I've seen, a wraith in the flesh at a customers, who drives it like a 80's nova.
They literally stand on the loud pedal to the protests of the tyres.
Looks big enough to park a Kei Car in the Cabin.
Vauxhall Nova or the VW based Kit Car?
@@lucian6395 the old Nova Sri. We all drove as teenagers, not the big American Nova muscle car
Is that start stop button the same as in mini?
Beautiful car
Awesome review, love your work James 👍.
Coolest first 50 seconds
Love your acting skills jay Ever thought to be an actor !
That intro had me gassing lmao
Saw one of these at the gas station..made my Veloster Turbo look like toy. Just a sick awesome look and presence
You changed shirts! Lovely car btw
Hope you filled it up on return, they are juicy beasts!
22.02, between you n the Roller that’s a great Darth Vader impression James!😂
We are a good double act
@@JayEmmOnCars 😂
My favorite Rolls.
I would have loved to have witnessed the TG-style Vauxhall-into-a-hedge scenario play out. I hope the driver is in fair order and their car is in reasonable shape, but crikey that’s a hilarious encounter. “Look darling, money is coming, better ditch the Mokka”
4:48 Shirley Bassey did the suspension geometry.
😂😂😂
instead of a normal suspension upright, it has a gold finger
"with greatness comes great price tabs" new quote
The shirt ? Tell us about the shirt. ✅
15:31
marvel superheroes 🦸♂️ shirt?
excellent 👍
That boot number plate area looks like a rover 75.
Hahaha. Wraith description is epic, that was the first thing I thought of when I saw the title! Love Stargate Atlantis!!
Otis Redding's son has one of those...have seen it in front of his studios in Macon, Ga...yes, the family is still doing well, his widow does have health issues though...
Jay and the witch king. You’re funny bro 😎
This is the first of your videos I've seen on my feed for some time despite being a subscriber. Stupid algorithm hiding your content
Yep. Have you got the bell ticked?
@@JayEmmOnCars I haven't as I find the notifications a bit intrusive. But if that's what it takes I guess I'll have to
@@jamesl5149 it's worth a shot!
@@JayEmmOnCars Go on then, you've twisted my arm
@@jamesl5149 if you aren't fully satisfied within 30 days your money back :)
You're right about not getting car audio right. I gave up with sound quality and just enjoy my 12 inch subwoofer at least I can enjoy the bass
The car is very nice but that shirt is awesome too
took me awhile but I got the reference, very good Iaughed a Lot💍
Is it just me or is the fitment on that rear quarter glass a bit wonky?
The 1700W Meridien setup in the L405 Range Rover is the best I’ve heard
Funny! Good vid
Would love to see you review some kind of Brabus James!
Someone jump in and correct me if I'm wrong; but I had always believed that Volkswagen bought the entire Rolls-Royce Motor group unaware that the Rolls Royce name was owned by the Rolls Royce aero/engineering company. BMW swooped in and bought those rights off of RR aero/engineering. Leaving VW somewhat guzumped.
thats what i thought too
"I am something of an audiophile myself".... Osbourne would be proud
"To see if it will vanquish the opposition." So, is Aston Martin worried?
Can you turn of the satellite gearbox connection and just use it normally? I think so but wondered if anyone can confirm.
Absolutely love Wraith. On my shortlist for my daily, should I win Euromillions
I have read somewhere that Rolls Royce use Lexicon equipment in the cars.
And the speaker grills remind of what Lexicon use in other cars.
Great review but if I was lucky enough to be in the market for such a car, I would search out a Phantom Coupe which is more of a looker .
Jay, just a quicky where did you get your to ? 😊
I want one!
Love that Lord of the Rings reenactment!
I do like the look of these, the front plate with the wrongly sized writing looks so off though.
Suits the car though, in that it's unbelievably naff
I saw this VERY CAR at the Blue Boys petrol station on the A21 on 17th July! Looked achingly cool. Was that the day of filming?
The irony that the only BMW with a communicative steering is a Rolls Royce. If they could apply it to the 3 series now…
LoTR nerditry is something more car reviews need.
oops there's something happening at 3:56-3:58, otherwise, cool video as always
By not having variable camshaft lift the engines sound unpleasantly strangled and “thrummy” at high rpm, being tuned only for low rpm torque.
And, I want to choose my own gears and have carbon ceramic brakes.
But the internal combustion era is now over, the future is all electric.
Hilarious video! Loved your fall-out at the beginning. Didn't change my opinion on the car. Great design but not really suited for petrol heads.
The Mark Levinson stereo in my Lexus was the best I've had to date, the B&W in my Jag is good but just not quite as good. I'm a bit of an audiophile myself so I appreciate when a stereo does what it should. Doesn't the Rolls have a sub woofer?
Question: Which Lexus did you have? Would there be any appreciable difference in quality between an IS and an LS other than ambient cabin noise? I'm looking at an IS250 and I'm limiting my selection somewhat by wanting the ML system in the car
@@Grayxyz I had the IS220D sport. It had the media pack which is the ML stereo, reverse camera and sat nav. The sat nav was next to useless but the ML stereo was great.
Rolls has 16 speakers and 2 subs
Try a new ghost black badge, that will surprise you James
Intro of the year--and the Academy Award goes to....
11:13 That's called being drunk James.
Maybe Rolls decided that with really good bass something is going to vibrate and rattle, and they can not have that.
I think for your average owner the music will be more than sufficient and as long as you can connect your phone to it. For me the biggest let down is not having seat cooling, I would have expected it to come as standard at that price.
Unfortunately the audio you can output from a generic Bluetooth codec isn't on par with the cost of the vehicle.. one should always test with CDs and then use auxiliary connection with a proper LDAC or AptX receiver for proper wireless audio.
For sure Bluetooth isn't perfect, but it was not the limitation in this case
Naim still stays winning with in car audio, also there home audio stays winning 😅
Maybe you'll get into clothes one day?! 🤣 Cheers for the review. 👍
Or, "I love a Wraith, thats why we're going to the Wraith twack" :)
