New York 2015: Rolls-Royce Wraith 'Inspired By Film' Edition Revealed
Bringing the first press day of the 2015 New York Auto Show to a close in cinematic fashion comes the Rolls-Royce Wraith ‘Inspired By Film’ edition.
Honoring the automaker’s cinematic history in films like “Goldfinger,” “The Thomas Crowne Affair” and “The Great Gatsby,” the Wraith was built for a short film to coincide with the original model’s launch, “And the World Stood Still,” which was recently accepted by the British Film Institute National Archives according to AutoGuide.
Under the hood is a 624-horsepower twin-turbo V12, while the inside is adorned in Anthraite leather with Casden Tan accents and Maccassar Ebony open pore paneling, all draped in two-tone silver and jubilee silver paint, and topped with a solid silver “Spirit of Ecstasy” hood ornament.

- Varezhka Maybe the volume was not big enough to really matter anyways, but losing a “passenger car” for a mostly “light truck” line-up should help Subaru with their CAFE numbers too.
- Varezhka For this category my car of choice would be the CX-50. But between the two cars listed I’d select the RAV4 over CR-V. I’ve always preferred NA over small turbos and for hybrids THS’ longer history shows in its refinement.
- AZFelix I would suggest a variation on the 'fcuk, marry, kill' game using 'track, buy, lease' with three similar automotive selections.
- Formula m For the gas versions I like the Honda CRV. Haven’t driven the hybrids yet.
- SCE to AUX All that lift makes for an easy rollover of your $70k truck.

The name is very corny, though the interior is beautiful (minus the constellation headliner - this isn't a Town Car limo). But when it comes down to it, I don't want my RR inspired by film. I want it inspired by Britishness, and money.
I want "The Grapes of Wraith" edition.
