    A slap in the face of British taste: Mansory turned the Rolls-Royce Ghost into a “bog monster”

    German tuner Mansory regularly takes new depths of kitsch, which has earned him fame in the world of exclusive cars. The green Rolls-Royce Ghost, made for a client from the Middle East, is shocking not only in appearance, but also in acceleration dynamics.

    Mansory loves the bright colors of the yellow-green spectrum, the clients of the infamous tuning studio from the Bavarian town of Brand also love them and even ask Mansory specialists to come up with something for them, from which their eyes would literally climb on their foreheads. Actually, there is nothing extreme in the color scheme of the Rolls-Royce Ghost shown in the photographs – on some Lamborghini, the range chosen by the customer would look quite organic, but for a noble aristocratic British sedan, this, of course, is too much.

    The current second-generation Ghost appeared in the Rolls-Royce line in 2020 – many consider it the most elegant regular model of the British brand released in the 21st century, that is, the image is absolutely complete, perfect, worthy of being exhibited in a museum. But tuners, of course, always know what and how to improve in any masterpiece, and you don’t have to point your finger at Mansory, for which “nothing is sacred”, because even Brabus offered its customers a comprehensively modified Ghost last year.

    The Mansory version looks angrier than the Brabus, and even in a calm black and white, like the demo on the studio's website, it's all about the aerodynamic plumage that is more magnificent than the Brabus. Mansory equips the Rolls-Royce Ghost with a new square-socket bumper with additional lighting, a new rear bumper with deep diffuser pits, spoilers above the rear window and on the trunk lid, extended side sills and a bunch of other carbon fiber bling.

    In the car in the photos, the body kit is made of the so-called forged carbon, stylized as malachite, which goes well with the main acid green body color. The hood is entirely “malachite”, on its front edge there is a legendary figurine “Spirit of Ecstasy” mercilessly drenched in greenery. Just the sight of this disfigured figurine can shock the intelligent British public, but the client, as they say, asked for hardcore, so get it and sign it. Complete the look with huge black FS.23 wheels from the Mansory collection.

    Intrusions into the interior are more moderate, but here, too, the British sedan received a generous set of carbon fiber panels, yellow contrasting leather inserts and “malachite » door sills with Mansory logo. The Rolls-Royce badges have been removed all over the body, including the steering wheel hub.

    And, of course, Mansory did their magic on the 6.75-liter V12 ” British “: in stock, it produces a maximum of 600 hp. and 900 Nm, and now thanks to more efficient turbochargers, a sports exhaust system and a new control program – 720 hp. and 1020 Nm. Acceleration time to 100 km/h was reduced from 4.7 seconds for the factory version of the Black Badge to 4.4 seconds. Brabus, by the way, offers a more modest boost – 700 hp, 950 Nm and 4.6 s to “hundreds”.

    Mansory almost never names the price of his cars, but it's clear that with the price of the original Rolls-Royce Ghost comes out a fortune.
