A BMW 7-series dressed in a bespoke suit from Goodwood? Yes yes. No worries, I don't frown upon it. VAG used the underpinnings of the Phaeton to develop a more affordable and sporty Bentley -- and they got the former one right. The latter? Not so much.

The continental GT and even worse, the Flying Spur are heavy and have so far received little or no praise in the department of agility and sporty road dynamics. BMW AG's Ghost though, does seem to possess some athleticism that make it applicable for an owners lust to do some brisk driving, heading to Cipriani off Berkeley Square for a lunch.

Will get some personal time with the car during the press days at the IAA next month.

Honestly, except for older (40 years ago or more) Rolls-Royces, most of them have been a good size. RR hasn't really been "fat' like that. Only until the Phantom and now the ghost.

It doesn't look bad in dark colors, but in white it is truly a whale.

Interesting fact that BMW are currently mulling over the Ghost DropHead Coupe as either a two door or a four door DropHead model , they have design proposals for both, making it the first production four door premium Cabrio.
But we will see a regular Coupe next like the bigger brother they will get some minor detail changes at the front to distinguish them from the standard Ghost.
