Honoring the burgeoning new Chinese market for their automobiles, in 2012 Rolls-Royce introduced a special-edition Phantom that celebrated the Year of the Dragon. The car came with nearly all available factory options and accessories possible on a new Phantom, as well as with numerous special touches that included gold pinstriping, dragon designs inlaid into the wood and embroidered onto the leather seats, and special hand-painted dragon badges.
For obvious reasons most of these cars were delivered to China, at a cost of over $1 million USD, and in fact the Calumet Collection’s example, sold new by the O’Gara Coach Company of Beverly Hills, is believed to have been the only one supplied to the U.S. Still in outstanding, nearly new condition throughout, it has been part of the Collection since 2015 and has obviously enjoyed superb care, now showing just 13,286 miles.
The interior of this automobile must be experienced to be believed; rear compartment passengers are nestled into supportive bucket seats, with a center console that houses entertainment controls and a cocktail bar with crystal decanters, rocks glasses, and a pair of flutes for the chilled Champagne in the refrigerator. Embroidered throw pillows are offered to cushion one’s head, and the seats are fully power-adjustable for comfort. Most impressive of all is the famous fiber optic Starlight Headliner, which, with the interior lights dimmed, creates a dazzling effect of being under the night sky.
The car is offered with a dragon necklace and ring, a gold leaf dragon plaque, and the presentation box delivered with it in 2012, supplied in a safe in the trunk, as well as the original correct accessories. It is a rare example of one of the most delightful modern sedans, a favorite of Heads of State and captains of industry alike – uniquely trimmed for the 21st century.
