  • If a Mercedes S-Class, BMW 7-Series or Aston Martin Rapide just isn't exclusive enough for you, Rolls Royce has you covered. We had the opportunity to spend a few hours with the Black Badge version of the Ghost which you can think of as the blacked out trim package of the "baby" roller.

    Alex, there's no need to apologize for reviewing a non-mainstream car. I'm just glad you and the members of AVA are even more credible and respectable to the auto industry.

  • @joetacchino4470
    @joetacchino4470 6 лет назад +1

    Alex, don't worry about those who can't figure you reviewing a high end car. That's why you guys created AVA, on course, so enjoy it..and we enjoy it too! No need to be self conscious about it at all.

    Alex I love when you do these reviews of more expensive and rare cars. Always great to see something different on your channel and you do such a great job of reviewing every car so in depth.

    Well executed Alex, keep up the great work that you put in every review. I appreciate it.

    Alex, I really appreciate that you'll tackle everything from a Kia Rio or Mazda 2 to a Rolls Royce Ghost or McLaren, or anything in between. I especially appreciate that because you go through cars in a methodical, segment-based way that still provides context.
    I find that when I watch/read the more enthusiast-geared outlets, and get their over-the-top hyperbole, and claims that such-and-such is THE BEST EVER and it makes last year's model look like a pile of dog doo, and then compare that to what you have to say, I get a well-rounded sense of what's actually happening in the car world.
    In short, thanks!

    Fantastic review Alex. So nice to see a super luxury car in your review format. Sure we can't afford it, but that's not the point. In your case, the point is to review as broad a selection of vehicles as possible, and RR Ghost perfectly fills the heretofore super luxury void in your video list. And unlike a magazine, it's free.

    Great Review. I know most of us can never afford one. But we have seen how great it is inside. Please keep doing the high end car reviews, never know, one day any one of us can own one. These cars even after 100 years look and work great. Thats the beauty of Rolls Royce.

    Great review Alex... I'm not from the USA... so basically all his car reviews (Audis/ Jaguars/ Volvos/ BMWs / Benz/ Lexus) are all high end... This is just a different class to those vehicles ,and I enjoy all his reviews.

  • @mountainman6172

    Funnily enough, I cannot afford either of them. At least, for now. 😎✌

    @2:10 "Restrained and elegant is definitely the mantra at Rolls Royce when it comes to design" as we look at the very unassuming rear end of the car.
    @2:40 We get our first shot of the interior and what the hell happened to their mantra?? LOL

    @sgbradley 6 лет назад

    A true car which is built by hand and is the Crown Jewel of luxury will never lose it's value. Just like the best SUV "Toyota" or the best 4x4 "Jeep" and the best pickup or compact car, they will all hold their value even after four years! Great review Alex but sometimes second best is just as good "Bentley" but nothing is nicer than a "Rolls Royce".

    • @kylosolo6128
      @kylosolo6128 6 лет назад

      Yeah because this car is marketed towards extremely rich people, not just you LOL. And as Alex said in the video, you can customize the interior as you wish, as long as you pay extra to RR

    you should've criticized the hell out of the phone dock at @6:57. That is commonly found in BMW vehicles and it is known for just taking a huge amount of space. NO smartphones can connect to that booth unless you pay for it and you cannot uninstall that dock on your own.

    If you can wait 10 years, you can have this vehicle for $30,000-$40,000. Of course, it will be out of warranty by then, but what the heck. Just park it in your living room and enjoy the seats.

    A man-sized car! What a concept. It is also understated to bland side of plain and that aint a bad thing--if the big three could wake up from their truck nightmare and make larger cars again, I think they would sell larger cars again. Not half a million dollar large cars of course.
