Rolls-Royce
Rolls-Royce sits above the market it nominally shares: the Phantom is the reference for automotive luxury, the Cullinan transferred that gravity to SUV form, and the Spectre proved electrification suits 'waftability' perfectly — silence was always the house product. Under BMW, build integrity matched the mythology, and Bespoke commissions (starlight headliners, one-off everything) drive both margins and mystique. Ownership is its own economy of chauffeurs and residencies. For this site, Rolls defines the ceiling against which every 'luxury' claim gets measured.
