The Rolls-Royce Wraith was introduced at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show as the two-door variant of the Ghost. It is also the fastest and most powerful Rolls ever built, with a 6.6-liter V12 producing 624 horsepower and 590 lb-ft of torque. 0-60 mph is accomplished in 4.4 seconds and its top speed is around 200 mph. The sole gearbox option is an eight-speed automatic and it weighs less than the Bentley Continental GT, one of its chief competitors. Also, the Wraith is absolutely gorgeous from pretty much every angle. In other news, a drop-top variant of the Ghost/Wraith is planned for the 2016 model year, and is tipped to revive the Corniche nameplate. The Rolls-Royce Wraith is one of my favorite luxury coupes, along with the new Mercedes-Benz S-class coupe. It combines elegance and speed evenly, but isn't typically used for racing of any sort, which is fine with me.
