Rolls Royce revealed today at the Paris Motor Show the new Phantom Metropolitan Collection, of which only 20 will be made. This new special edition of the Rolls Royce Phantom Metropolitan features exquisite hand-crafted design inspired by the modern metropolis. The Phantom Metropolitan's picnic table presents occupants with an elevated view of the city, created through the expert application of 500 individual wood veneer pieces. As always Rolls Royce took special care when selecting the various wood veneers. Minute imperfections such as knots and flecks lead to instant rejection. Adjustments to the color of each piece are made through the traditional hand-process of hot-sand shading before a final inspection under magnification on a light box to ensure perfection.
Apart from the special wood, the Phantom Metropolitan's interior features Aetherius Grey leather, and a special central rear seat with 6,800 two-tone stitches that reflect an abstract image of a skyscraper. The Phantom Metropolitan also features a special clock with a rotating bezel that shows 24 great cities of the world and their time zones (Paris included). The Rolls Royce Phantom Metropolitan on display in Paris features Darkest Tungsten exterior finish. However, you can order yours with any of the 44,000 colors available on the Rolls Royce palette.
The Rolls Royce Phantom Metropolitan's price has not been disclosed.
