Have you seen the stories about white being the most "popular" car in the world right now? We thought that was the wrong way of looking at things, since white is the cheapest color offered on most budget cars, meaning it's not people's first choice, it's their only choice.
But there's one place where white really is popular, and that's Dubai. There, a lot of luxury car are bought in white. And what do you know! The very first Rolls Royce Wraith registered there is a very nice shade of white.
Of course, the new coupe has got vanity license plates, which could mean a member of the royal family owns it.
The Wraith is a two-door version of the Ghost, a rival to the Bentley Continental GT, though much bigger and more expensive than its rival. It also has "more" under the hood, a 6.6-liter V12 engine with 624 bhp and 590 pound-feet of torque which is claimed pushes this goliath of the coupe world to 100 km/h in just 4.6 seconds.
Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
