first announced the Red Phantom in May. Rolls-Royce finally revealed the car to honor 115 years of Goodwood tradition. The stately sedan was commissioned to support RED’s fight to end AIDS.

Each Rolls-Royce is different, but this one is special.PhantomIt takes it to the next level by including tiny crystal particles in the last layers of Magma Red’s bespoke color. Five layers of paint are used. Each layer is hand-polished for five hours to achieve a flawless finish.

The “expertly chosen” wood veneers are also hand-finished and have six coats of lacquer to ensure the best possible look. It’s not possible to cut corners when it comes RollsRoyce models. This unique Phantom uses nine different leather hides, with a mix of Arctic White and Mugello Red accents.

The Phantom’s Starlight Headliner, which is a fancy Starlight Headliner, adopts a Mugello red theme with 1,600 fiber optic cables running along the length of its long ceiling. The Phantom’s Spirit of Ecstasy car also features a previously undiscovered feature: a single-piece glass facia across the instrument panel containing “The Gallery” is made of Mugello Red leather in a “cleanroom environment” to give the luxurious cabin a unique look.

Rolls-Royce will display the Red Phantom at the One Thousand Museum Miami on December 4, to mark the beginning of an online-only auction by RM Sotheby’s, which will end December 13.
