“Rolls-Royce isn’t pretending this car is sporty, or fast, or exciting. It is, instead, simply designed for one purpose: to be a luxury car. To be the luxury car. And it is oh, so successful: I honestly don’t remember ever driving a car that was so relaxing, and comfortable, and quiet, in my entire life. Even the Bentley Mulsanne I drove a few months ago had far more of a sporty flair compared to this Rolls-Royce. The Silver Spur is designed to let you do one thing, and one thing only: relax.” – Doug DeMuro
